Our Time Series & Reinforcement Learning team is a passionate group of academics and ML engineers building AI inductive reasoning systems across the firm. In leading ML science in the "Derivatives House of the Year 2022" (Risk Magazine Award), this team works closely in exploring cutting-edge research and applying the latest Machine Learning techniques to J.P. Morgan's unique data assets. Our work spans the company's lines of business, with exceptional opportunities in each.

As a Machine Learning Scientist in the Time Series Reinforcement Learning team, you will apply sophisticated machine learning methods to banking applications including risk assessment, trading models, customer relationship management, and pricing models. Machine learning techniques will include feed-forward, recurrent, recursive and convolutional neural networks, maximum entropy models, and other algorithms related to time series analysis and supervised learning. We will rely on your research and work experience to help us implement intelligent and practical algorithms at scale. You will have a deep understanding of the various techniques, models and cutting edge practices in machine learning and will have insight into what works best in real-world situations. You will be at the centre of prescribing, designing and building mission-critical solutions.
