We are seeking a Senior ML Engineer to build the MLOps foundation and interpretability framework for our next-generation credit risk engines. Your mission is two-fold: create the infrastructure for scalable Transformer-based model deployment, and build the "glass box" tooling that transforms model internals into regulatory-compliant, human-understandable insights.
You will bridge the gap between cutting-edge
Mechanistic Interpretability (XAI) research and high-stakes financial production workflows. You will design the systems that map latent embeddings to human-readable credit concepts, build the MLOps pipelines to serve these models at scale, and ensure our AI engines are not just high-performing, but transparent, defensible, and ready for global regulatory scrutiny.
We believe great things happen when teams connect. Our schedule is built around
4 days of high-impact, in-office collaboration (Monday-Thursday), paired with
Friday Flexibility to wrap up your week remotely.
