About Penbrothers

Penbrothers is an HR & remote talent management partner and one of the fastest growing companies in the Philippines. We provide talented Filipinos with global opportunities in high-growth startups and dynamic companies, from the comfort of their own homes.


About the Client

Our client is shaking up an outdated financial system by providing real opportunity for our customers: the opportunity to get the cash they need, to access fair credit, and to change their financial story. Today, we’re helping millions of people find financial security through machine learning models that evaluate creditworthiness using a more inclusive lens and mobile-first products: Cash Advance, Thrive line of credit, and Petal credit cards. Tomorrow? Creating even more financial paths for our customers (and their wallets) to succeed.


About the Role

Our client is looking for a talented data scientist to lead their launch in Southeast Asia — starting with the Philippines. In this role, you’ll be responsible for the entire model development process from conception with stakeholders, creation of model pipelines, technical development, deployment. You’ll collaborate with a small, experienced team of credit analysts, product managers, engineers, designers, and marketers in a “startup within a startup” environment. You’ll own our model development roadmap and execution for the new business, expanding access to fair credit in one of the world’s fastest-growing regions. And you’ll be supported by Empower’s deep expertise and experience from the US and Mexico.


The ideal candidate is passionate about using data and models to drive business growth and help customers improve their financial situations. This individual will own creating and improving credit risk models to help the business decrease loss rates and increase approval rates. The right person for this role is someone who shines while solving complex problems and is comfortable with a wide variety of technical tools. Travel for company offsites is expected at a minimum 2 times a year.


What you’ll do

  • Grow user base, increase retention and lower loss rate through machine learning and analytics for Empower’s new Southeast Asia business

  • Build machine learning models with large scale data sets to address business priorities

  • Design and influence strategies on underwriting, marketing, fraud and customer experience

  • Work closely with our engineering team as you implement models in production
