About Sardine

The top agentic risk platform used by leading banks and merchants worldwide to stop fraud in real-time, prevent AI-driven attacks, automate fraud & AML operations. Backed by a16z and GV.

About the role

As a Machine Learning Engineer at Sardine, you'll own the systems that make real-time fraud detection possible. Our data science team builds custom models for our clients, you build and run the platform they deploy onto, and the low-latency serving path those models score on.

What they're looking for

  • Experience building, not just using, model serving infrastructure
  • Production ownership of ML systems: you've been paged when something broke, you found out why, and you changed something so it didn't happen again
  • Strong Python, and solid software engineering fundamentals, testing, code review, CI/CD, the discipline that makes a platform other people can rely on
  • Comfort with Kubernetes, containers and a major cloud (we're mostly GCP), plus infrastructure-as-code
  • Enough understanding of models to debug them. You don't need to have trained one recently, but when precision drops you should know the difference between a data problem, a feature pipeline problem, and a model problem
  • Experience building tooling other engineers or data scientists actually use, and the judgement to know what should be self-serve and what shouldn't
