3637 Product Manager Aml Screening jobs near me

Innovative Systems, a worldwide leader of hi-tech data management, AML compliance, and Payment Screening solutions, is looking for a high-achieving detail-oriented AML Screening Product Manager (reporting to the Head of Product) who wants to be with an organization where they can make a REAL IMPACT! Innovative provides just the right mix of opportunities.

What’s the challenge?

An AML Screening Product Manager faces the ongoing challenge of balancing speed, accuracy, and compliance in an environment where regulatory expectations evolve faster than product release cycles. Delivering real‑time decisioning while minimizing false‑positive rates becomes a core tension for compliance teams, especially as organizations demand faster results, agentic reviews, and a seamless user experience. Ensuring the product remains technically resilient while integrating with diverse third‑party data providers, and partner tools designed to enhance the scope of the results, adds operational and architectural complexity that must be managed on an ongoing basis.

At the same time, the product manager must understand and operationalize compliance requirements that differ across jurisdictions, industries, and payment types. This means translating regulatory mandates into actionable product functionalities while addressing customer pain points such as workflow bottlenecks, alert fatigue, screening latency, and evolving risk typologies. Engaging customers is both essential and challenging: they expect ease of use, rapid enhancements, and high configurability to match their internal policies. The PM must continuously prioritize features that minimize customer risk while ensuring the product remains competitive, scalable, and adaptable to new technologies and functionality in the market.

How will I make an impact?

You’ll help define and advance Innovative’s customer sanctions, watchlist, and payment screening capabilities in the global market, partnering closely with customers, engineers, and industry experts.
