About the Role
The Enterprise Solutions Technology team is seeking a Data Scientist Leader to design, develop, and operate high-rigor analytical and machine-learning systems within a complex, regulated financial-services environment. This role involves defining the AI/ML roadmap and building production-grade predictive models for anomaly detection, variance analysis, and forecasting, ensuring they are explainable, reliable, and compliant with regulatory standards.
Responsibilities
- Deliver applied data science and machine learning in production within regulated, data-intensive environments.
- Own the full model lifecycle including exploration, feature engineering, development, back-testing, validation, deployment, and monitoring.
- Manage large, complex, and imperfect datasets containing missing data, outliers, and noisy labels.
- Design production ML systems considering batch vs real-time inference, model serving patterns, and performance trade-offs.
- Operate models in production with a focus on versioning, drift detection, retraining, and incident response.
- Develop explainable models using feature attribution and transparency techniques suitable for regulated environments.
- Combine statistical models, ML, semantic models, and rules-based logic to achieve accuracy and stability.
- Focus on data quality, anomaly detection, and performance metrics to drive sustained improvement.
- Act as a technical mentor to other data scientists through review and pairing.
Requirements
- Deep grounding in statistics, machine learning, time-series analysis, and predictive modelling.
- Extensive experience building models under real operational constraints.
- Strong understanding of production ML system design and failure modes.
- Comfortable working directly with data, models, and code.
- Pragmatic and outcome-driven mindset.
- Clear communication skills for explaining modelling choices to diverse stakeholders.
