Develop and Optimize Machine Learning Models :

- Implement Machine Learning for Exception Classification (MLEC) to classify financial exceptions.

- Conduct Missing Value Imputation using statistical and ML-based techniques.

- Develop Early Warning Signals for detecting anomalies in multi-variate/univariate time-series financial data.

- Build Model Surveillance frameworks to monitor financial models.

- Apply Unsupervised Clustering techniques for market segmentation in securities lending.

- Develop Advanced Data Quality Control frameworks using TensorFlow-based validation techniques.

Experimentation & Validation :

- Evaluate ML algorithms using cross-validation and performance metrics.

- Implement data science best practices and document findings.

Data Quality and Governance :

- Develop QC mechanisms to ensure high-quality data processing and model outputs.

Required Skillset :

- Strong expertise in Machine Learning & AI (Supervised & Unsupervised Learning).

- Proficiency in Python, TensorFlow, SQL, and Jupyter Notebooks.

- Deep understanding of time-series modeling, anomaly detection, and risk analytics.

- Experience with big data processing and financial data pipelines.

- Ability to deploy scalable ML models in a cloud environment.

Deliverables & Timeline :

- Machine Learning for Exception Classification (MLEC) : Working codes & documentation

- Missing Value Imputation : Implementation & validation reports

- Early Warning Signals : Data onboarding & anomaly detection models

- Model Surveillance : Fully documented monitoring framework

- Securities Lending : Clustering algorithms for financial markets

- Advanced Data QC : Development of a general-purpose QC library
