Job Responsibilities
Own and evolve CCB recommendation & personalization platforms(candidate generation, ranking, re-ranking, retrieval, and real-time decisioning) to improve customer relevance and engagement across journeys and surfaces.
Lead end-to-end ML delivery: problem framing, feature strategy, model development, offline/online evaluation, A/B testing, launch, monitoring, and iteration for production recommender systems.
Develop and operationalize evaluation frameworksfor ranking and personalization (e.g., relevance/utility metrics, calibration, novelty/diversity, long-term value, bias/fairness considerations, and guardrails).
Apply NLP and search/retrieval techniquesto enrich signals (query/document understanding, embeddings, semantic retrieval, entity/intent extraction) that improve recommendation quality and explainability.
Use GenAI pragmaticallyto augment the recommendation stack (e.g., content understanding, synthetic labeling, summarization, conversational retrieval, or post-processing) with strong controls, evaluation, and risk awareness.
Build and lead a high-performing teamof applied scientists and ML engineers; set technical direction, raise engineering quality, and provide coaching and career development.
Partner cross-functionallywith Product, Design, Data, Risk/Controls, and Engineering to align on goals, prioritize roadmaps, and deliver measurable customer and business impact.

Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills:
Deep expertise inranking/retrieval/search(semantic retrieval, ANN/vector search, learning-to-rank),online experimentation, andreal-time personalization.
Experience designingfeature stores, streaming/real-time pipelines, low-latency inference, and ML observability (data/model drift, performance diagnostics).
Experience applyingNLP/LLMsto improve recommendation systems (embeddings, query understanding, content signals, retrieval augmentation) with disciplined evaluation and governance.
Familiarity withresponsible AIconsiderations relevant to personalization (fairness, explainability, privacy, and control frameworks).
