  • Experience with tabular data, financial datasets, and credit scoring is a strong plus

  • Proficiency in Python (pandas, scikit-learn, numpy) and SQL

  • Experience with Git, CI/CD pipelines, and Docker

  • Solid understanding of model quality metrics: Gini, KS, AUC-ROC, PSI, calibration

  • Experience with monitoring production models (drift, degradation, retraining)

We Offer
