Responsibilities
- Lead the development of next generation deep learning approaches to advance our current underwriting models, to ensure that our core lending capabilities remain at the forefront of the industry.
- Unlock the value in non-traditional datasets by building sophisticated neural networks (e.g. LSTMs, RNNs, or Transformers). You will find novel ways to transform raw, multi-modal inputs into powerful predictive features.
- Collaborate with business stakeholders to prioritize initiatives. You will bridge the gap between ambitious R&D and tangible in-market results, driving ideas from initial prototypes through to production.
- Use a combination of business acumen, coding and statistical skills to navigate large amounts of data and extract actionable solutions.
- Work cross-functionally on projects that support key business initiatives and drive sustainable growth.
Requirements
- Strong experience developing and deploying deep learning models, particularly for sequential data (e.g. time series or language models).
- A proven track record leading model development, including setting the technical direction, project management, stakeholder comms, and mentoring junior members of the team.
- Experience producing and managing reliable and maintainable code in SQL/Python in a team setting, including code reviews and setting software engineering best practices
- Hands-on experience with modern Machine/Deep Learning frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, or Hugging Face Transformers, including training deep learning models on GPUs or GPU clusters.
- Experience working with structured and unstructured data, such as text, logs, or time series and tokenisation techniques.
- A strong understanding of probability, statistics, machine learning and familiarity with large data set manipulation.
- A drive for continued learning through an internal and external focus, and an ability to prototype new techniques to assess value
- Where and how you'll work
