Senior Data Scientist – Credit Risk & Loss Modelling

Location: Sydney |

Salary: Up to $200k + Super + Bonus

The Role:
Join a high-growth financial services brand driving real AI and data transformation. This is production-first work, not experimentation. You’ll own credit risk, loss forecasting, and pricing models that directly influence mortgage and asset finance portfolios.
What You’ll Do

• Own and productionise credit risk and loss models, including pricing and portfolio optimisation
• Maintain and improve existing models, monitoring performance and retraining where needed
• Work with mortgage, consumer, and commercial finance data to drive real-world outcomes
• Partner with credit, risk, and product teams to embed models into daily decisioning
• Optimise model performance across CoreLogic-style datasets and internal product data
• Deliver actionable insights and robust BAU pipelines that impact business performance

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience in credit risk modelling, loss forecasting, or pricing
• Strong skills in statistical modelling, ML, and production deployment
• Experience with mortgage, consumer, or commercial lending data
• Comfortable with model monitoring, retraining, and lifecycle management
• Ambition to progress into a Principal Data Scientist / technical authority role

Why This Role Stands Out

• Focus on real-world BAU modelling, not PoCs or theory
• Direct impact on credit strategy, pricing, and portfolio performance
• Exposure to enterprise AI-enabled decision systems
• Clear progression to senior/principal technical leadership
