Follow us on LinkedIn to keep up to date with new product features and insights from the team.

The role:

You’ll be a key member of our Machine Learning and Chat pillar that is responsible for Cleo’s ability to have meaningful and delightful conversations with our users. 

Outcome 1: Improve Cleo’s ability to converse with, guide and coach our users

• Tune LLMs for our major user intents, ensuring that they reflect Cleo’s tone of voice and personality
• Ensure we have tools to quickly create and manage new intents, chatflows and replies

Outcome 2: Increase our understanding of users’ financial data and goals in order to have meaningful conversations

• Focus on accurate identification and categorisation of users’ income, bills, expenses, savings and debts
• Increase user engagement with chat, and chat as a driver of retention
• Ensure that the squad’s work aligns with the strategic direction/discovery work from other squads on what users are willing to pay for in the financial advice/coaching space

You should apply if you:

• As a guide, you'll have 3+ years of experience in a product role involving data science/machine learning, experience in personalisation/recommendations is a plus 
• Enjoy being hands on with a cross functional team of analysts, designers, data scientists and engineers
• Able to say “no” more than you say “yes” to keep the squads focused on the most impactful priorities, but also able to communicate clearly with stakeholders and get alignment
• Work collaboratively with your product squad and involve them in strategy and decision-making 
• Bring creativity into how we approach financial products. We're radically changing how people interact with and feel about their finances. This means thinking about problems in a different way, and we encourage PMs from all backgrounds to apply.
• Bring energy and drive to ensure your product is successful. People would describe you as a force of nature who cares about their team

How long will the process take?
