Moody's is seeking an Analytics & Modeling Analyst to join the Modeling & Quantitative Analytics Group within the Credit Strategy & Solutions (CSS) team. This role focuses on structured finance credit analysis and modeling, supporting the development and maintenance of credit rating models and scorecards used in the rating and verification process.
Key responsibilities include reviewing and monitoring complex cash flow models using fixed income software, assisting with quantitative projects to enhance the rating process (including structured finance simulations and macroeconomic analysis), and contributing to professional training of models and scorecards for rating teams. You will act as a key point of contact providing guidance to rating teams on model consistency, develop in-depth knowledge of credit rating models and scorecards, and create user guides and training materials for new and existing systems.

Expert-level Excel and VBA skills are essential, with Python, SQL, or MATLAB experience a plus. You should have the ability to comprehend and analyze complex legal documents related to financial structures, a solid understanding of fixed income markets, and high attention to detail with strong organizational and analytical capabilities.
A Bachelor's degree in Financial Engineering, Mathematical Finance, Quantitative Analysis, Statistics, or a related field is required; a Master's degree is preferred. The role also values basic understanding of AI concepts and curiosity about how AI tools can improve processes and drive efficiency, including awareness of responsible AI practices.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with structured finance expertise and coding experience to join a growing team dedicated to improving credit analysis quality and consistency. You will develop deep expertise in cash flow modeling of structured finance transactions while working with a collaborative team focused on rating performance research.
