Manager, Data Analysis - PULSE Risk & Compliance

We are seeking a highly analytical, Manager Data Analysis to join our Data Strategy team.

In this role as a Manager, Data Analysis, you will help build the framework and manipulate/analyze large datasets to understand PULSE transaction anomalies and risk exposure. This is a hybrid role designed for someone who speaks the language of machine learning, data architecture, and modeling, but also deeply understands regulatory frameworks, risk controls, and compliance mandates. You will be responsible for ensuring that our data-driven strategies are not only highly effective and scalable, but also ethical, explainable, and strictly compliant with industry regulations.

If you are a recovering data scientist who loves policy, or a risk and compliance manager who writes Python on the weekends, this is the role for you.

  Conduct root-cause analyses on transactions and translating complex data findings into actionable risk mitigation strategies.
• Data Analytics:

• Executive Reporting:
  Synthesize highly technical data into clear, compelling narratives and present risk exposure, incident reports, and strategic recommendations to senior leadership.
• Critical Thinking & Problem Solving:
