SentiLink provides innovative identity and risk solutions, empowering institutions and individuals to transact with confidence. We’re building the future of identity verification in the United States, replacing a clunky, ineffective, and expensive status quo with solutions that are 10x faster, smarter, and more accurate. We’ve seen tremendous traction and are growing extremely quickly. Our real-time APIs have helped verify hundreds of millions of identities, starting with financial services and rapidly expanding into new markets. SentiLink is backed by world-class investors including Craft Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, NYCA, and Max Levchin. We’ve earned recognition from TechCrunch, CNBC, Bloomberg, Forbes, Business Insider, PYMNTS, American Banker, LendIt, and have been named to the Forbes Fintech 50 list every year since 2023. Last but not least, we’ve even made history - we were the first company to go live with the eCBSV and testified before the United States House of Representatives on the future of identity. SentiLink supports a variety of ways to work, ranging from fully remote to in-office. We operate as a digital-first company with strong collaboration across the U.S. and India. We maintain physical offices in Austin, San Francisco, New York City, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Chicago in the U.S., and in Gurugram (Delhi) and Bengaluru in India. If you’re located near one of these offices, we would love for you to spend time in the office regularly. Some roles are hybrid or in-office by design. For example, our engineering team in India works primarily from our Gurugram office.
ROLE
As a Senior Applied ML Scientist at SentiLink, you will build our core products: models that identify fraudsters and also advance our growing suite of products in financial risk. As an experienced researcher, you will be relied upon to be technically capable and the definitive owner of your respective domain. You will often work on projects with high visibility and impact that require deep domain understanding, critical thinking, and strong technical abilities. You will work with teams across the company to research new types of fraud, develop new products, and provide analysis to drive sales and marketing. This is a full-stack data science role, involving model development, analysis, and writing production code. You should be interested in having end-to-end ownership and a fast-moving environment where deep domain understanding drives development and unusual insights drive our competitive advantage rather than optimization of new machine learning methodologies.

- Emerging Products - focuses on 0-to-1 development of new offerings brought to market
- Application Fraud - analyzes the foundational elements of consumer financial applications to detect all forms of fraud
- Identity - resolves identities across massive, often conflicting data sources (both digital and physical) and generates risk models from limited information
Technologies: Python 3, PostgreSQL, and AWS infrastructure (EC2, S3, RDS, Redshift, etc.)
Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain SentiLink’s fraud detection models through the full model development lifespan: from data acquisition decisions through featurization, focusing labeling resources, model training, experimentation, productionalization, and monitoring.
- Build foundational modeling to drive SentiLink’s expanding suite of Fraud and Financial Risk products.
- Research new types of fraud and develop new SentiLink products around identity verification.
- Achieve success by researching / developing through iteration, integration of new data sources, and inventive feature engineering.
- Write production-ready code that can be relied on for real-time decision making by our partners.
- Design, perform, and present analyses that will inform data acquisition, product development, risk operations priorities, marketing, and sales efforts.
- Work with engineering, risk operations, and data acquisitions to access necessary data, maintain data quality, and support data access.
REQUIREMENTS

- Strong practical ML / Stats knowledge, i.e. can easily employ the suite of standard ML / stats tools to quickly scope out solutions, and double down where needed. Experience with SOTA ML solutions is a plus
- Interest in developing deep domain expertise for product-focused work: a background in fraud is not required, but willingness to learn is
- Experience writing production code and tests
- Detail oriented and thoughtful - someone we can rely on to make business-changing decisions
- Bonus for familiarity with: identity solutions, fintech, or adjacent industries
- Experience working at a startup strongly preferred
- Thrive in a fast-paced environment characterized by the need to solve extremely varied, high impact, open-ended problems.
- Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States and must live in the United States

Frame your ML portfolio around fraud detection
SentiLink's products center on identity risk and synthetic fraud. Tailor your GitHub projects, papers, or case studies to show anomaly detection, classification at scale, or signal modeling. Reviewers notice when your background maps directly to their problem space.
Verify your OPT or TN timeline before applying
If you're on F-1 OPT, confirm your STEM extension eligibility and remaining authorized days before your first interview. SentiLink has sponsored TN for qualifying Canadian and Mexican nationals, so know which treaty category your ML role fits before the offer stage.
Target roles requiring production ML experience
SentiLink's engineering positions consistently emphasize building and deploying models in production, not just research. Highlight distributed training pipelines, model monitoring, and latency-sensitive inference work. These details move your application past the initial screen at a company this stage.
Ask about PERM timing during the offer stage
If your goal is a Green Card through EB-2 or EB-3, raise it before you sign. Ask the recruiter whether the company initiates PERM concurrently with your first H-1B year. Early clarity prevents a situation where sponsorship support stalls after your initial status expires.
Use Migrate Mate to filter open AI ML roles
Sponsorship-willing employers can be hard to identify from standard job boards. Use Migrate Mate to filter SentiLink's AI ML Engineering openings by visa type, so you only spend time on roles where your status is already a confirmed fit.
Prepare a degree equivalency brief for USCIS
H-1B specialty occupation petitions require your degree to align with the specific ML role. If your undergraduate field differs from computer science or statistics, document how your coursework or credentials map to the position before USCIS requests evidence of equivalency.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does SentiLink sponsor H-1B visas for AI ML Engineers?
SentiLink has a history of sponsoring work visas for technical roles, and H-1B visa is the most common pathway for AI ML Engineering positions at U.S. technology companies. Because H-1B approvals depend on the annual lottery, it's worth confirming the company's specific approach to cap-subject filings and whether they support premium processing during your offer negotiation.
Which visa types are commonly used for AI ML Engineering roles at SentiLink?
SentiLink has sponsored across multiple visa categories for technical talent, including F-1 OPT (and STEM OPT extension), TN visa for eligible Canadian and Mexican nationals working in qualifying computer science roles, and employment-based Green Card pathways including EB-2 and EB-3. The right category depends on your citizenship, degree field, and how long you need authorization before a Green Card petition matures.
What qualifications or experience does SentiLink expect for AI ML Engineering roles?
SentiLink's ML roles consistently require hands-on experience building and deploying models in production environments, not just academic or research work. Familiarity with fraud detection, identity verification, or risk modeling is a strong differentiator. Most posted roles expect proficiency in Python, experience with large-scale data pipelines, and comfort working in cross-functional product teams.
How do I apply for AI ML Engineering jobs at SentiLink?
Browse current AI ML Engineering openings at SentiLink through Migrate Mate, which filters listings by visa sponsorship type so you can confirm your status is supported before applying. Once you identify a role, apply directly through SentiLink's careers page and tailor your resume to highlight production ML systems, relevant domain experience, and any prior work with fraud or identity data.
How do I manage the timeline from offer to work authorization at SentiLink?
Timeline depends heavily on your current status. F-1 OPT holders can begin work immediately if authorization is active, but should track their OPT expiration and STEM extension window carefully. H-1B cap filings open each March for an October 1 start, so a spring offer may require a gap or a cap-exempt bridge arrangement. TN status can typically be obtained at the port of entry within days of receiving a qualifying offer letter.
