Machine Learning Engineer role focused on developing and operating ML products for credit-scoring and AI solutions to optimize business operations in a buy now pay later fintech company.

О компании

The AI team is part of the Data department. We build and operate the ML products at the core of Alma's business such as credit-scoring to offer a frictionless payment experience while minimizing defaults and maximizing acceptance.
We've recently broadened our scope beyond risk into AI for operational intelligence - delivering AI solutions that make Alma's operational teams more effective and answer new business needs, including revenue forecast and debt collection optimization. So you'll work across both our core risk models and a growing portfolio of new ML initiatives.
We're a team of five, owning our products end-to-end, from modelling all the way to the production systems that serve and monitor them. You'll report to the ML Engineering Manager ( Bastien ) and work closely with Data, SRE and Quantitative Analysis.

Обязанности

As a Machine Learning Engineer, you'll own ML products end-to-end - splitting time between developing models, and the platform that runs them. Concretely, you will:
Own ML models across their full lifecycle - from data pipelines and feature engineering to training, evaluation, deployment and monitoring; choosing the right metrics and guarding against leakage, overfitting and drift.
Run and improve our ML platform - own the team's GitOps CI/CD and release process, monitor serving endpoints, latency and load in Datadog, and define the SLOs and alerting that keep models reliable in production.
Turn ML into business value across the org - collaborate with risk, operational and product teams to spot and ship ML opportunities, from credit scoring to AI for operational intelligence, sharing your expertise through code reviews and tech watch.

You're hybrid - hands-on with MLOps and infrastructure (data pipelines, monitoring, system design, live prediction / streaming) and at ease reasoning about latency, scale and reliability.
You're autonomous, analytical and business-driven , with professional English and working proficiency in French (the team's day-to-day language).
Have experience with GCP, Docker, or graph databases.
You have experience with LLMs, both as development tools and as components embedded in product systems.
Have a background in credit scoring, BNPL ("Buy Now Pay Later"), or financial services and fraud.
Don't meet every single requirement? At Alma, we believe great hires come from diverse paths. If this role excites you, we encourage you to apply. We value potential, curiosity and the ability to grow as much as experience.
 
If you join, you will be able to grow and impact on:
Visible impact - your models directly move Alma's bottom line, and you'll see it in the scoring and debt collection KPIs.
A modern ML platform to build on and improve - a GitOps/MLOps stack (Argo CD, GitHub Actions, dbt, Datadog) you'll own and shape.
Real breadth - from core risk models to AI for operational intelligence, with genuine ownership across modelling and infrastructure in a small, autonomous team.
At Alma, we believe that diversity fuels innovation and makes our community stronger.
