Wells Fargo is seeking Product Design Lead - BSA/AML Data & Experience Design
Shared Services Operations (SSO) is seeking a Product Design Lead to transform how teams experience and manage BSA/AML and client reference data workflows. This role focuses on the intersection of data, design, and compliance, creating human-centered solutions that bring clarity and efficiency to complex regulatory processes.
The ideal candidate combines strong design acumen with a deep understanding of operational systems and the data that powers them-helping SSO deliver intelligent, scalable, and compliant customer data experiences.
A hands-on designer who bridges data and experience. You think in systems, not screens - understanding that well-designed data journeys are the foundation of strong compliance. In SSO, you'll help reimagine how Bank Secrecy Act / Anti-Money Laundering (BSA/AML) and client data operations work: more unified, transparent, and efficient by design
In this role, you will:
- Partner with Product, Data, and Operations teams to align user experience with data quality, lineage, and governance standards across client reference data domains.
- Apply design thinking to map end-to-end compliance journeys-identifying pain points, redundancies, and automation opportunities.
- Simplify how users interact with Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven and data-enabled platforms, ensuring transparency, explainability, and confidence in decision-making.
- Experience in blue printing and systems architecture design.
- Contribute to a unified experience framework and design system that supports consistency across all SSO compliance and data products.
- Embed agile design practices into product delivery-prototyping, testing, and refining based on real user feedback.
- Develop measurable outcomes linking design improvements to operational gains in accuracy, cycle time, and data integrity.
- Collaborate with data stewards, modelers, and compliance partners to translate regulatory and data requirements into practical, user-centered design solutions.
- Design intuitive tools and workflows that enhance BSA/AML functions such as onboarding, Know Your Customer (KYC), Customer Due Diligence (CDD), and transaction monitoring.
- 5+ years of Product Management, product development, strategic planning, process management, change delivery experience, or equivalent demonstrated through one or a combination of the following: work experience, training, military experience, education
- 5 years of experience in product, User design (UX), or service design, ideally within financial services or compliance environments.
- Strong grounding in design thinking, journey mapping, and agile delivery.
- Ability to interpret data structures, operational pain points, and user behaviors to inform design choices.
- Proven ability to design complex data workflows and internal enterprise tools.
- Familiarity with Bank Secrecy Act / Anti-Money Laundering (BSA/AML), Know Your Customer (KYC), and client reference data processes and systems.
- Excellent communication skills with both technical and business audiences.
