  • You embody a continuous learning mindset, staying up to date on best practices while readily adapting new skills and methodologies.
  • You work effectively with cross-functional teams—Sales, Solution Engineering, Product, Engineering, Customer Success—fostering a spirit of collaboration.
  • You have outstanding written and spoken English skills, enabling you to convey complex ideas clearly and persuasively.
  • You’re adept at planning and managing project scope, setting expectations and timelines to ensure efficient solution delivery.
  • You maintain a humble, growth-oriented attitude, always seeking feedback and integrating the latest advancements in data science and machine learning.

OUR STANCE

  • We’re eager to meet talented and driven candidates regardless of whether they tick all the boxes. We’re looking for someone who will add to our culture, not just fit within it. We strongly encourage individuals from groups traditionally underestimated and underrepresented in tech to apply
  • We seek to actively recognize and combat racism, sexism, ableism and ageism. We embrace and support all gender identities and expressions, and celebrate love in its many forms. We won’t inquire about how you identify or if you’ve experienced discrimination, but if you want to tell your story, we are all ears
Responsibilities
  • Collaborate with customer teams (including domain experts, product managers, engineers, data scientists, and data engineers) to train, test, and deploy machine learning models tailored to financial services use cases.
  • Lead the delivery of bespoke data science solutions, encompassing requirements gathering, data exploration, feature engineering, modeling, deployment, and handover to customer teams in both pilot projects and full implementations.
  • Onboard and support diverse customer teams in solving real-world problems, ensuring a seamless experience and fast time-to-value on the Taktile platform.
  • Work closely with the product team to develop and refine ML modules—such as off-the-shelf AML and fraud models—ensuring seamless integration and robust functionality.
  • Collaborate with product management to translate insights from customer interactions into actionable improvements for Taktile’s offerings.
