Data scientist specializing in fraud detection, ABM simulation, and NLP model fine-tuning.
What I'm looking for
I am a data scientist with three years of hands-on experience building classification models, agent-based simulations, and synthetic data pipelines for fraud detection in FinTech.
I have trained and fine-tuned Hugging Face Transformer models for financial pattern detection and information extraction, automated Python pipelines (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn) and applied best practices including Git, documentation, and code review.
I collaborate closely with product and risk teams to reduce false positives, evaluate models with ROC-AUC/PR-AUC and precision/recall metrics, and deliver reproducible, well-documented solutions that support operational decision-making.
