Why augment instead of hire? Because every week lost to recruiting is a week of undetected fraud eating your margin. With Smartbrain’s outstaffing you plug battle-tested Python specialists straight into your stack, slash payroll overhead, and keep full managerial control. No visas, no HR paperwork—just monthly invoicing. You scale the squad up or down in days, enjoy timezone-matched availability, and replace any engineer free of charge within 48 h. Your legal team will appreciate iron-clad IP and NDA protection, while finance will love predictable spend and zero bench cost.
What Technical Leaders Say
We cut chargebacks by 37 % in 90 days. Smartbrain’s Python duo slipped into our Django stack, built real-time anomaly scoring, and freed our data team to focus on model tuning. Zero onboarding friction, airtight NDA, and productivity up from day one.
Olivia Perez
CTO
VogueWay Inc.
Our legacy Flask service was drowning in false positives. Smartbrain delivered two senior engineers experienced in pandas, NumPy, and Stripe APIs. Hiring cycle shrank from 6 weeks to 4 days, and fraud loss dropped 22 % within a quarter.
Marcus Lee
VP Engineering
PayAnchor Solutions
We needed Kafka-driven stream detection but lacked Python bandwidth. Smartbrain’s augmented devs integrated seamlessly, delivered unit-tested FastAPI micro-services, and boosted throughput by 3×. Onboarding took one Zoom call—remarkably efficient.

Industries We Secure
Fashion & Apparel
Python-powered ecommerce order fraud detection protects flash-sale fashion stores from promo abuse, bot attacks, and stolen-card purchases. Augmented developers build scalable Django micro-services, integrate with Adyen & Stripe APIs, and tune machine-learning models to flag risky orders before fulfillment—cutting costly returns and chargebacks.
FinTech Gateways
Payment processors rely on real-time Python anomaly scoring to spot transaction washing and account takeovers. Outstaffed engineers extend existing Kafka streams, craft pandas pipelines, and keep latency sub-50 ms—meeting strict SLA demands while reducing fraud exposure.
Electronics Marketplaces
High-ticket gadgets attract organized fraud rings. Our augmented Python teams deploy graph-based detection, cross-referencing device IDs, IP reputations, and historical patterns. The result: fewer false positives and happier genuine customers.
Healthcare Supplies
HIPAA-compliant stores must stop fraudulent orders without blocking legitimate clinics. Smartbrain devs craft TensorFlow classifiers, anonymize sensitive data, and integrate dashboards that satisfy both compliance and finance teams.
Automotive Parts
Seasonal spikes demand elastic anti-fraud capacity. Python engineers build serverless FastAPI endpoints on AWS Lambda, scaling to millions of lookups during peak demand with zero downtime.
Subscription Commerce
Monthly box services fight friendly fraud chargebacks. Augmented talent implements behavioral scoring, leveraging PyTorch RNNs to flag suspicious cancellation sequences before payment capture.
Digital Goods
Instant delivery makes virtual goods a prime fraud target. Smartbrain’s Python devs integrate real-time Redis queues, ensuring verification happens before codes are released, slashing refund requests.
Travel & Ticketing
Complex itineraries and resale markets drive credential stuffing. Our outstaffed specialists craft geospatial fraud heatmaps in Python, feeding alerts to CS teams within seconds.
Home & Living
Large-item shipping costs magnify fraud impact. Developers build XGBoost risk engines that weigh address validation, delivery windows, and historical disputes, saving thousands per truckload.
ecommerce order fraud detection Case Studies
Chargeback Collapse for Luxury Fashion
Client: Global luxury fashion retailer.
Challenge: Sudden surge in ecommerce order fraud detection false negatives costing $1.2 M per quarter.
Solution: Two Smartbrain-augmented Python developers embedded with the in-house data science squad. In just three sprints they refactored legacy Scikit-Learn code into a TensorFlow ensemble and wired real-time scoring via FastAPI. Continuous deployment pipelines were added for safe A/B rollout.
Result: 38 % reduction in chargebacks, 24 % fewer manual reviews, and model latency dropped from 420 ms to 110 ms.
Marketplace Safety at Scale
Client: B2C electronics marketplace.
Challenge: ecommerce order fraud detection model could not handle Black Friday traffic, leading to 7 % order loss.
Solution: Three augmented Python engineers re-architected the detection pipeline to Kafka streams, introduced Redis caching, and optimized pandas transformations. Deployment on AWS Fargate enabled auto-scaling without ops burden.
Result: 5× throughput, 92 % precision under peak load, and $640 K saved in prevented fraud during the holiday week.
FinTech Gateway Real-Time Shield
Client: Mid-size payment gateway.
Challenge: Regulatory audit flagged gaps in ecommerce order fraud detection for cross-border cards.
Solution: A senior Smartbrain Python architect plus a data engineer implemented feature-store in PostgreSQL, added LightGBM models, and created Grafana dashboards for live compliance reporting—all within six weeks.
Result: False-positive rate fell by 31 %, mean inference time dropped to 40 ms, and the company passed PCI DSS audit first attempt.
