Sardine
Forward Deployed AI Engineer
Why it's interesting
300+ banks and fintechs across 70 countries, $145M from a16z, Visa, and Experian — Sardine wants an FDE to train custom fraud-fighting agents inside client environments and prove causal impact with its own eval pipelines. Fincrime is quietly one of the densest FDE verticals nobody puts on a slide.
The role
Embed directly with clients to translate ambiguous fincrime operational challenges into concrete technical architectures. Train and deploy custom AI agents to prevent fraud and automate complex compliance workflows, and establish the AI-risk metrics, datasets, and evaluation pipelines that measure the causal impact of deployed agents. Requires 5+ years in Data Science or Applied AI and strong Python/SQL. Remote-first, US.
