What you’ll do Own the global UW tables (canonical facts/dimensions for applications, decisions, features, repayments, delinquency) with clear SLAs for freshness, completeness, accuracy, and data lineage. Design for AI-agents and humans: consistent IDs, canonical events, explicit metric definitions, rich metadata (schemas, data dictionaries), and machine-readable data contracts. Build & run pipelines (batch + streaming) that feed UW scoring, real-time decisioning, monitoring, and underwriting optimization. Instrument quality & observability (alerts, audits, reconciliation, backfills) and drive incident/root-cause reviews. Partner closely with Credit Portfolio Management, Policy teams, Modeling teams, and treasury and finance teams to land features for RUE and consumer-centric models, plus regulatory and management reporting.
