  • Take ownership of the existing model (tree ensembles / gradient boosting), retrain it, and incorporate new features (e.g., digital payments, CISP).
  • Evaluate performance (AUC-ROC, F1, probability calibration) and segment risk levels A–F aligned with credit standards.
  • Calculate dynamic credit lines and expected loss (risk exposure), integrating score, potential, and sales history.
  • Package the model under the MFL framework (PyFunc, model_card, tests) for productionization.
  • Proven experience in credit risk / scoring models and supervised machine learning.
  • Python (scikit-learn, XGBoost), statistics, model validation, and MLflow.
  • Understanding of risk metrics (PD, expected loss, exposure).
  • Mandatory: Hands-on experience with Databricks applied to credit models, credit risk, or credit scoring.
  • Experience in financial services, credit bureaus, or commercial credit portfolios.
  • Experience developing AI agents / agentic infrastructure (e.g. Mosaic AI Agent Framework, agent orchestration, MCP).
