The ideal candidate should have hands-on knowledge on common loss forecasting methodologies (e.g. econometrics modeling, survival modeling, state transition, Markov Chain etc.) and excellent knowledge of data science, statistical methodologies and machine learning models (e.g. linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, gradient boosting, random forests, neural network, clustering analysis etc.).

By joining SoFi, you'll become part of a forward-thinking company that is transforming financial services for the better. We offer the excitement of a rapidly growing startup with the stability of an industry leading leadership team.

  • Developing quantitative/machine learning models to forecast product losses
  • Aggregating and synthesizing datasets from multiple data environments
  • Analyzing complex datasets to understand the performance and drivers for losses across various products
  • Investigating external credit data to identify trends in the market and industry
  • Conducting loss sensitivity analysis
  • Automating models and analytical dashboards
  • Monitoring the models' performance and re-calibrating the models as needed
  • May lead/mentor junior data scientists to develop and deploy complex modeling solutions from initial concepts to final deliverables
  • Working with Business Units, Operations, Product, Capital Markets, Finance, Accounting and Risk partners to ensure correct loss expectations and trend of losses are communicated effectively and executed appropriately

What you'll need:

  • 8+ years of loss forecasting experience with a Master's or PhD degree in Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, Engineering, Computer Science, or a quantitative field.
  • Deep understanding and extensive experience in developing and deploying modeling solutions from initial concepts to final deliverables.
  • Excellent knowledge of data science, statistical methodologies and machine learning models, e.g. linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, gradient boosting, random forests, neural network, clustering analysis etc.
  • Hands-on knowledge on common loss forecasting methodologies, e.g. econometrics modeling, discrete survival modeling, state transition, Markov Chain etc.
  • Strong presentation skills: able to use data to tell a clear and compelling story; comfortable with public speaking across various forums, including regulatory examinations, and able to effectively and logically communicate when information is being challenged in an open forum.
  • Ability and confidence to exercise influence over a wide range of individuals at different levels of technical and business leadership.
  • Someone who is highly motivated and drives change, is eager to learn and able to work collaboratively in a complex and fluid environment
  • Proficient in Python, SQL & Tableau
