Job description

You will join a collaborative team that applies advanced modeling, machine learning, and applied AI to profile clients across all lines of business, improve customer experience, and enable business performance at scale. You will take on the toughest analytical challenges the team faces-from customer segmentation to digital marketing to AI-enabled and agentic alert systems-and turn them around with speed and rigor. You will work on high-visibility initiatives, partner closely with business and technology teams, and help move ideas from concept into implemented solutions embedded in day-to-day workflows. You will also have opportunities to grow through mentoring, training, and mobility. As a Data Scientist Associate Senior at JPMorganChase within the Consumer & Community Banking Data and Analytics organization, you will operate as a senior technical contributor and force-multiplier for the team. You will independently own end-to-end modeling solutions-framing ambiguous problems, building and validating models, and driving them into production-while helping set technical direction and elevating the work of others. You will ensure solutions are statistically sound, aligned to business objectives, delivered quickly, and integrated into business processes to drive adoption and measurable impact.
