Coris is building the AI-first trust and operations layer for global commerce. We partner with leading platforms, marketplaces, payment providers, and banks to transform how business onboarding, monitoring, and lifecycle decisions are made - using AI on the ground to drive faster, smarter actions with less friction.
One of our customers described us as Cursor + Lovable for risk teams: flagging bad actors, assisting in investigations, and autonomously acting to mitigate fraud losses in real time.
Backed by top-tier investors like Y Combinator, Lux Capital, Pathlight Ventures and founded by experts in the payments domain, Coris is reimagining how risk and ops gets done - not with legacy rule engines, but with domain-specific AI that thinks like your best risk analyst at scale. We help customers scale their expertise, move faster, and unlock growth without compromising safety.
We're growing quickly, with strong customer pull and adoption globally. If you're early in your career, allergic to busywork that isn't shipping, and want to learn at the frontier of AI and risk infrastructure faster than anywhere else - we'd love to talk.
Fraud detection and risk mitigation are fundamentally hard distributed systems problems:
A lot of what makes this work is not glamorous. The signal lives behind poorly documented APIs, inconsistent data formats, and legacy systems that were never meant to talk to each other. This role is for an engineer who sees that schlep as the moat - who will happily dig into an undocumented payment processor integration and come out the other side having made the whole system smarter.
