Position Overview

We work together each day to foster an inclusive workplace culture where all of our employees feel respected, valued and have an opportunity to contribute to the company’s success.

We are seeking an experienced individual contributor to support FGO Regulatory Reporting Transaction Testing, with a primary focus on establishing and advancing a new Conformance Testing program.
This role will help build the conformance testing capability from the ground up, partnering across Regulatory Reporting, FGO, Technology, and Data teams to develop a scalable, data-driven testing framework. The position will leverage existing automation capabilities, AI-enabled tools, and targeted custom solutions to expand testing coverage, improve efficiency, and strengthen assurance over regulatory reporting processes.
The successful candidate will bring a strong combination of regulatory reporting expertise, advanced data analysis, business analysis, and technical capabilities. The role requires the ability to understand complex financial data environments, trace data from source systems through transformations and reporting processes, evaluate reporting logic and calculations, and determine whether regulatory reporting outputs conform to established regulatory and business requirements.
The initial program scope encompasses 7 regulatory reports with 77 separate schedules and major data collections, requiring a testing approach that is scalable, repeatable, and highly automated.

Key Responsibilities
• Help design, build, and implement a comprehensive Regulatory Reporting Conformance Testing framework, including testing methodologies, standards, procedures, and documentation.
• Analyze complex regulatory reporting requirements, instructions, and interpretations and translate them into clearly defined testing requirements, business rules, and data validation criteria.
• Perform detailed data analysis, data mapping, data lineage, and data transformation reviews to trace reported information from source systems through intermediate data environments and ultimately to regulatory reporting outputs.
• Assess whether data elements, transformations, mappings, calculations, and reporting logic conform to applicable regulatory instructions and defined business requirements.
• Evaluate reporting system logic, calculations, configurations, and code to identify defects, inconsistencies, control weaknesses, or other conditions that could affect reporting accuracy or completeness.
• Develop and execute data-driven testing procedures across large and complex financial datasets using SQL and other analytical technologies.
• Leverage enterprise automation platforms, AI-enabled tools, and targeted custom solutions to automate testing procedures and increase testing coverage, repeatability, and efficiency.
• Design testing approaches capable of evaluating large populations rather than relying exclusively on traditional sample-based testing.
• Develop reusable testing components, data queries, validation routines, and analytical procedures that can be applied across regulatory reports and reporting schedules.
• Identify and investigate data quality issues, mapping discrepancies, transformation defects, reporting logic issues, and unexpected data patterns.
• Perform root-cause analysis of identified exceptions and collaborate with business, technology, reporting, and data partners to understand upstream and downstream implications.
• Evaluate the effectiveness of data governance, data quality, and regulatory reporting controls supporting the reporting lifecycle.
• Clearly document testing procedures, data analyses, assumptions, results, exceptions, and conclusions in accordance with established testing standards.
• Communicate complex technical and regulatory issues to both technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
• Partner closely with Regulatory Reporting, FGO, Technology, Data, and other stakeholders to continuously enhance conformance testing capabilities and coverage.
