Manager Deposit Modeling

Your opportunity

At Schwab, you're empowered to make an impact on your career. Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us "challenge the status quo" and transform the finance industry together.

As a Manager (AI & Data Science) you will be part of the Product Modeling team within the Treasury & Capital Market department. The Product Modeling team is responsible for data-driven deposit and margin analytics, developing models for deposit/margin forecasting and pricing, and generating deposit forecasts on a recurring cadence.

A key focus of our team is to drive forward the model automation efforts across the product modeling team. We are currently building out a scalable and robust infrastructure that allows us to run forecast scenarios for BAU, market risk, and interest rate risk in a highly automated and controlled fashion. Additionally, our team is developing new analytics explaining movements in deposits and margin loans over various time frames. Based on these analytics, we develop new models that go through a rigorous model validation process. Our analytics and models provide valuable insights to our senior stakeholders not only within Treasury, but also the broader Finance organization and the overall firm.

In this role you will have the opportunity to use a wide variety of skills. Your highly quantitative background combined with your strong programming and data manipulation skills allows you to extract valuable insights from large datasets. Your strong modeling background enables you to condense your observations into robust models and your strong programming experience allows you to write production level code under a rigorous change management process. While doing all this, you collaborate closely with others and are ready to present your results and observations to a wide group of stakeholders.

If you are looking for a role where you can leverage all these skills and want to be part of a very impactful and driven team within the Treasury organization, we encourage you to apply.
