You work with internal stakeholders in a dynamic and innovative landscape. TM Coverage & Scenario Experts work in multidisciplinary squads with highly talented and motivated colleagues using Scrum Agile methodology. Your ability to translate ML/TF risks to functional TM rule requirements and simplify complex issues plays a pivotal role in the development of TM detection rules. As part of this job, you handle complex TM issues either independently or in collaboration, gather and analyze data to substantiate your insights and advice, engage with domestic and international stakeholders, and collaborate across the FEC organization.
