Compliance Technology Program Lead
Block
Role Description Block is seeking a Compliance Technology Program Lead to ensure our Machine Learning and Heuristic detection models — and the data infrastructure that feeds them — are fit for purpose, for our fiat and virtual currency products. This role sits at the intersection of compliance, machine learning, and AI tooling: you will use modern intelligence tools, including Claude and other LLM-based agents, to automate significant portions of oversight, monitoring, and documentation work — turning a traditionally manual, documentation-heavy function into a scalable, defensible program. You will partner with Machine Learning, Engineering and BSA/AML Policy Teams to provide end-to-end technical oversight, effective challenge and ongoing monitoring throughout the model development lifecycle. Responsibilities - Build with Modern AI Tools - Use AI agents (Claude and similar LLM-based tools) to build automation that scales oversight, monitoring, and documentation work — including drafting requirements, exam-ready documentation, data quality monitoring and ongoing model performance reporting. - Design human-in-the-loop checkpoints so that automated outputs remain defensible to regulators and independent monitors. - Establish and maintain model and data governance frameworks aligned with SR 11-7 and OCC 2011-12, including a revamped Detection Requirements Document (DRD) process. - Lead Ongoing Monitoring - Lead the design and development of real-time dashboards to monitor model health, including input data monitoring and ongoing model performance. - Set standards for threshold tuning and ongoing Below the Line (BTL) testing controls. - Establish frameworks and triggers for identifying when model performance is degrading and requires tuning or deprecation. - Provide End-to-End Oversight of Model Development - Oversee Transaction Monitoring models, including heuristic and rules-based detection logic, threshold settings, and the data pipelines that feed alerts. - Oversee blockchain analytics and screening tools (TRM, Chainalysis), with attention to typology coverage, alert quality, and integration with downstream investigations. - Oversee Sanctions Screening models (LexisNexis), including list management, fuzzy-match tuning, and false-positive reduction. - Oversee Customer Risk Scoring models, including segmentation logic, periodic recalibration, and effective challenge of risk drivers. - Oversee the design and validation of AI-driven case resolution — LLM-based and ML-based models that triage, enrich, or disposition alerts. Qualifications - 7+ years of experience in compliance technology at regulated financial institutions, or as a consultant working with FIs. - Hands-on experience building with modern AI tools — including Claude, GPT, or comparable LLM-based agents. - Experience with both Machine Learning and Heuristic models across Transaction Monitoring, Sanctions Screening, and Customer Risk Scoring. - Experience with input data quality monitoring. - Experience with model performance monitoring. - Experience conducting AML model validations aligned with SR 11-7 and OCC 2011-12. - Experience responding to examinations and consent orders, and working with regulators and independent monitors. - Experience with virtual currencies, including the unique transaction monitoring and sanctions screening considerations they present. - Familiarity with blockchain analytics and screening tools such as Chainalysis and TRM Labs. - A track record of driving cross-functional initiatives. - A working understanding of regulated financial services and corresponding compliance obligations. - Familiarity with statistical concepts related to machine learning. - Expertise in data analytics and visualization.
