About the Role

We're looking for a curious and resilient Machine Learning Engineer who thrives in a culture of experimentation and rapid iteration. Our ideal candidate doesn't just apply AI concepts – they're excited to push boundaries, challenge assumptions, and learn from both successes and failures. If you believe that the only true failure is not experimenting quickly, we want you on our team.

Key Responsibilities

• Embrace a "fail fast, learn faster" mentality, aiming for a 20-30% success rate in your ideas and experiments. Continuously optimize our experimentation process, making it faster, more efficient, and more insightful
• Apply AI concepts to solve business problems, with a focus on rapid prototyping and iterative improvement
• Leverage SQL and data manipulation tools to work with complex datasets, exploring unconventional approaches
• Apply statistical methods, machine learning algorithms, and data visualization techniques to perform exploratory data analysis, embracing unexpected insights
• Build and interpret models using tools like PySpark and ML-Flow, constantly testing new approaches and parameters
• Write clean, well-documented code that facilitates collaboration and hence faster iteration
• Continuously evaluate and enhance existing models, viewing each iteration as an opportunity to learn and improve

Technical Skills

• Proficiency in rapidly prototyping and testing ideas using large, complex datasets and SQL
• Expertise in implementing and iterating on machine learning models and algorithms, with a focus on quick experimentation cycles
• Strong programming skills in Python and/or SQL, with an emphasis on writing code that facilitates easy modification and testing
• Experience in leveraging data visualization techniques to quickly interpret and communicate experimental results
• Ability to swiftly deploy and iterate on AI solutions in cloud environments

Soft Skills

• Passionate about experimentation and embracing failure, viewing setbacks as valuable learning opportunities
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, able to articulate the value of experimentation and rapid iteration to stakeholders
• Thrives in ambiguity and uncertainty, comfortable with the idea that most experiments will not succeed; also designing good experiments is a crucial part of the R&D process
• Skilled at analyzing problems from multiple angles and generating a high volume of potential solutions

Preferred Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related field
• Minimum of 2 years of hands-on experience in data analysis, modeling, and AI solutions development

If you're passionate about leveraging data to drive business decisions and have a track record of delivering impactful AI solutions, we want to hear from you!

Job Benefits

• GenAI experience – Work directly in the innovative field of GenAI, shaping groundbreaking projects that redefine consumer finance intelligence.
• World-class team - You'll get the chance to learn from (and teach) some of the brightest and most skilled people you'll ever meet. Our team members have been part of BCG, Deloitte, EY, Blackstone, Meta, Amazon and are IIT, IIM, BITS alumnus.
• Continuous education - As relentless seekers of knowledge, we sponsor and support any training materials, books, courses, and exam fees for upskilling yourself in areas related to your role - but that's not where it ends. If you make a good case for some extra learning, we're delighted to foot the tab.
• Food at the office – Meals are on us. We won't let your stomach grumble while you hustle.
• Health insurance - Health always comes first. The health of your family is as important to us, as it is to you. We offer insurance coverage for both you and your family.
• Flexible schedule - We're not a "clock in, clock out" company. Morning person? Start work while the world's still sleeping. Night owl? Ramp things up while others are winding down. You're fully trusted to create the right conditions for your own personal peak productivity. We only ask that you be available to your teammates for seamless collaboration.
• Generous leave policy - Take all the time you need to recharge your batteries - no cap on vacation here. Because a rested, relaxed, and refreshed mind is a happy and effective mind.
• Recreation & team activities – We regularly indulge in friendly football, table tennis, cooking sessions and challenge each other to do those extra push ups or chug that 4th drink (of course that’s Nimbu Pani).
