We are hiring on behalf of one of our clients, a leading

RegTech SaaS company

that helps global enterprises in fintech, banking, and compliance sectors manage risk and regulatory requirements. The company leverages AI and data-driven insights to power its solutions, and now seeks

Lead

Data Scientists

to strengthen its product innovation and analytics capabilities. Role Overview

As a

Data Scientist , you will play a critical role in designing, developing, and deploying machine learning and statistical models to solve complex business and compliance challenges. You will collaborate with engineering, product, and compliance experts to build scalable data-driven solutions that improve product accuracy, efficiency, and customer outcomes. Key Responsibilities

Collect, clean, and analyze large structured and unstructured datasets from multiple sources. Develop and implement

machine learning models

for fraud detection, risk scoring, identity verification, and compliance monitoring. Conduct

statistical analysis, feature engineering, and predictive modeling

to extract insights and improve product performance. Collaborate with engineering teams to

deploy models into production

at scale. Partner with product teams to design experiments (A/B testing) and evaluate feature effectiveness. Research and implement

state-of-the-art algorithms

in AI/ML relevant to RegTech (e.g., anomaly detection, NLP, computer vision). Monitor, evaluate, and continuously improve models for performance, fairness, and compliance. Prepare clear documentation, dashboards, and reports to communicate findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Requirements

Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, or a related field. 25 years of experience as a

big data tools

(Spark, Hadoop, or similar) is a plus. Experience deploying ML models to production environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure). Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills. Preferred Skills

Hands-on experience with

computer vision techniques

(e.g., object detection, OCR, facial recognition, document image analysis). Expertise in

deep learning frameworks

(TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras) applied to image-based models. Familiarity with

image preprocessing techniques

(augmentation, noise reduction, image normalization). Understanding of

explainable AI in computer vision

for compliance-driven use cases. Ability to translate complex image-based model outputs into

product-ready solutions .
