  • Understands heightened risks posed by AI and machine learning, including interpretability, fairness, and privacy and evaluates risk management activities to mitigate these risks.
  • Plans and executes a risk-based approach to evaluate the design and operating effectiveness of the company's model risk management, controls, and model governance programs.
  • Evaluates the design and operating effectiveness of model policies, standards, and model development procedures.
  • Demonstrates critical thinking/effective challenge over quantitative aspects of the models audited.
  • Executes duties such as assist in project management, resource management and lead junior quant staff across model audit projects
  • Documents audit work papers, conducts fieldwork, and supports Senior Manager, Director/Sr. Director in drafting audit and advisory reports.
  • Participates in audit entrance meetings, status meetings, potential findings discussions, and exit meetings with senior management or executive levels, other internal audit teams, and auditees.
  • Possesses knowledge of applied computer programming, preferably R, Python, SAS, or MATLAB.
  • Visualizes data to communicate complex patterns to executives and business users.
Qualifications:
  • Master's degree, PhD or foreign equivalent in economics, statistics, mathematics, data science, finance, engineering, computer science or related quantitative disciplines.
  • 5-7 years of model development, model risk management or model audit experience.
  • 2 to 3 years of experience successfully executing model audit testing consistent with IA methodology, policies and procedures.
  • Experience in leading junior quants during projects to deliver high work
  • Demonstrated experience in working with analytics teams, effectively managing multiple competing priorities with tight deadlines.
  • Good understanding of the business, risks, and related controls within a modeling area.
  • Willingness to learn and obtain a certification in data science and artificial intelligence.

Preferred Skills

  • Artificial intelligence and modern machine learning (e.g., ensembles, unsupervised learning, natural language processing)
Keys to Success in this Role:
