• Create reusable platform capabilities and APIs that allow new risk signals and models to be integrated and rapidly adopted across multiple use cases.
• Partner closely with Engineering and Data Science to define platform architecture and operationalize ML and AI capabilities at scale.

• Deep understanding of how ML models, risk signals, rules, policies and data are orchestrated into automated decisions and actions.
• Strong technical fluency across APIs, real‑time and batch systems, data platforms, event‑driven architectures and ML infrastructure.
