Founding Device Fingerprinting Engineer

Prelude

Remote · FranceSalary not disclosedfull-timePrelude Careers

Fingerprinting is becoming a first-class pillar of Prelude's fraud detection engine — and this is the founding role that will define it. You will own the entire fingerprinting surface: architecture, research, production systems, and eventually the team we build around you.

Responsibilities

  • Owning the fingerprinting roadmap end to end — from signal collection in our mobile SDKs (iOS, Android) and server-side APIs, to the feature engineering pipelines that turn raw attributes into fraud signals
  • Building and hardening device fingerprinting systems — persistent device identity across app reinstalls, rooted/emulated device detection, hardware attestation, and spoofing resistance for both web and mobile contexts
  • Developing network intelligence signals — IP reputation scoring, proxy/VPN/datacenter detection, TLS/JA4 fingerprinting, carrier and MCCMNC enrichment, and residential vs. commercial traffic classification
  • Applying ML to fingerprinting problems — anomaly detection on device attribute distributions, clustering to identify fraud rings sharing infrastructure, supervised classification of suspicious signal patterns, and adversarial robustness against evolving evasion techniques
  • Integrating with our real-time scoring engine — producing low-latency features that enrich our per-authentication risk model under strict latency constraints
  • Researching attacker techniques — reverse-engineering anti-detect tooling, automation frameworks, and bypass techniques to stay ahead of the adversarial curve
  • Laying the groundwork for a team — defining engineering standards, research practices, and data pipelines that will scale as we hire around you.
