This is a player-coach role — combining technical leadership with direct execution — focused on modernizing our BI infrastructure, decommissioning legacy assets, and building a new suite of automated, scalable, insight-driven dashboards and workflows. Reporting to the Vice President of Financial Crimes Analytics, this individual will manage and mentor a team of onshore and offshore BI professionals, drive cloud migration initiatives, ensure data governance and quality, and present actionable insights to support Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Fraud, Know Your Customer (KYC), and regulatory decision-making. The role requires both strategic vision and hands-on development expertise. Essential duties include developing and executing long-term BI and enterprise data architecture strategies, leading modernization of reporting and analytics infrastructure, designing automated dashboards and data pipelines using Tableau, Alteryx, and AWS technologies such as Redshift and Glue, managing distributed BI teams, collaborating with stakeholders to translate requirements into data-driven insights, establishing data governance frameworks, and serving as a hands-on contributor developing SQL and Python queries and automating workflows. Knowledge required includes financial crime risks, BI platforms, relational and cloud databases, financial crimes regulatory requirements, data governance, agile methodologies, and organizational development. Skills include leading distributed teams, executing data-driven strategies, using SQL, Pandas, Alteryx, AWS, and Tableau Prep, building performance-optimized dashboards, and communicating complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders. Ability to balance strategic leadership with technical contribution, articulate analytics strategy, translate business needs into data solutions, identify capability gaps, lead cross-functional projects, anticipate challenges in regulatory environments, and inspire a culture of innovation and continuous improvement. Education requires a bachelor's degree in relevant fields, with a master’s or MBA preferred. Experience requires 10+ years in BI roles, 5+ years in leadership managing BI teams including offshore resources, and proven success in BI modernization and cloud migration, preferably in financial services supporting Financial Crimes, AML, or Fraud. Certifications such as Tableau, Alteryx, AWS, or CAMS are a plus but not required. Travel is required about 10% of the time. Workstyle is hybrid. Raymond James emphasizes a people-first culture and equal opportunity employment.
