Requisition ID: 245695
Join a purpose driven winning team, committed to results, in an inclusive and high-performing culture.
The world is changing faster than ever and so are we!
“Big data” fed by “complex processes” representing “massive stakes” are not just buzzwords to us; they are a genuine reflection of our daily life. Our goal is to be nothing less than The Leading Bank in The Americas that puts Customers First. Achieving this will require us to assemble and retain a Winning Team that can both design and run highly-predictive decisioning and forecasting models that accurately reflect reality. To put things in perspective, our models underpin automated risk-management decisions and forecasts that impact millions of customers and keep hundreds of billions of dollars safe, every single day. We are fortunate to have a world-class team of Data Scientists and Model Operations personnel building and deploying incredible risk models. But they need your help.
Responsibilities
Our Regulatory Capital Model Development team is responsible for ensuring that every part of the model lifecycle, from planning to data selection, development to implementation, deployment to monitoring undergoes rigorous analysis and as well documented, controlled, effective and efficient, as possible. Getting models to market quickly is important but getting them “right” is even more so. That is where you come in:
You are capable of poking around “under the hood”, asking questions ad-nauseam (in a polite and collaborative way), mapping real world processes to technical logic, data flows and sources and accurately spec’ing out how our modeling and technology teams should use what you discovered.
We are results driven, we work hard, we play hard, we nerd out and we bring service, smiles and solutions to every problem that we face; so should you.
We want talented, pragmatic, analytically-oriented business analysts who are equally at home mapping and translating operational and technical processes into business rules and data flows, and working collaboratively with a diverse range of stakeholders to develop scalable solutions in the interest of improving our automated forecasting models and capital allocation.
We want bright and energetic but disciplined minds who come armed with a bottomless sense of curiosity about everything, a passion for getting things done right the first time, the ability to prioritize, a knack for explaining complex issues in simple concise ways and a deep sense of personal and professional accountability.
The ideal candidate will be a consummate team player who is equally comfortable being a:
Business Analyst / Business Consultant / Financial Analyst
Data Analyst
Software Architect
Process Engineer
