Job DescriptionWhat is the opportunity? RBC Insurance is deploying modern, AI- and data-driven fraud detection across its insurance business, integrating enterprise RBC fraud capabilities with insurance-specific detection and investigation built in-house on our cloud data platform.
We're hiring a Senior Program Manager, Fraud Intelligence Solution. You'll own the plan, the operating rhythm, and the outcomes: detection running in production, used daily by investigators, governed to regulatory standards, improving quarter over quarter.
This is a technical delivery role. The right candidate has built data and AI capabilities, data platforms, ML scoring pipelines, model deployment, inside a regulated financial institution, and can review code, prototype with AI tools, and challenge architecture and modeling decisions credibly. Fraud is the application domain, not the required expertise. This is not a general program management role: data and AI fluency is a gate, not a nice-to-have.
What will you do?- Lead delivery. Run several delivery teams and a program function. Dated plans, firm checkpoints, quarterly quality targets. Raise alerts and replan when dates slip.
- Ship into production. Detection running, investigators using it daily, regulatory requirements met. Build the data foundation for sophisticated detection over time.
- Navigate complexity. Drive approvals ahead of the critical path, manage enterprise-partner dependencies, coordinate roadmaps, handle escalations.
- Make trade-offs. Arbitrate scope and quality, balancing technical complexity against business value. The program builds on existing platforms, judge when to reuse, when to buy, when building is justified.
- Stay technical. Review architecture and scoring designs, read code, prototype with gen AI, challenge modeling and platform decisions.
- Partner with the business. Work with claims specialists and investigators, translate their expertise into requirements, prioritize what gets built.
- Communicate upward. Represent status, risks, and decisions to senior executives in business terms.
What will you need to succeed?Must have - Deep working knowledge of cloud data platforms, data engineering pipelines, and ML scoring systems (feature pipelines, supervised models, deployment and monitoring). You can evaluate a scoring architecture and challenge modeling trade-offs. Hands-on SQL/Python within the last 5 years, or equivalent technical depth demonstrable in review.
- 8+ years in data platform, ML, or AI product delivery (not general program management), including 4+ years leading multi-team delivery (10+ people).
- Demonstrated delivery in a regulated financial institution. You've personally navigated architecture governance, model risk management, and security review, and can speak concretely about planning around them.
- Experience with mixed-mode delivery: hard-milestone workstreams alongside iterative capability development, in an organization that is not natively agile.
- Organizational acumen with strong central functions (data science, architecture, risk). You influence without deferring on substance or escalating every disagreement.
- Experience managing dependencies on platform teams or external partners whose roadmap you do not control.
Nice to have- Snowflake, dbt, graph data platforms, or document AI.
- OSFI Guideline E-23 or equivalent model risk frameworks (SR 11-7, ECB TRIM).
- Standing up or scaling an investigation or operations function alongside a technology build.
- Insurance domain knowledge, or fraud/financial crime/investigation experience in any financial services context.
