Job description

Amazon's Account Integrity Team (AIT) within Buyer Risk Prevention (BRP) protects hundreds of millions of customers by identifying and stopping fraudulent activity before it causes harm. The Risk Mining function is where human ingenuity meets machine learning - our team detects emerging modus operandi (MOs) that automated systems alone can't catch, and feeds those signals back into scalable upstream defenses. Nowhere is that fight sharper than in Anti-Automation, where we go head-to-head with bots, scripted attacks, and automated abuse that evolves by the hour. If you want to lead a team whose daily work directly translates into customer trust at global scale, this is the role.

• Set and uphold the quality bar for investigations, deep dives, and MO documentation, and own vertical-level metrics for detection volume, speed, and precision.
