Job Title: Senior Data Scientist, Vice President

Location: Bangalore, India

Role Description

• As a Senior Data Science Leader, you will analyse, interpret, and derive actionable insights from extremely large and complex datasets using Google Cloud Platform (GCP). A central focus of this role is understanding how trades flow through the bank at scale whilst leveraging statistical and analytical methodologies to: identify bottlenecks, anomalies, categorise system/client/user behaviour, and identify efficiency opportunities across the trade lifecycle.
• You will work closely with business, tech, and product partners to translate complex business questions into robust statistical investigations that deliver measurable impact. Where solutions are meaningful, repeatable, and actionable there is scope to extend the role to deploy AI/ML solutions to take preventative actions.
• Development of data pipelines and deploying code to production is managed by the wider engineering team.
