Senior Machine Learning Engineer (Financial Business)
PaypayPayPay’s Financial Business Development Division is responsible for planning and executing new financial businesses to evolve PayPay from a payment app into a “financial super app.” Focusing on three areas—Web3, global expansion (international alliances), and AI/data utilization—the division promotes product development using partnerships with leading players in Japan and overseas, as well as cutting-edge technologies. Building on a user base of more than 70 million, it aims to create advanced, smartphone-centric financial experiences on a global scale. PayPay aims to become the No. 1 fintech company and bring new ways of thinking about finance to the world. AI and data utilization are central to business growth and product evolution. We are implementing AI and machine learning technologies in real-world services, using the large volumes of data generated by our payment and financial services to provide more convenient and secure financial experiences for users and merchants. In the financial services domain for users and merchants, the team uses data for risk assessment and product improvement. It has designed and developed the data utilization and machine learning systems that underpin core financial services for merchants, including PayPay Funding and PayPay Merchant Loans. Going forward, we will continue creating new financial experiences across a range of services by leveraging AI and data technologies. PayPay operates in mission-critical areas directly involving money and user data. In addition to meeting business requirements and delivering high performance, machine learning models must be reliable, explainable, stable, secure, and continuously improved. Raising AI systems, which inherently involve uncertainty, to a quality level suitable for safe use in financial services is a significant challenge. The team works closely with business teams and takes end-to-end responsibility, from defining problems through designing and implementing ML systems to operating them in production. We go beyond model development and take ownership within our team of the architecture, data quality, monitoring, and operational improvements needed to make these systems work as part of products and business processes. We welcome people who want to understand business challenges and deliver machine learning as real product value to society, rather than limiting their work to research or proof-of-concept projects. Experience in the financial domain is not required. In PayPay’s financial business areas—including credit, banking, insurance, and asset management—you will lead the development of credit scoring, risk management, and marketing models, as well as the design of system architectures for AI utilization. Drawing on deep expertise in mathematical engineering and statistics, you will envision and design the overall structure of optimal machine learning systems that meet business requirements such as explainability, stability, and cost. As a tech lead, you will drive real-world implementation in collaboration with in-house engineers and data scientists. Your responsibilities will include designing and developing key models in the financial domain; defining business requirements at the outset of projects; selecting and designing predictive models that account for data bias and business constraints; and defining quality requirements and designing architectures for machine learning systems. You will also help shape the development culture by working with engineers, data scientists, and data analysts to determine development approaches for productization, conduct code reviews, and advance testing strategies. You will update the architecture of the mechanisms for model training, evaluation, monitoring, and continuous improvement (MLOps) across PayPay’s financial businesses and drive operational improvements. You will have the opportunity to develop services that provide better financial experiences to more than 70 million users and merchants across Japan. You can work with data that only you have access to and business challenges that only your team can experience, while playing a central role in growing the organization’s use of AI. Although you will belong to a business development division, you will work closely with colleagues who have diverse areas of expertise and with members of other departments, broadening your communication skills and perspective.
