• Requirements Gathering and Analysis: Collaborate with compliance, legal, and risk teams to gather detailed requirements for reporting and documentation needed to meet regulatory obligations
• Report Design and Development: Define and prioritize reporting features, including performance metrics, explainability, audit trails, and bias monitoring, ensuring they meet client and regulatory needs
• Data Integrity and Validation: Ensure the accuracy and completeness of data used for reporting, working closely with data engineering and data science teams to establish robust data quality controls
• Client Collaboration: Engage with clients to understand their reporting needs and provide guidance on interpreting and utilizing model governance reports
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with engineering, data science, and UX/UI teams to deliver high-quality, user-friendly reporting solutions
• Documentation and Training: Create comprehensive documentation and training materials for internal and external stakeholders on model governance reporting
• Performance Monitoring and Optimization: Continuously monitor the performance of reporting features and identify opportunities for improvement and automation
• Risk Management: Identify and mitigate potential risks associated with model governance and reporting, ensuring compliance with internal and external policies
• Staying Current: Keep abreast of the latest advancements in AI/ML model governance and regulatory changes impacting customer screening
