Applied AI ML Director - Nlp / LLM and Graphs

JPMorgan Chase JPMorgan Chase · Banking · LONDON, LONDON, United Kingdom · Corporate Sector

Director-level role focused on applying advanced ML techniques, particularly NLP, LLMs, and Graphs, to solve real-world problems within a regulated financial environment. The role involves developing state-of-the-art models, deploying solutions into production, driving firm-wide initiatives with large-scale frameworks, and researching new ML methods. Emphasis on agentic AI/multi-agent systems and LLM evaluation.

What you'd actually do

  1. Develop state-of-the art machine learning models to solve real-world problems and apply it to tasks such as natural language processing (NLP), speech recognition and analytics, time-series predictions or recommendation systems
  2. Collaborate with multiple partner teams such as Business, Technology, Product Management, Legal, Compliance, Strategy and Business Management to deploy solutions into production
  3. Drive Firm wide initiatives by developing large-scale frameworks to accelerate the application of machine learning models across different areas of the business
  4. Research and explore new machine learning methods through independent study, attending industry-leading conferences, experimentation and participating in our knowledge sharing community
