- Audit & Regulatory Liaison: Partner with Internal Audit, Internal Controls, and Compliance to facilitate the timely resolution of audit and regulatory requests.
- Affirm Bank: Work for the internal Bank team to support the build out of the Bank Model Risk Management function. Support the model validation requirements for Bank owned models.
