Mô tả công việc

Data infrastructure and pipeline:

• Create, build, and maintain the infrastructure required for optimal extraction, transformation, and loading of data from a wide variety of sources.
• Deliver high-quality, production-ready data pipelines that bring and cleanse data from source systems to support AFC model build.
• Implement processes/systems to monitor data quality, and drive optimization, testing, and tooling to improve data quality.
• Design and/or evaluate open source or vendor tools to be used for data lineage mapping.
• Make sure info/data flow from system to system is correct.

Support model development and deployment:

• Liaise closely with relevant stakeholders (e.g., Data Management Office) to identify and assess the suitability of data for AFC models.
• Liaise with Business Analysts and ensure assembled data sets used for model building meet business requirements.
• Support Data Scientist(s) in developing model narratives by providing inputs from a data perspective (e.g., data requirements, data availability).
• Support Data Scientist(s) in ongoing testing of models/outputs during development, prior to more formal model validation by an independent team.
• Create a model deployment pipeline to automate the deployment of models in bank environments/systems, and work closely with Data Scientist(s) in the Modelling team and other stakeholders (e.g., Group Technology and Operations) to ensure models are production-ready.
• Ensure the seamless deployment of new AFC analytics solutions and models without breaking anything or creating unintended effects in the production pipeline.

Enhancement and support:

• Identify, design, and implement enhancements for internal processes related to data (e.g., optimizing data delivery, re-designing infrastructure for greater scalability) to improve data reliability, efficiency, and quality.
• Perform data analysis required to troubleshoot data-related issues and support the resolution of raised data issues.
• Support the bank in adopting and/or migrating to a new production environment, if needed.

Team Contributions:

• Support the validation team in defining and maintaining minimum standards of model performance.
• Keep up to date with changes to regulatory requirements, recommendations, and industry standards in analytics and management of AML / AFC risk, and propose updates to minimum standards of model development.
• Support the developing validation calendar.
• Where required, provide views on tools/system enhancements required to conduct model validation.

Model Validation:

• Conduct independent validation of AFC / AML models as per the standards defined by the validation team, and document all findings in a comprehensive report.
• Review further action by model owners on areas of attention identified in previous reports related to the same model, and call out gaps (if any).
• Check and challenge all steps of the model creation, data usage, and value to the business. Review all codes used in model development and implementation for accuracy and consistency with the documented approach.
• Where needed, produce and present reports to various working teams on validation findings.
• Prepare independent reports on the performance of AFC models for senior management on a regular basis.
• Remain involved in the review panel for any new models developed by the Modelling team / other teams when delegated by the validation lead.

Other tasks as assigned by the Country Head of Compliance from time to time.
