Description
The

Data Scientist Associates

(Optimization) will have the economics underpinning with a desire to make a large business impact for lines of business/functions with their thought leadership delivering strategic projects using exciting big data environments, econometrics, statistics, and technology solutions. You will have outstanding attention to details, comfortable under ambiguity and affinity for problem solving, evaluating trends and anticipating requirements directly supporting the broader CCB WFP objectives, to ensure clients, partners, stakeholders have the best and most predictive/prescriptive data available for decision making. The Data Scientist Associates shall work together at the intersection of AI, ML, Econometrics, applied scientific computing to ensure Chase maintains the best quantitative models and optimization.


Job responsibilities:

Workforce Planning (WFP) organization is a part of Consumer and Community Banking Operations division.

Workforce Planning Data Science team is tasked with delivering quantitatively driven solutions to support the core WFP functions (demand forecasting, capacity planning, resource scheduling, and business analysis & support).

The WFP team supports Chase's call centers, back office, and ~5,200 retail branches.


Projects engaged by the Data Science team can be complex, data intensive, and of a high level of difficulty, each having significant impact on the business.

Typically, these problems will be of an unstructured nature, whereby the employee will be expected to quickly assess and comprehend the situation then develop a practical problem-solving strategy.

You will be expected to analyze the topic in question, develop solution proposals and review their results and next steps with management for prioritization, timing, and delivery.

The data science optimization team is supported by the next-gen data science solutions that move us closer to real-time inference, decision making, and optimizing:

  • Schedule Optimization
  • Predictive scheduling and optimization, shift optimization


  • Operations Research

  • Branch, call center, backoffice networks simulation, Supply Chain, Inventory Management, Digitization and Whatif scenarios testing


  • Yield/Revenue Management

  • Rationalize cost to serve vs service levels, penalty cost modeling meeting contractual agreements at varying degrees of capacity, head count, and schedule impacts


  • Supply Forecasting

  • Staffing, service levels, and stress forecasting and outlooks
