What We'll Bring:

At TransUnion, we are dedicated to finding ways information can be used to help people make better and smarter decisions. As a trusted provider of global information solutions, our mission is to help people around the world access the opportunities that lead to a higher quality of life, by helping organizations optimize their risk-based decisions and enabling consumers to understand and manage their personal information. Because when people have access to more complete and multidimensional information, they can make more informed decisions and achieve great things.

As a leader in Data Science & Analytics (DSA), the Director directs multiple teams composed of managers, analytic professionals, and data scientists in the design, development, and implementation of custom solutions and products for both external and internal customers. Responsibilities include independent execution of the full range of personnel-related functions (talent acquisition and pipeline management, training, development, goal setting, and performance management) and business functions (capacity planning, resource allocation, project management, work measurement and management reporting).

Come be a part of our team! You’ll work with great people, pioneering products and cutting-edge technology.

What You'll Bring:

Seven (7) or more years of professional experience performing applied data science or analytic consulting work in Financial Services, consumer credit, or a related industry
Three (3) or more years in progressively more challenging team management and leadership roles.
Master’s or PhD degree in statistics, applied mathematics, financial mathematics, engineering, operations research, computer science or another highly quantitative field. A track record of academic excellence.
Deep, hands-on expertise applying machine learning, statistical inference, and predictive modeling methods in a commercial setting (including rare event modeling, anomaly detection, and transaction analytics)
Proficiency in one or more analytic languages (R, Python)
Proven ability to architect and engineer machine-learning pipelines with online / real-time features
Current knowledge of and strong interest in identity fraud trends and dynamics. Ability to speak authoritatively with customers on relevant topics.
Ability to lead complex analytic projects under limited supervision. This may entail the design, development, and delivery of complex solutions in close coordination with TransUnion’s Sales and vertical support teams, and in direct communication with customers.
Strong project and time management skills to lead multiple complex portfolios and work streams simultaneously with minimal if any direct supervision in a collaborative and fast-paced environment. This may require the need to make impactful project decisions and recommendations, taking ownership for actions and providing a robust framework for justifying, defending, and documenting such actions across multiple stakeholder levels. Additionally, the role may require the management of multiple resources within a project and the effective coordination of tasks across resources using clear workflows.
Availability to travel up to 10%.

Impact You'll Make:

A work environment that encourages collaboration and innovation. We consistently explore new technologies and tools to be agile.
Flexible time off, workplace flexibility, an environment that welcomes continued professional growth through support of tuition reimbursement, conferences and seminars.

We provide a modern computing environment based on best-in-class "big data" and cloud computing technologies and the freedom to explore new data sources and statistical and machine learning methodologies.
