• Strong experience shipping applied ML into production (not just experimentation)
• Strong Python + ability to write maintainable, tested code
• Strong SQL + comfort working directly with messy, high-volume data
• Solid modelling judgement: calibration, leakage, bias, thresholding, cost trade-offs, monitoring/drift
• Experience building decisioning systems where reliability, latency, and explainability matter Nice-to-haves:

Data Scientist (NLP & LLM Specialist)

Are you an expert in Natural Language Processing who thrives on building scalable, real-world AI solutions? We are seeking a hands-on Data Scientist to join a premier global credit ratings and financial information firm. You will be a key player in launching a brand-new, from-scratch analytics platform designed for elite institutional clients including corporate banks and asset managers.

The Opportunity

In this role, you will go beyond conventional boundaries to design, build, and deploy quantitative models that power advanced insights. You will collaborate with a cross-domain team of economists, political scientists, and developers to transform proprietary risk data into actionable strategic assets.

Your Impact

• Model Innovation: Design and optimize risk models for analytics and generative AI applications using proprietary NLP data generation processes.
• Pipeline Development: Develop and maintain robust ML and data pipelines for experimentation and deployment.
• Insight Extraction: Prototype and test new approaches for extracting insights from structured and unstructured data.
