You'll partner closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Risk to turn ambiguous, high-stakes problems into production-grade systems, and play a direct part in defining the future of fintech across the region. This is a role for someone ready to operate with limited guidance: scoping their own work, making sound technical calls, and being accountable for the systems they build. What you'll do: - Own statistical and machine learning models for problems like customer segmentation, credit scoring, and fraud detection, from framing through deployment. - Translate ambiguous business problems into well-scoped analytical solutions with measurable impact. - Take models into production yourself in partnership with data engineers, and stay accountable for them once they're live. - Dig into user behavior and transactional data to surface trends, patterns, and opportunities others miss. - Communicate findings and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. - Monitor model health after deployment and continuously improve performance over time. - Contribute to our internal data science frameworks, tooling, and engineering best practices. To succeed in this role, you'll need to have: - 3+ years of hands-on data science or applied ML experience, including at least one model you took from problem framing through production. - Strong proficiency in Python (NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn) and SQL. - Solid grounding in statistics, probability, and core machine learning methods. - Experience working with large-scale datasets on cloud platforms (AWS preferred). - Sound engineering judgment and the ability to work independently within a collaborative team. - Strong communication skills and a track record of working effectively across functions. - Experience in fintech or consumer finance, especially with regulated problems like credit or fraud. Nice to have: - Familiarity with MLOps tooling such as MLflow and Docker. - Experience with BI tools such as Looker or Tableau. ## About Klivvr ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Klivvr is an all-in-one financial app that enables users in Egypt to spend, save, send money, manage family finances, and access buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) services through a single platform. - **Entity Type**: Private (subsidiary of Orascom Financial Holding, OFH) - **Headquarters**: Zamalek, Cairo, Egypt - **Founded**: 2021 - **Founders**: Onsi Sawiris (Founder & Board Member) ## Core Business - Primary industry/industries: Fintech, Consumer Financial Services - Target customers: B2C (individuals and families in Egypt) - Mission or purpose statement: “Made Clear” – helping users gain full control over their spending, saving, and planning with clarity. ## Products & Services - **Klivvr Single Card**: A prepaid card that earns 1 point for every E£1 spent; includes real-time card control, instant money transfers, and spending insights. - **Klivvr Family**: Up to 5 cards for household members with separate access, parental controls, and tracking; earns 2 points per E£1 spent. - **Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL)**: Instant credit limit to convert payments into installments. - **K.ai**: Egypt’s first interactive financial AI assistant integrated into the app, providing smarter insights and financial decision support. - **K.Points Rewards**: Points that convert into cash or discounts at partner stores. - **K.Shop**: Marketplace for purchases using Klivvr balance or credit. - **Auto Loans & One-Time Ticket Financing**: Specialized lending products for vehicle purchases and event tickets. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available - **Key Metric**: Total investment in technology and digital innovation – over USD 10 million (as of July 2026).
