Securitization / ABS Expert
Job Description
The opportunity
Apply securitization knowledge to AI training that connects collateral behavior with security-level cash flows and risk. Work focuses on how structures allocate payments and losses, using defined transaction terms rather than assuming that similar asset classes share identical mechanics.
What you will work on
• Create ABS, mortgage-backed-security or CLO cases within your experience, explaining the relevant collateral characteristics and the assumptions driving available cash flows.
• Review payment waterfalls, tranche priorities and structural protections, checking whether an AI answer applies the supplied transaction terms consistently.
• Evaluate scenarios involving defaults, recoveries, prepayments or changing performance, tracing their effect on distributions and security-level outcomes.
• Assess structured-credit explanations and comparisons across RMBS, ABS, CLOs or esoteric assets, identifying unsupported risk conclusions and confusion between collateral and tranche exposure.
Relevant qualifications
• Practical securitization or structured-credit knowledge covering ABS, MBS, CLOs or relevant esoteric assets, with the ability to explain their cash-flow and risk-allocation mechanics.
• Confidence reviewing transaction assumptions, tracing waterfalls and communicating model limitations. Describe the structures and collateral types in which you have direct analytical experience.
Deliverables
Transaction scenarios, checked waterfall calculations, annotated structure diagrams or schedules, and clear feedback on model answers. State the transaction assumptions and sensitivities, show the path from collateral performance to tranche outcome and identify information needed for a defensible assessment.
