Cobre is Latin America's leading instant B2B payments platform, solving complex money movement challenges across the region. The company enables instant business payments—local or international, direct or via API—from a single platform, serving fintechs, PSPs, banks, and finance teams.
You will build the quantitative engine behind Cobre's Liquidity Intelligence Platform, owning forecasting and optimization models that predict cash flow across accounts and payment rails, determine optimal funding positions, and price liquidity and FX risk in real time. This is a full-stack role: you build models, ship them into production, and own the validation methodology that proves they work.
Key responsibilities include:
**Cash Flow Forecasting**: Build and maintain forecasting models predicting inflows and outflows across bank accounts, rails, and currencies (COP, MXN, USD, USDT/USDC). Own model selection, feature engineering, backtesting discipline, and retraining cadence as volume scales. Forecast quality directly impacts downstream funding recommendations, risk classification, and capital efficiency.
**Liquidity Optimization & Decisioning**: Design optimization models (linear/mixed-integer programming over time-expanded networks) that convert forecasts into funding recommendations—determining how much to move, from where, to where, by when, at what cost and risk. Define constraint sets, tune objective functions, and work with engineering to translate solver output into actionable operator decisions.
**Day-to-Day Work**: Own the full model lifecycle from problem framing through deployment and monitoring. Use AI tools to accelerate your modeling loop. Partner closely with PM and engineers to define what's worth modeling. Design backtests, baselines, and live-monitoring metrics proving models work before granting autonomy. Work directly with real financial exposure—your models touch funding decisions, NSF/overdraft risk, and FX pricing. Translate model behavior for Treasury, Finance, and Sales stakeholders. Stay close to data, sanity-checking inputs and outputs independently.
You'll have a technical dotted line into Cobre's Data & AI Center of Excellence, providing peer support on similar problems across the company. The squad's philosophy: build the industry's leading real-time liquidity management system enabling exponential payment volume scaling through superior liquidity efficiency.
