Manager 2, AI Science

Overview

Intuit’s Consumer Group, including Turbo Tax and Credit Karma, empowers millions of individuals to take control of their finances. By harnessing the power of data and artificial intelligence (AI), we continuously innovate across consumer lending, banking, and money-movement products to deliver greater value and to protect our members and our platform from risk. As we expand our Consumer Risk AI Science charter, Intuit Credit Karma is looking for an experienced, hands‑on player‑coach to join us as a Manager 2, AI Science.

In this role you will lead and grow a team of AI scientists who build, deploy, and monitor credit risk and fraud risk AI/ML models that directly affect hundreds of thousands of customers — while staying close enough to the technical work to set a high bar, unblock the team, and personally drive the most complex, ambiguous modeling problems. You will own credit risk modeling for our consumer lending and fast‑money products, and you will lead the expansion of our fraud modeling program — across three business verticals:
Banking, Workforce Wallet (WFS), and CK Invest. You will partner with the broader Consumer Risk leadership team to set strategy, drive delivery, and develop talent.

• Lead, coach, and grow a team of AI scientists
• Set the modeling strategy — owning accountability for the design, development, deployment, and monitoring of credit risk and fraud risk models; set technical direction, review the team’s work, remove blockers, and share ownership of program‑level success and key results.
• Direct the team’s data strategy — governing the sourcing and use of internal and third‑party data such as credit bureau (Experian, Trans Union, Lexis Nexis), cashflow transaction (Plaid, Nova Credit), identity and fraud (Socure, Emailage, ) and Intuit tax data — to build proprietary risk attributes and models.
• Own credit risk AI science for the consumer lending and fast‑money portfolio — including first‑generation and next‑generation credit risk underwriting, cashflow‑based underwriting, behavioral, and targeting / eligibility models — for short‑term lending products (e.g., tax refund advances, BNPL, installment loans, line of credit, and early wage access).
• Lead fraud AI/ML modeling across three verticals — Banking, Workforce Wallet (WFS), and CK Invest — owning the fraud model roadmap and its integration into real‑time and batch decisioning across the full fraud lifecycle: onboarding, money‑in, money‑out and account takeover (ATO) fraud.
• Own the end‑to‑end model lifecycle — across cloud infrastructure on Intuit AWS (Sage Maker, Redshift, Databricks) and CK GCP Vertex AI
• Own model governance and regulatory compliance (SR 11-7, FCRA, ECOA), including fair lending reviews, adverse action reason codes, and periodic performance reporting to partner banks and internal governance.
• Partner with Credit and Fraud Policy, Product, Engineering, Legal & Compliance, Model Validation, and partner banks (Web Bank, MVB) to embed models into decisioning and to shape risk solutions at the earliest stages of every product launch.
• Communicate team progress, model impact, and roadmap to senior Risk and Business leadership through regular updates, deep dives, and executive reviews.
• Lead hiring for the AI Science organization — conducting interviews, representing the modeling function on cross‑team panels, and onboarding new employees — and sponsor knowledge‑sharing sessions and adoption of modern AI tooling to increase team velocity and productivity.
• Champion a culture of Agentic AI adoption while guiding the team to design, build, and deploy AI agents and orchestration workflows that automate the end‑to‑end model development lifecycle—data exploration, feature engineering, validation, training, evaluation, and monitoring to accelerate team velocity and productivity.

• Solve hard, meaningful problems — protecting customers and their hard‑earned money while helping them access credit — alongside fun, smart people.
• Own a broad, high‑impact charter spanning credit and fraud across three growing verticals (Banking, Workforce Wallet, and CK Invest).
• Experience professional…
