Content moderation (image, text, behavior)
Recommendation systems and user engagement optimization
Behavioral detection and trust & safety models
Emerging use cases such as dynamic pricing and growth optimization
At the same time, our current ML stack is still evolving.
Legacy models are not fully integrated into pipelines, lifecycle management remains inconsistent, and our approach can sometimes resemble βdevelop, deploy, and forget.β
As ML usage expands across the company, this creates increasing complexity and dependency
