Job Description




Job Title: Senior Technical Project Manager


Department: Professional Services and AI Value Delivery


Reports To: Customer Engagement Manager


Travel: Up to 25% for customer engagements at bank sites



As a Technical Project Manager, you will own the end-to-end delivery of SensaAI and NetReveal deployments at major financial institutions. You will lead complex, multi-stream projects spanning transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, KYC, and fraud, acting as the single point of accountability for delivery quality, timelines, regulatory readiness, and customer satisfaction.




Responsibilities:



Run Strong, Modern Project Management:

• Lead multi-workstream programs spanning product, data science, engineering, security, customer IT, customer compliance and fraud teams, and third-party system integrators across multiple jurisdictions.


• Run delivery the AI Fast way - short cycles, working software, instrumented decisions, and decisions made on evidence rather than opinion, even inside long bank change-management calendars.


• Maintain rigorous operating cadence: kickoff, weekly delivery, risk and issue management, change control, financial tracking, lessons learned, and the regulator-grade documentation expected in financial services.


• Build repeatable delivery assets - playbooks, accelerators, model tuning patterns, MRM evidence templates, and reference deployments.


• Use AI tools in your own workflow - for planning, status synthesis, risk analysis, alert and scenario review, customer artifacts, and quality checks.


• Drive and champion AI adoption within teams, ensuring its practical use delivers measurable business value.

Deploy AI Financial Crime Technology Successfully, In Production:

• Own the successful end-to-end delivery of SensaAI and NetReveal deployments - from kickoff through model tuning, user acceptance, go-live, hypercare, and customer success handoff.


• Orchestrate cross-functional teams to ensure the technical solution is coherent, compliant, and delivers against agreed financial crime objectives.


• Drive AI deployment readiness for regulated environments: data lineage, model evaluation and explainability, alert quality benchmarks, and more.


• Operationalize the AI value case in production with the bank.


• Produce model risk management evidence packs that satisfy SR 11-7, SS1/23, and equivalent regulatory regimes.

Manage Senior Bank Stakeholders with Rigor and Empathy:

• Serve as the trusted delivery counterpart to the customer's executive team, including Chief Compliance Officer, MLRO, Head of Financial Crime, and CIO.


• Run regular steering committee meetings, regulator-facing readouts, and decision forums.


• Guide the bank through change management for investigators, model reviewers, and front-line ops.


• Negotiate scope conversations honestly inside a fixed-price, regulated, audit-trailed environment.


• Stand alongside the customer when their regulator visits, ensuring deployment evidence is complete, accurate, and defensible.

Commercial and Business Growth:

• Shape Statements of Work, commercial proposals, scope assessments, and change control for high-value engagements.


• Own financial performance, including revenue, margin, cost to complete, forecasting, and risk/commercial exposure.


• Identify opportunities for renewals, expansions, and adjacent service offerings.


• Partner with Customer Success and account teams to support growth forecasting and long-term account planning.

You may be a good fit if you have:

• At least 8 years' technical project management experience.


• Demonstrated ownership of at least 3 complex enterprise software or AI deployments end-to-end.


• Strong technical fluency in modern AI and data systems.


• Proven success managing senior stakeholders in regulated environments.


• Excellent written and verbal communication in English.


• Track record of running programs with discipline.


• Readiness to travel for customer engagements.

Strong candidates may also have:

• Prior career foundation in technology development or deployment role before transitioning into project management.


• Direct financial services delivery experience.


• Hands-on exposure to SensaAI, NetReveal, or competing financial crime platforms.


• Working knowledge of the regulatory landscape.


• Experience deploying AI or analytics into bank production environments.


• PMP, Prince2, SAFe, CAMS, or equivalent certification.


• Experience working across global delivery teams.


• Fluency in at least one additional language: German, French, Italian, or Spanish.
