Instacart's Platform team powers the foundational capabilities behind our marketplace and Storefront Pro, including order management, pricing and discounting, loyalty, payments, fraud, and customer experience. We're hiring a Senior Product Manager, Fraud & Trust to lead the strategy and execution of our fraud detection, identity verification, and appeasements platforms that protect Instacart's four-sided marketplace of customers, shoppers, retailers, and advertisers.
In this role, you will own the end-to-end product vision and roadmap for how Instacart prevents fraud, verifies identity, and resolves order disputes fairly. A core challenge is navigating the tension between cost efficiency and delivering a fast, fair customer experience - shaping fraud and appeasement policies with cross-functional partners that protect the business without degrading the customer experience that drives growth. You'll drive measurable impact on cost per order, fraud losses, and customer experience by evolving our real-time decision platform, advancing ML-driven fraud models, and shaping the next generation of AI-native fraud defense.
Our Fraud & Trust team directly drives cost savings, revenue growth, and enables new business launches across Instacart's marketplace and enterprise surfaces. If you thrive in a fast-paced, highly cross-functional environment and want to define the strategy for how one of the largest grocery platforms in the world fights fraud, this role offers the chance to deliver measurable impact.
Instacart's Fraud & Trust team sits at the intersection of platform infrastructure and real-world commerce - protecting millions of transactions across a four-sided marketplace while serving as a growth enabler.
On the fraud and identity side, you'll own a real-time ML-powered decision platform and build the next generation of AI-native fraud defense. The industry is undergoing a generational shift from rules-based to AI-first fraud prevention, and you'll define Instacart's strategy for it.
On the appeasements side, you'll tackle one of the most interesting product challenges in commerce: how do you make customers whole quickly and fairly when something goes wrong, while maintaining thoughtful safeguards against abuse? Every customer-facing commitment we make builds the trust that drives loyalty and growth, and also requires careful product and policy design to manage cost responsibly. You'll design the systems and policies that solve this tension at scale, working across Order Quality, CX, Legal, and Finance.
