Project description:
Join Klarna’s global underwriting data team and take ownership of the data products that power decisioning, monitoring, and optimisation across the company. You will design and operate self-describing data products built for both AI agents and humans that serve as the single source of truth for underwriting globally. This is a hands-on engineering role with significant ownership and cross-functional collaboration, directly impacting Klarna’s risk, credit, and financial models.
Tech stack:
- Languages: SQL, PySpark, Python
- Frameworks: Apache Airflow, AWS Glue, Kafka, Redshift
- Cloud & DevOps: AWS (S3, Lambda, CloudWatch, SNS/SQS, Kinesis), Terraform, Git, CI/CD
Requirements:
- Proven experience in owning and operating mission-critical data products in both batch and streaming environments.
- Strong expertise in data modeling, schema management, data contracts, and observability practices.
- Solid understanding of building systems optimised for AI/agent use cases (e.g., agent-friendly schemas, embeddings, vector search).
- Hands-on experience with modern data infrastructure and AWS-based ecosystems.
- Excellent communication skills and fluency in English.
Main responsibilities:
- Own and maintain Klarna’s global underwriting (UW) data tables, covering canonical facts and dimensions such as applications, decisions, features, repayments, and delinquency.
- Ensure data quality and reliability through well-defined SLAs focused on freshness, completeness, accuracy, and lineage.
- Design and maintain systems optimised for both AI agents and human users, including consistent IDs, canonical event structures, explicit metric definitions, and rich metadata (schemas, data dictionaries, machine-readable contracts).
- Build and operate scalable data pipelines (batch and streaming) that feed underwriting scoring systems, real-time decisioning, monitoring, and optimisation processes.
- Implement observability and quality monitoring - alerts, audits, reconciliations, and automated backfills and drive post-incident reviews.
Collaborate closely with Credit Portfolio Management, Policy, Modelling, Treasury, and Finance teams to deliver data features supporting regulatory reporting, model development, and business optimisation.
