About the role
Reporting into the Data Engineering organization, the Data Scientist is responsible for designing and building the curated data structures that AI and ML applications consume across MeridianLink. You will own the vector stores behind our RAG systems, the feature store that powers model training and inference, and the graph databases that capture relationships across applicants, products, and decisions. You will also lead targeted data discovery work, surfacing hidden trends in our lending and account-opening data that inform both AI use cases and the broader business. This is a hands-on, build-oriented role. You will not be primarily training large models - you will make sure the people training and serving models have high-quality, well-governed, well-engineered data to work with, and you will use your data science skills to validate that the data is fit for purpose.
