At Quantexa we believe that people and organizations make better decisions when those decisions are put in context – we call this Contextual Decision Intelligence. Contextual Decision Intelligence is the new approach to data analysis that shows the relationships between people, places and organizations - all in one place - so you gain the context you need to make more accurate decisions, faster.

Founded in 2016 Quantexa helps organizations make their data more meaningful, and is the world’s leading software company providing a single networked view of internal and external data as an input to human and AI driven decision making. From compliance, fraud, anti-money laundering and credit risk to customer intelligence and master data management, Quantexa partners with Global Tier 1 Insurers and Banks, Government Agencies, Telecoms and Technology companies to deliver Contextual Decision Intelligence.

Since being founded we’ve:

• Grown to 700+ employees

• Achieved “Unicorn” status being valued at over $1B in 2023

• Recognised global tech leader by multiple researchers including both Gartner and Forrester

As part of our ongoing growth we’re standing up an ML Ops team to more efficiently build, maintain and deploy the increasing number of AI models we provide with our platform. We’re recruiting the Team Lead to establish and run this new team. You’ll be supporting our two Data Scientist teams who create the generic Machine Learning Models and Data Science based components for use in our solutions. Our Analytical Innovation Team focuses on structured data, especially graph-based models and detection of risk. Our NLP group teaches machines to understand natural language, building products to help extract meaning and insight from text, while also conducting exploratory research that we believe will drive improvements in our products and advance the state-of-the-art.

The key objectives for the ML Ops role will be to support both these teams:

  • To make it faster, and more predictable for both Quantexa’s in-house Data science teams to build, deploy, monitor and maintain the various types of Machine Learning model we are creating.
  • Make deployment of models on site and in cloud simpler, faster and more consistent.
  • Where possible, and appropriate, the tools created should be extensible for use by clients for their custom ML models based on Quantexa Platform.
