As a Field Data Scientist Intern on the Customer Success team, you will work directly with real-world industry data, understand the data structure and data schema, research the customer’s specific business problems, analyze the patterns within the datasets that could be utilized to describe and capture the fraud attacks, and come up with effective detection strategies.  You’ll collaborate with our Technical Account Managers (TAMs), Solution Data Scientists, and the fraud teams on the customer side, to develop, test, and implement new strategies or adjustments for existing rules, in our Risk Decision Engine. You will use manual review feedback and labels to evaluate the effectiveness of the strategies, and build dashboards to track the overall trends and detection performance metrics. If you have a passion for big data mining, real-world problem research and solving, and data-driven solution building, we’d love to hear from you!
