LexisNexis Risk is one of the top security providers worldwide in online fraud detection.
I worked in the fraud detection team for a month and half only, with 100 Million transactions per day and up to 100 thousands transactions per second, the application is capable of providing a high precision for device identification (40 ms for identification) and a very robust fraud detection score with 100 vectors or checks. It was a really very good exposure to a totally different environment (Java EE, linux, prometheus, Aerospiie, custom Apache modules, puppet and Kafka). And although I stayed for one month with them due to the market dynamics, I left with a very good relationship with the product manager, during this small period I was capable of delivering one enhancement to the detection script in browsers as well as backend product enhancement
