Job Level
About the role
- Architect and lead the development of agentic AI systems that automate and augment finance workflows (e.g., forecasting, reporting, and decision support).
- Design and implement multi-agent systems leveraging LLMs, tool-use frameworks, and orchestration patterns (e.g., RAG, model chaining, dynamic prompting).
- Translate cutting-edge research in LLMs and agentic AI into scalable, production-ready solutions.
- Establish guardrails, evaluation frameworks, and responsible AI practices to ensure safe, compliant, and reliable outputs.
- Design fault-tolerant, observable agent systems with clear failure modes and recovery strategies.
- Lead the design and implementation of advanced predictive models, including time series forecasting and attrition prediction across customer segments.
- Develop interpretable, production-grade models that drive retention strategies and financial planning.
- Define and standardize evaluation metrics, validation frameworks, and monitoring systems for model performance and drift detection.
- Translate complex predictive insights into actionable recommendations for finance and business leaders.
- Design and build scalable AI/ML systems with a strong emphasis on software engineering best practices (modular design, APIs, CI/CD, testing).
- Lead end-to-end development from concept to production, ensuring robustness, scalability, and maintainability.
- Develop and integrate AI services into internal applications and workflows, including light front-end/back-end components where needed.
- Drive adoption of modern tooling (e.g., containerization, orchestration, cloud-native architectures).
- Establish and enforce MLOps best practices for deployment, monitoring, retraining, and governance of AI systems.
- Ensure systems meet enterprise standards for security, compliance (e.g., SOX), and auditability.
- Develop advanced feature engineering strategies capturing behavioral, financial, and temporal signals.
- Set technical direction for AI/ML initiatives across the finance organization.
- Lead complex, cross-functional projects and mentor other data specialists.
- Work alongside stakeholders across finance, IT, and product to adopt AI-driven solutions.
- Contribute to long-term AI strategy, identifying opportunities to drive efficiency and innovation.
