- Provide analytical support for primary market opportunities, including new issuance, buybacks and other capital markets transactions
- Develop issuer-level views that support engagement with issuers and counterparties
- Monitor credit exposures across the portfolio and flag emerging risks proactively
- Help build data-driven tools and processes, including LLM-based and agentic workflows, that make credit analysis faster and more scalable
