Job Description:
  • Lead end-to-end technology delivery for Financial Crimes Investigations capabilities, spanning platform implementation, data integration, workflow automation, testing, release readiness, production rollout, and transition to business-as-usual operations.

  • Establish and manage connectivity, data pipelines, interfaces, and secure integration patterns between TD environments, vendor environments, and internal data and analytics platforms.
  • Ensure adherence to technology, security, privacy, resiliency, data governance, architecture, and regulatory control standards, including confirming that vendor commitments are understood, tracked, evidenced, and met.
  • Maintain clear alignment with FCRM leadership, technology partners, and vendor stakeholders on roadmap priorities, delivery sequencing, dependencies, and implementation schedules.
  • Provide senior-level delivery accountability across technology and data components, proactively managing risks, issues, dependencies, funding considerations, and delivery trade-offs.
  • Oversee vendor relationship management for technology delivery, including performance management, issue resolution, delivery quality, escalation management, and alignment to contractual and operational commitments.

  • Prepare executive-ready communications, status updates, decision materials, and escalations that clearly articulate progress, risks, mitigations, impacts, and required leadership actions.
  • Champion a disciplined risk management culture by ensuring risks are surfaced early, control obligations are embedded into delivery, and solutions are designed for sustainable operation in a regulated banking environment.
  • Operate as a strategic technology leader who can translate financial crimes risk objectives into executable technology roadmaps and delivery outcomes.
  • Influence senior stakeholders across business, risk, technology, infrastructure, data, and vendor organizations without relying solely on direct authority.
  • Bring structure and clarity to complex, cross-functional delivery environments with multiple interdependencies, regulatory expectations, and competing priorities.

  • Knowledge of anti-money laundering, financial crimes compliance, fraud, sanctions, investigations, regulatory reporting, or a comparable risk domain; investigations-focused experience is preferred.
  • Strong understanding of banking data relevant to financial crimes investigations, including customer, account, transaction, alert, case, counterparty, and regulatory reporting data.
  • Experience with enterprise integrations, data pipelines, APIs, batch processing, online system integrations, data transformation, and historical data migration.
  • Experience delivering mission-critical platforms with regulatory, audit, resiliency, privacy, security, and data governance requirements.
  • Familiarity with AI, machine learning, automation, and advanced analytics use cases that improve analytical, operational, or investigative workflows, with an appreciation for governance, explainability, and responsible adoption.
