Working within the Risk & Fraud Team, you will leverage advanced statistical modeling and machine learning to detect, prevent, and adapt to evolving fraud threats. You thrive on solving complex problems with highly imbalanced data and delivering tangible risk reduction impact in a fast-paced environment. You strongly believe in agile principles and use them to deliver value incrementally. You are eager to learn about new methodologies and practices and apply them directly in your work. As a Senior Data Scientist you’ll be: Model Development & Risk Mitigation: Design, develop, and implement advanced ML/Statistical models to predict and prevent various fraud typologies. Focus on driving impact by optimising costs and reducing risk using ML/Stats models. Specialised Data Handling: Employ advanced techniques to manage and model highly imbalanced, large datasets characteristic of the fraud domain. Adaptive Systems: Build and maintain models that can quickly adapt to new and evolving fraud typologies and emerging threats. Real-Time MLOps: Develop, optimise, and deploy ML models for real-time/low-latency inference in production settings. Data & Feature Engineering: Utilize, enrich, and contribute to the feature store ecosystem, ensuring high-quality, scalable features for risk models. Performance Monitoring: Implement and maintain robust drift monitoring and model performance tracking to ensure deployed models remain effective and stable. Collaboration: Work closely with ML Engineers to productionize models leveraging AWS/GCP tech stack, and collaborate with Business and Product teams to understand requirements and solutionise data products. Exploration: Identify creative solutions in order to build relevant training data sets and explore the value of new data structures like knowledge graphs for relational fraud detection. WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR You have 4+ years of experience in Software Development or Machine Learning, with a strong emphasis on practical model development and deployment. You are Strong in Python and have expert knowledge with Machine Learning tools/libraries (e.g., scikit-learn, statmodels, TensorFlow, Keras, or PyTorch). You have experience with big-data technologies such as Spark, SparkML, Hadoop etc. and have handled large data in a distributed processing environment. AWS, GCP, or Azure (anyone) cloud knowledge is preferred. You are proficient in ML training, optimising, feature selection and engineering, hyperparameter tuning and have knowledge about trade-offs in using different algorithms. You have demonstrated experience in developing and deploying a variety of ML-algorithms (e.g., logistic regressions, boosted trees, neural networks) that work in real-time settings. You have a good working knowledge with basic data table operations (SQL etc.), and data transform in the warehouse (dbt etc.). You are comfortable with ambiguity and are a self-starter—you take initiative in spotting opportunities and finding ways to solve challenges with data. Familiarity with Financial Services and Fintech space is preferred. Highly Desirable Skills: Exposure to Cost-Sensitive Learning techniques, where the economic impact of prediction errors is a key optimization factor. A decent idea and practical exposure to MLOps principles (e.g., model versioning, continuous integration/deployment for ML). Experience with Drift monitoring tools and frameworks. Exposure to Knowledge Graphs or graph database applications. WHAT YOU WILL GET IN RETURN Make work, work for you! We are embracing new ways of working and support flexible working arrangements.
