About our Fraud Tech Team you’ll be joining
Our mission is to build a robust fraud platform dedicated to outsmarting fraudsters attempting to sneak past our defenses. With one of the most sophisticated tech stacks in the company, our work involves not just combating fraud but also continuously refining and simplifying our stack and processes to stay ahead in the game.

Our recent triumph involves the launch of our latest blocking service, a cutting-edge solution designed to halt fraudsters in their tracks. By leveraging information from across our business, we’re setting new benchmarks in preventing repeat offenders from making a comeback. We are now increasing the granularity of our fraud checks, extending them to cover more cases, and integrating with more advanced machine learning models to stay ahead of emerging threats. Additionally, we are committed to refactoring some of our legacy services to enhance performance and reliability. These initiatives, along with our ongoing efforts to boost the efficiency of our fraud agents, underscore our relentless dedication to fortifying our defenses against fraud.
