• Design and develop machine learning models (Supervised, Unsupervised, and Reinforcement Learning), AI (Generative models and agent orchestration) models, and deep learning models (e.g., Neural Networks and autoencoders).
• Run machine learning tests and experiments.
• Train and retrain systems to prevent drift and optimize results.
• Solve complex problems with multi-layered data sets, extend existing ML frameworks (Scikit-Learn, XGBoost, Tensorflow) and AI frameworks (Keras, LangChain).
• Leverage and develop advanced analytics models (network based, forecasting, rules-based), implement said algorithms, and build tools to apply them.
• Turn structured, semi-structured and unstructured data into useful information
• Develop ML/AI algorithms to analyze huge volumes of historical data to derive insights, make decisions, and form predictions.
• Run tests, perform statistical analysis, and interpret test results.
• Contribute to shaping the digital foundations: (Hypergraph) Scenario Engine and Network based Methods: graph-based modeling tool that maps relationships between entities and simulates cascading scenarios; Chatbots (i.e., Distribution); Semantic Engine: AI layer that enables meaning-based search as opposed to keyword search.
• Conduct large-scale analysis of information to discover patterns and trends by combining different models and algorithms.
• Get insights from data (descriptive, attribution).
• Perform Topological Data Modeling, Causality, Variable Importance Analysis, Attribution modeling, Regression.
What you need to succeed:
• Master's or Ph.D. in Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Data Science, Physics, AI, Machine Learning or a related field.

• Proficiency in Python and SQL, TensorFlow, PyTorch, XGBoost, scikit-learn
• Strong grasp of artificial intelligence and machine learning frameworks and stacks.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and CI/CD pipelines is advantageous.
• Intellectual curiosity and adaptability to emerging AI and quant finance trends.
• Strong communication skills to explain complex models to non-technical stakeholders.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, multidisciplinary environment.
