  • Help design and document risk methodologies in line with Mexican and Basel requirements, accounting for the characteristics of financial instruments
  • Use SQL and Python to automate risk calculations, reporting and dashboards using DWH data
  • Investigate deviations in risk metrics, analyze their drivers, and communicate findings clearly to stakeholders to support risk management decisions

What makes you a great fit:

  • FRM or CFA qualifications

Our ways of working:

  • Honest Feedback: valuing open, transparent communication
  • Supportive Team: a strong, collaborative community
  • Celebrating Achievements: recognizing our wins together
  • High-Tech Environment: a team full of smart and revolutionary people who dare to challenge the status quo of incumbent finances

Our benefits:

  • Relocation support to Georgia with assistance for the employee and their family
  • Flexible work from one of our offices or remotely within time zones from GMT-2 to GMT+5
