•    Build and distribute well documented internal Python packages (e.g., reusable libraries, CLI tools, and developer tooling), including versioning, release notes, and backward compatibility practices to support department wide adoption.
•    Partner closely with stakeholders (e.g., model reviewers/validators and related risk partners) to gather requirements, translate pain points into scalable solutions, and deliver tools that improve day-to-day effectiveness and turnaround times.
•    Establish and maintain automated quality controls (e.g., unit and integration tests, CI checks, static analysis) to improve reliability and reduce operational risk across the codebase.
•    Contribute to and uphold engineering standards for the team, including coding conventions, documentation expectations, testing strategies, and packaging/release patterns, to improve consistency and maintainability across tools.

•    Strong background in Machine Learning and Statistics, ideally in the Banking/Finance industry.
•    Experience with RDBMS and other types of database management systems.
•    The ability to effectively communicate with a wide range of stakeholders, both written and verbally.
•    Strong attention to detail and ability to provide information in usable formats (proficiency in Microsoft office, including Excel, PowerPoint and Word).

Skills that will help you in the role:
•    Ability to work independently in a self-directed way in a collaborative environment.
