Desirable

• The data science team at Ocrolus builds high-quality, impactful analytics and machine-learning based products that empower lenders to make better credit, fraud, and operational risk decisions. Data scientists play a critical role in the full product development cycle and move fast to ideate, build, deploy, and maintain production quality models.
• If you are a data scientist looking to leverage your strong engineering abilities in building ML models end-to-end, then we want to talk to you!
• Partner with Product, Engineering, and other stakeholders to translate ambiguous business challenges into well-defined data science problems
• Own the end-to-end lifecycle of data science models, from data exploration and feature engineering to deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement in production
• Develop robust, scalable, and efficient models, thoughtfully balancing algorithmic complexity against interpretability, business needs, and delivery timelines
• Examples of data science initiatives include: using NLP/LLMs to classify transactions into standardized categories, training gradient boosting trees to predict loan default probability and loss-given-default based on transactional data, and building an entity resolution system to match financial documents across time with a specific borrower
