Compliance Technology Program Lead

Build with Modern AI Tools

• Use AI agents (Claude and similar LLM-based tools) to build automation that scales oversight, monitoring, and documentation work — including drafting requirements, exam-ready documentation, data quality monitoring and ongoing model performance reporting.
• Design human-in-the-loop checkpoints so that automated outputs remain defensible to regulators and independent monitors.
• Establish and maintain model and data governance frameworks aligned with SR 11-7 and OCC 2011-12, including a revamped Detection Requirements Document (DRD) process so engineering teams can ship defensible models at pace.
• Provide effective challenge throughout the model development lifecycle and partner with BSA/AML Policy and CAX to ensure documentation is exam-ready.

Lead Ongoing Monitoring

• Lead the design and development of real-time dashboards to monitor model health, including input data monitoring and ongoing model performance.
• Set standards for threshold tuning and ongoing Below the Line (BTL) testing controls.
• Establish frameworks and triggers for identifying when model performance is degrading and requires tuning or deprecation. Partner during subsequent tuning exercises and ensure changes are within risk appetite and documented defensibly.

Provide End-to-End Oversight of Model Development

• Oversee Transaction Monitoring models, including heuristic and rules-based detection logic, threshold settings (below the line testing), and the data pipelines that feed alerts.
• Oversee blockchain analytics and screening tools (TRM, Chainalysis), with attention to typology coverage, alert quality, and integration with downstream investigations.
• Oversee Sanctions Screening models (LexisNexis), including list management, fuzzy-match tuning, and false-positive reduction.
• Oversee Customer Risk Scoring models, including segmentation logic, periodic recalibration, and effective challenge of risk drivers.
• Oversee the design and validation of AI-driven case resolution — LLM-based and ML-based models that triage, enrich, or disposition alerts — ensuring decisions are explainable, auditable, and defensible to regulators.

You Have

• Experience with both Machine Learning and Heuristic models across Transaction Monitoring, Sanctions Screening, and Customer Risk Scoring.
• Experience with input data quality monitoring.
• Experience with model performance monitoring.
• Experience conducting AML model validations aligned with SR 11-7 and OCC 2011-12.
• Experience responding to examinations and consent orders, and working with regulators and independent monitors.
• Experience with virtual currencies, including the unique transaction monitoring and sanctions screening considerations they present.
• Familiarity with blockchain analytics and screening tools such as Chainalysis and TRM Labs.
• A track record of driving cross-functional initiatives.
• A working understanding of regulated financial services and corresponding compliance obligations.
• Familiarity with statistical concepts related to machine learning.
