We run the world’s largest independent consumer review platform, and there’s exciting work to do as we continue to grow.

What you’ll be doing:

• Identify fraud trends and develop a deep understanding of fraudulent behavior on our platform through the use of SQL, Google BigQuery, and Google Looker.


• Formulate rules based on your analysis to mitigate fraudulent behavior across our platform.


• Carry out investigations of escalated cases related to potential misuse of our platform and assist with media, legal, and customer inquiries.
