Who you are

This is the right role if you have a passion to solve challenging problems - with the help of data, software and AI. As a person, you look past the noise, to do what is right. You prefer action to talking, but when you talk, people want to listen.

 

Your experience and background: 

• MSc or PhD in a field related to predictive or statistical modelling.
• At least 2 years’ experience developing machine learning solutions in python, with a focus on model validation and explainability in a production grade system.
• Exposure to multiple predictive AI projects, either through work or Kaggle or similar.
• A knack for tackling complex problems and creating simple solutions.

It would be ideal if you also:

• Experience developing production grade code

 

What we offer 

People come here when they want to get somewhere. For some, it’s to take their career to the next level. For others, it’s to break new ground within their area of expertise – in other words, with us, you will always move forward.

 

A culture that fosters performance and growth in one of the largest Nordic banks, offering various opportunities to evolve, develop and learn from brilliant colleagues with diverse backgrounds in a vibrant working environment.

 

Hybrid working model – we believe in the value of bringing people together and at the same time we embrace the freedom of flexibility.

 

Diversity and inclusion are a natural part of our daily work. We know that an inclusive workplace is a sustainable one. We genuinely believe that our diverse backgrounds, experiences, characteristics and traits make us stronger together. Every day we strive to find new ways to improve diversity and inclusion within our community e.g. we have signed the European Diversity Charters in the countries where we operate to show our commitment and engage with others to continue learning and improving.
