Senior Manager – Product Owner, Agentic Investigation Capability

What is the opportunity?

As the Senior Manager – Product Owner, Agentic Investigation Capability, you will own the business-product strategy, roadmap and outcomes for an emerging agentic capability that supports financial-crime investigation (automating evidence gathering, enrichment, analysis and drafting). You will shape how this capability operates under governed configuration and always in support of, and subordinate to, accountable human decision-making. They must combine strong product ownership with a deep appreciation for the governance, risk and regulatory realities of financial crime, working across FIU, Borealis, AML IT, FCAML Data Management and model-risk partners to deliver a capability that strengthens investigative outcomes without ever replacing human judgment.

What will you do?

• Define the product vision, roadmap and prioritized backlog for the agentic capability, sequencing automated capabilities against investigative risk and value.
• Own the business definition of each automated capability - what it is for, what it consumes, what it produces, and the conditions under which it defers to a human.
• Ensure automated activity runs against governed configuration under proper change control, and that all activity is captured in the investigative system of record.
• Ensure automated output meets the quality and evidence standards required for regulatory defensibility.
• Define the acceptance criteria and measures of capability quality and investigator enablement that guide continuous improvement, and act as the empowered decision-maker on what is released.
• Maintain a clear boundary between automated support and accountable human judgment and feed outputs into established feedback loops.
• Partner with investigators and their leadership across all financial-crime functions to ground the capability in real investigative needs and drive adoption.
• Coordinate with Investigation Platform and Investigative Analytics product owners so the capability composes with existing tools rather than duplicating them.
• Partner with EMRM, AML IT, Borealis and Data Management on delivery, validation and ongoing monitoring.

What do you need to succeed?

Must-have

• Bachelor's degree in business, technology, finance or a related field.

• Experience delivering capabilities in a governed, regulated environment, including working with control, risk and assurance functions.
• Strong stakeholder management and the ability to translate complex investigative needs into a clear product roadmap.
• Comfort with ambiguity and changing priorities, with strong storytelling, influence and technical literacy (deep technical expertise not required).

Nice-to-have

• Experience with AI/ML or agentic/automation technologies and their governance.
• Familiarity with Model Risk Management processes (validation, monitoring, revalidation).
• Relevant certifications (e.g., CAMS, product/agile certifications).
• Experience working with auditors, regulators and second/third-line functions.
