Our charter is to build the flexible, scalable, and intelligent AI systems that detect and prevent identity fraud, account takeover, and large-scale abuse — in real time and at the scale of a global financial platform. We own the core security AI capabilities that decide, millions of times a day, whether a user is who they claim to be: face and liveness intelligence, document and identity verification, and multimodal risk modeling. We work shoulder-to-shoulder with Product, Risk, Compliance, and Engineering to turn the hardest adversarial problems in crypto into production-grade defenses that protect good users and the open financial system.</div> <h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxlgjNWC4U9JCVvGtNoRxZTmdb">About the Role</h2> <div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxlg3hjmbDFEiCyyZZllnyDzaf">We are looking for a Senior Staff AI Engineer to take a technical leadership role in designing, evolving, and owning OKX's core security AI capabilities.
