Join a strategic analytics team focused on transforming complex internal and external data into actionable business intelligence. In this role, you will develop predictive models, apply machine learning and generative AI, and turn structured and unstructured information into trusted insights that support commercial strategy and decision-making. Your work will help identify growth opportunities, anticipate customer churn, assess account health, and strengthen portfolio intelligence. You will collaborate with cross-functional partners across sales, finance, product, customer success, engineering, and technology to build scalable, explainable, and business-aligned analytics solutions. Combining advanced data science with practical business impact, this opportunity offers the chance to shape AI-enabled decision intelligence while promoting responsible AI adoption, model governance, and continuous innovation. \n Accountabilities Develop, validate, deploy, and maintain predictive models for customer propensity, churn, account health, forecasting, segmentation, and portfolio risk. Apply natural language processing (NLP), large language models (LLMs), and generative AI to extract meaningful signals from unstructured data, including news, filings, CRM notes, customer interactions, surveys, and support content. Transform qualitative information into structured, governed features that support reliable analytics and machine learning applications. Combine internal datasets with external information sources to enrich customer, account, product, and market intelligence. Evaluate and onboard external data sources by assessing data quality, coverage, licensing, and suitability for analytical use cases. Identify and quantify commercial growth opportunities, including cross-selling, upselling, and untapped market potential, using transparent assumptions and sensitivity analysis. Build AI-enabled workflows for summarization, entity extraction, signal detection, and decision support, incorporating appropriate human oversight and controls. Prototype analytical solutions, design experiments, define success metrics, and measure the business value delivered by models and AI initiatives. Operationalize models across Databricks and Azure environments, applying version control, testing, deployment, performance monitoring, and model-drift detection. Collaborate with analytical engineers and commercial data engineering teams to develop feature pipelines and curated datasets. Deliver analytical insights through dashboards, Power BI, Tableau, and web-hosted business intelligence applications. Document data sources, model features, assumptions, lineage, validation results, and limitations to support transparency and reproducibility. Partner with commercial strategy, sales, customer success, finance, product, and technology stakeholders to translate business challenges into analytical solutions and actionable recommendations. Apply robust model governance practices, including back-testing, explainability, bias checks, and validation, while ensuring data quality and compliance with approved information security policies. Monitor emerging AI and machine learning techniques, recommend high-value applications, and contribute to data science standards and best practices across the team. Requirements At least five years of experience in data science, applied machine learning, quantitative modeling, or a closely related field. Strong Python skills, including experience with libraries such as pandas, scikit-learn, statsmodels, and relevant NLP or deep learning frameworks, alongside proficiency in SQL. Hands-on experience building predictive models, such as classification, regression, survival analysis, and time-series models, covering feature engineering, validation, and monitoring. Practical experience with NLP, unstructured text analytics, and generative AI techniques, including embeddings, retrieval, prompt design, and model evaluation. Strong foundations in statistics, econometrics, causal inference, or experimental design, with the ability to interpret uncertainty and evaluate model limitations. Experience with Databricks, Spark, MLflow, or comparable cloud-based data and machine learning platforms; Azure experience is preferred. Familiarity with source control, automated testing, deployment practices, and the operational requirements of production machine learning models. Experience delivering analytical outputs through business intelligence tools such as Power BI or Tableau. Ability to translate complex business questions into analytical approaches, quantify commercial impact, and communicate findings clearly to technical and non-technical audiences. Experience working with commercial, customer, financial, risk, product, or operational data. Strong problem-solving, critical-thinking, stakeholder-management, and communication skills, with sound judgment regarding model reliability, limitations, and uncertainty. Demonstrated ability to use AI tools to support innovation and operational efficiency, with an understanding of AI risk management, ethical governance, and responsible adoption.
