Machine Learning Engineer – Freelance Model Audit
Luca Ferretti
Freelance · Mid-level · London
About the role
In early 2024, we deployed a credit risk scoring model into our loan origination pipeline. It has been running without a formal review since. Our compliance team has flagged this ahead of an upcoming regulatory audit. We need an experienced ML engineer to conduct a time-boxed audit: assess model drift, evaluate performance across demographic segments, and deliver a written report suitable for our compliance and risk teams. The scope is well-defined and the documentation is thorough — we just need the right expertise.
