- Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and fraud mitigation systems.
- Real-time anomaly detection based on time-series modeling.
- Clustering algorithms to group customers/shoppers.
- Supervised and semi-supervised learning methods for inference on risk patterns.
- Graph analysis and representation learning for behavior prediction and monitoring.
As Machine Learning Team Lead you will be responsible for the following:
- Building a team of data- and machine learning scientists, and helping them grow.
- Keep alignment and consistency with Amsterdam and other locations both on content and culture.
- Capable of crafting a technical strategy and roadmap for the delivery of machine learning based products, as well as its operationalization in live flows.
- Inspire, lead and energize a mixed group of high-performing engineers, including backend, frontend, machine learning, data science and analysts.
- Lead by example on technical matters and take appropriate decisions at technical level. As such we expect a thorough experience in the areas of machine learning, data science and data/ML/software engineering.
- Work very closely with a Product Manager in order to ship in time and operationalize successful products.
- Mentor, coach and grow team members, also into leadership positions if the opportunity arises.
- You have a founder mentality, capable of creating a team from the ground-up.

- You have experience leading technical teams in a high-performance tech environment.
- You see your role as an enabler for others and create an environment that makes the team deliver.
- You have experience developing, training, validating, benchmarking and monitoring machine learning algorithms in production flows.
- You have experience leveraging a big data framework to create the pipelines needed to feed the models with appropriate data.
- You have a good understanding of software engineering practices as well as data engineering and MLOps principles.
- You are able to communicate complex outcomes with clarity over a wide range of audiences.
- Product oriented mindset. Experience working with product managers in delivering successful products.
- Technologies: Extensive knowledge of data science and statistics techniques, toolsets and algorithms, such as e.g. Spark, Scikit-Learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch, XGBoost, Pandas, MLFlow or similar MLOps frameworks, Airflow.
- A strong statistics/mathematics background is a plus.
