You will be responsible for the enhancing payment flow through data and ML services, advancing the complex problem of multi-objective optimisation. You will work closely with other Senior and Staff Data Scientists to shape the architecture of our decisioning systems.

Mentor junior team members and utilise model explainability methods to drive feature performance improvements.
5+ years of experience in designing, building and maintaining machine learning models to solve complex, large-scale business problems.
Deep understanding of frequentist and Bayesian statistics, plus supervised and unsupervised modelling techniques.
Proven experience modelling complex interactions (e.g., cluster or network effects).
Expertise in model explainability to tune feature engineering and understand feature interactions.
Ability to write high-quality, production-grade Python code and collaborate effectively with non-technical stakeholders.
Proficient in leveraging LLMs for coding support and process optimisation to maximise personal and team productivity.
Adept at tuning technical communication for broad audiences.
Proven ability to build trusting relationships with product stakeholders and deeply understand business models.
Experience with distributed general-purpose cluster-computing.
