• Design, develop, and deploy predictive machine learning models for cash flow forecasting and treasury analytics.
• Build forecasting models using time-series techniques and statistical methods.
• Perform exploratory data analysis (EDA), feature engineering, and hypothesis testing on structured and unstructured datasets.
• Develop data pipelines to ingest, clean, transform, and analyse financial and macroeconomic data from sources such as the RBI and other public datasets.
• Apply machine learning algorithms to identify patterns, anomalies, and financial risk indicators.
• Build recommendation models and predictive analytics solutions for investment products.
• Evaluate and optimise model performance using appropriate validation techniques and performance metrics.
• Collaborate with Product, Engineering, and Business teams to translate analytical insights into scalable product features.
• Create dashboards, reports, and visualisations to communicate insights to technical and business stakeholders.
• Continuously monitor, retrain, and improve models based on changing market conditions and new data.

• Strong programming skills in Python.
• Experience with time-series forecasting techniques such as ARIMA, Prophet, LSTM, or Transformer-based forecasting models.
• Strong understanding of statistics, probability, hypothesis testing, regression, classification, clustering, and optimisation techniques.
• Experience working with financial, transactional, or time-series datasets.
• Familiarity with Git and collaborative development practices.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical mindset.
• Passionate about applying machine learning to real-world business problems.
• Comfortable working with ambiguous datasets and building solutions from scratch.
• Able to communicate technical concepts effectively to non-technical stakeholders.
• Self-driven, curious, and eager to experiment with new algorithms and technologies.
  
  

• Experience working with financial markets, treasury operations, banking, investment research, or fintech.
• Understanding of macroeconomic indicators, financial modelling, and quantitative finance.
• CFA (completed or pursuing) is an added advantage.
