Product Manager, CIAM Authentication & Identity Platform Delivery Lead

The Product Manager for Customer Identity & Authentication will lead delivery of Citizens’ next-generation centralized CIAM platform, a core pillar of the bank’s Reimagine the Bank strategy. This role is responsible for transforming fragmented authentication and identity verification capabilities into a unified, risk-based, and intelligence-driven platform that reduces customer friction while strengthening fraud defenses. This leader will drive the transition from siloed OTP and point solutions to a modern, adaptive authentication ecosystem—leveraging passkeys, biometrics, device intelligence, and AI-powered risk signals. The role will partner across Security, Fraud, Digital, Technology, and Operations to position identity not just as a control point, but as a driver of customer growth, trust, and conversion. The role requires balancing near-term delivery (e.g., channel integration, OTP consolidation, fraud controls) with long-term platform transformation, ensuring measurable business impact across customer experience, fraud loss reduction, and operational efficiency. This role includes team leadership responsibilities and reports to the CIAM Product Leader.
