Vice President - Data Science / Applied AI ML
senior · Data Science & Analytics
Job Responsibilities:
- Lead the CCOR Conduct Data Science initiatives to design, deploy, and operate production-grade GenAI/AI/ML solutions across risk and compliance use cases, with a strong focus on measurable risk mitigation and regulatory alignment.
- Drive research and applied innovation in supervised/unsupervised/semi‑supervised learning, graph/network analytics, anomaly detection, and weak supervision to improve true-positive rates, reduce false positives, and enhance investigator productivity.
- Own end-to-end model lifecycle: problem framing, data sourcing/controls, feature engineering (customer/behavioral/temporal/graph features), model development, validation, calibration/thresholding, bias/fairness checks, monitoring, and retraining.
- Maintain rigorous model risk management practices across Model lifecycle, partnering with Model Risk and Internal Audit.
- Build and maintain robust MLOps pipelines (CI/CD for ML), model registries, automated monitoring (data drift, concept drift, performance), and governance artifacts to ensure reliable, scalable production operations.
- Partner with Risk and Compliance (RCC), Investigations, Operations, and Technology to translate typologies, red flags, and regulatory expectations into defensible ML controls and measurable control effectiveness.
- Enhance decisioning through interpretable ML: deploy explainability techniques (e.g., SHAP, LIME, counterfactuals), stable reason codes, and human-in-the-loop feedback loops to continuously improve model precision and usability.
Maintain a pragmatic view of GenAI/LLMs as complementary tools (e.g., narrative generation for cases, unstructured doc parsing) while prioritizing classical/statistical/graph ML methods for core detection efficacy.
Required Qualifications and Skills:
- Master’s or PhD in a quantitative discipline (Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, Operations Research, or related).
- Minimum of 7 years of hands-on Gen AI/ AI/ ML experience within Financial Crime Compliance, AML, sanctions, fraud, or related risk & compliance domains; deep knowledge of regulatory & control expectations.
- Proven leadership delivering production AI/ML for compliance & risk, including transaction monitoring models, risk scoring, anomaly detection, network/graph analytics, and/or investigator triage/prioritization at enterprise scale.
- Advanced Python skills; strong experience with AI/ML frameworks.
- Expertise in supervised learning, anomaly detection, semi‑supervised learning, clustering, feature stores, and calibration/threshold optimization; familiarity with imbalanced learning and cost-sensitive evaluation.
- Demonstrated experience in model risk management: documentation, validation, benchmarking/challenger models, back testing, stability and drift analysis, champion/challenger governance, and explainability suitable for regulatory review.
- Excellent communication skills to translate and explain complex models with clear reason codes, and influence cross-functional stakeholders and senior leadership.
- Ability to mentor junior team members through code reviews, pairing, and technical guidance
