We're an award winning team with a proven track record of combining data science technique with an intimate knowledge of payments data to aid Financial Institutions in their fight against money laundering and fraud.

Role As a Data Scientist, you will join one of the first teams in the world looking at payments data in the UK and across the world. In the research discipline you will help build systems that expose money laundering and detect fraud as well as work with the other data scientists and clients to understand the underlying behaviours employed by criminals. You will be product focused, working in close collaboration with our engineering and operations data scientists as well as the wider sales, consulting, and product teams. In this position, you will: • Perform proof-of-concept projects, engage in product design and build prototypes. • Use the full range of data science based techniques to develop new and novel algorithms to aid existing and new financial crime products. • Be able to perform novel research to help us and our clients understand the different criminal behaviours in payments data. • Think about how derived insights can be turned into new products and services we can offer to external clients. • Be ready to learn new technologies as required and engage with legacy and future technology stacks, in the UK and internationally. • Write white papers, patents, and client facing data visualisations. • Consider the full impact of your work.

You can engage in constructive criticism and aren't afraid to have your code reviewed. As we are often breaking new ground, both for Mastercard and more widely in our sector, we strongly encourage exploring new technologies and techniques. Some of the following experience is therefore desirable: • Practical experience using streaming technologies, including streaming platforms (e.g. Kafka), online algorithms (e.g. stochastic gradient descent), and fixed-memory data structures (e.g. Bloom Filters). • Experience using next generation machine learning techniques and tools, including Deep Neural Networks and TensorFlow. • Exposure to Network Theory, especially social network analysis and graph diffusion analysis. Ability to build custom data visualisations, prototype browser based UX/UI, and the server side microservices to support them.

Role As a Data Scientist, you will join one of the first teams in the world looking at payments data in the UK and across the world. In the research discipline you will help build systems that expose money laundering and detect fraud as well as work with the other data scientists and clients to understand the underlying behaviours employed by criminals.

You are able to communicate with non-tech colleagues about technical matters, and you are comfortable putting yourself in other people's shoes. You are happy and excited to explore new programming languages, technologies, and techniques. You have a can-do attitude, can be pragmatic where necessary, and are excited to work as part of a specialist team. You can engage in constructive criticism and aren't afraid to have your code reviewed. As we are often breaking new ground, both for Mastercard and more widely in our sector, we strongly encourage exploring new technologies and techniques. Some of the following experience is therefore desirable: Practical experience using streaming technologies, including streaming platforms (e.g. Kafka), online algorithms (e.g. stochastic gradient descent), and fixed-memory data structures (e.g. Bloom Filters). Experience using next generation machine learning techniques and tools, including Deep Neural Networks and TensorFlow. Exposure to Network Theory, especially social network analysis and graph diffusion analysis. Ability to build custom data visualisations, prototype browser based UX/UI, and the server side microservices to support them.
