SEON is the command center for fraud prevention and AML compliance, helping thousands of companies worldwide stop fraud, reduce risk and protect revenue. Powered by 900+ real-time, first-party data signals, SEON enriches customer profiles, flags suspicious behavior and streamlines compliance workflows - all from one place. SEON provides richer data, more flexible and transparent analysis, and faster time to value than any other provider on the market. We’ve helped companies reduce fraud by 95% and achieve 32x ROI, and we’re growing fast, thanks to our partnerships with some of the world’s most ambitious digital brands like Revolut, Wise, and Bilt.

You will join SEON's Engineering team, reporting to the Director of Engineering. As a Staff Software Architect, you will embed with our Customer Platform and Scoring engineering teams, helping define feasibility during product research and shaping the technical vision.

Together these teams own the path a customer request follows through SEON: the platform customers configure and use, and the scoring engine that turns SEON’s vast dataset into a decision. Architectural challenges include multi-tenant isolation, integrating external data vendors within cost and latency limits, low-latency rule and model evaluation, scaling applications, and privacy and consent constraints on shared data.
