Provide clear, concise, and actionable reporting on validation outcomes and AI risk assessments to senior members of the team.
-
Contribute to the improvement of validation frameworks and processes related to AI models.

-
A numerate degree or equivalent experience, for example in Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science or Physics.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to communicate complex quantitative concepts clearly to non-technical customers.
-
Ability to work proactively and independently, manage your time optimally, and deliver high-quality outputs within set timelines.
And any of these would be great:
-
Proficiency in Python programming and experience using AI-specific frameworks or libraries such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar tools; proficiency in SQL.
