Why join us?

The Compliance Global Function within HSBC is responsible for implementing effective global standards to combat financial crime, including: Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Sanctions and Anti-Bribery & Corruption (AB&C) compliance. The Financial Crime Threat Mitigation (FCTM) department within Compliance includes investigators, intelligence analysts, data scientists, subject matter experts, liaison specialists and innovation specialists. FCTM is responsible for identifying, analysing & investigating financial crime risk, and ensuring that these risks are properly mitigated within HSBC. The current FCTM systems architecture is based on a large on-premise Hadoop platform (aka Compliance Data Lake), which supports a large number of data processing and analytics workloads.

HSBC IT has an ambitious strategy to move all on-premise analytics workloads onto Google Cloud (GCP). At the same time, Compliance has started a large business programme (ILFCRM or Intelligence Lead Financial Crime Risk Management) to radically improve HSBC's financial crime risk systems & processes. One of the objectives of ILFCRM is to build a new GCP application (called DRA or Dynamic Risk Assessment) that uses advanced machine learning techniques. DRA will provide (a) data scientists a secure environment for developing & training new ML models, and (b) an execution environment for running approved ML models in a controlled operational environment, and (c) a web based application serving analytics/ML model outputs to HSBC Global Investigator team to proceed fraud case investigations. DRA currently runs a batch-based process, but in the longer term DRA will shift to a more flexible event-driven architecture (data streaming, etc.). At the meantime, since DRA is global faced, the web application the team builds there need to serve data of multiple markets to investigators at multiple regions.

The Opportunity:

This includes the ILFCRM (Intelligence Led Financial Crime Risk Management) programme, for which the core delivery is the new DRA (Dynamic Risk Assessment) application. This programme seeks to improve HSBC抯 financial crime risk management, by moving away from a traditional rule-based approach, to using machine learning and advanced analytics to identify more financial crime, with less noise, more quickly.
This role is in the DRA IT team, and will support the DRA system implementation & roll-out.
