Who We Are

Quantifind is the Risk Intelligence company. We help some of the world’s biggest banks identify money laundering and fraud. Quantifind also works with government agencies, using the same platform, to uncover criminal networks and support national security. Unlike other players in this space, Quantifind delivers results through an AI-driven software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution with consumer-grade user experiences.

Quantifind’s Graphyte platform uncovers signals of risk across disparate and unstructured text sources using artificial intelligence and natural language processing techniques. In financial crimes risk management, Quantifind’s solution uniquely combines internal financial institution data with public domain data to assess risk in the context of Know Your Customer (KYC), Customer Due Diligence (CDD), Fraud Risk Management, and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) processes. Today, these compliance processes are burdened by ever-increasing regulatory responsibilities and an expectation of frictionless transactions. Legacy technologies demand increasingly more human resources as the operations expand; Quantifind’s solution offers a way to cut through the inefficiency and enhance effectiveness simultaneously. Demand for this solution is fueling our rapid growth.

To help you succeed, we provide a supportive environment that fosters collaboration between teams and team members, where learning and professional growth are considered a key part of your success, and of ours. We offer a flexible work environment with a family-friendly work-life balance.

What a Great Candidate Looks Like:

  • At least 2 years of professional industry experience, in addition to your academic experience.
  • Proficient in two or more of the following: Scala / Java, Python, R.
  • Outstanding quantitative and analytical ability. Able to take less-than-precise business requirements and translate them into Quantitative problems that you enjoy solving.
  • In-depth knowledge of Statistics / Probability / Machine Learning, including foundations such as bias/variance trade-off, regularization, dimension reduction, and model explanation.
  • Prior experience with Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods such as Word and Contextual Embeddings, Named Entity Recognition, Topic Modeling, large-scale Document Classification, and Sequence-to-Sequence Models is a significant plus.
  • Ability to apply software engineering best practices to build scalable, reliable ML pipelines. Comfortable prototyping algorithms, iterating quickly, and working collaboratively.
  • Prior experience working with large-scale datasets (Millions of records) using SQL and Spark.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, prior experience explaining assumptions, conclusions, and methodology to technical and non-technical audiences.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
