Whether its big or small data, our teams ability to turn that data into insights and insights into great decisions, hinges upon the code that makes it all work.

The more time we can save through code that runs flawlessly and without intervention, the more time we have to deliver new insights.

This role will be the catalyst that drives data science culture towards adopting the best mix of internal and external platforms, tools, and practices to deliver model-based insights to our customers faster than ever before.

Role Description

In this role, you will :

• Lead our code quality initiative, defining the vision and roadmap for the effortrole and carrying it out across the Retail Bank

• Evaluate Machine Learning pipelines and Enterprise offerings to coach the team towards making the best development and deployment decisions for their use cases
• Leverage expertise on platforms and software best practices to enable and improve data scientists code resiliency and performance
• Develop and maintain software tools, playbooks, and documentation to further drive engineering practices that rapidly lead to high performance models
• Curate or create training for software development best practices for data scientist mastery with tools used on model build and execution platforms

The Ideal Candidate is :

Technical. Youre experienced with open source languages and how theyre used in artificial intelligence and machine learning.

You understand what can and should be automated and standardized. Modular code powering real-time predictive applications running in the cloud is kinda your thing.

A Teacher. You know your way around a complex, collaborative code base, but you still remember what it was like writing your first script.

You can articulate the why, the what, and the how of writing modular, unit-tested code so others can get on your level. The only thing better than writing your own masterful Python package is coaching someone else to leave their beloved Notebook behind and learn to do the same.

A Self-Starter. You will own the mission to define the structure that leads our team to eliminate errors and make work exceptionally transferable through leveraging existing libraries / platforms as well as creating new modules where needed.

Overall, you help others achieve a high level of coding maturity and be self-sufficient when putting work into production on a cloud infrastructure.

Detail Oriented. Pre-commit hooks are as automatic as putting your seatbelt on when you get behind the wheel. You appreciate elegance and efficiency in code.
