    Job Description

    This position is an individual contributor role residing within the Bank's Second Line of Defense Risk Management and Compliance organization.

The overall MRM program is designed to provide governance and control to manage financial models and associated risks that may impact the company, including financial, liquidity, market, operational, reputational, strategic, and other risks as appropriate. Validation Analysts within MRM provide independent validation of models that the Bank relies on for making financial decisions. A robust and comprehensive model validation comprises steps that independently challenge a model's conceptual framework and methodology, data used in the model, implementation process, as well as model usage and performance. The validation process also identifies corrective actions to ensure timely remediation of model risk.

    The individual in this position works with Model Owners and Developers to validate models related to the Bank's Financial Crimes (Anti-Money Laundering, Economic Sanctions/OFAC) and Compliance (Fair Lending) programs, adhering to OCC Regulatory Guidance and USB's Model Risk Management Policy and Standards.
