She briefly worked in the private sector between 2008-2009, but returned to the Federal Reserve in January 2009 as Director for Portfolio Analytics. In this position, Remache was part of a team responsible for buying $1.25 trillion of mortgage-backed securities (MBS) as part of the Federal Reserve's MBS purchase program during the 2007-2009 financial crisis.

Education 
Remache obtained her bachelor's degree in Mathematics and Economics at Boston University. Remache then went on to complete a master's in Economics at Boston University as well. She holds a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) certification.

Career 
Remache joined the Federal Reserve of New York in 2000 as a trader and analyst. In January 2008 she was promoted to Markets Officer but shortly after, in March 2008, she took a job at Robeco-Sage Capital Management as Vice President. After nine months at Robeco-Sage, Richard Dzina, senior VP at the New York Fed, offered her a new position at the Bank. Remache accepted the position and returned to the Bank in January 2009, where she was responsible for developing and implementing the Federal Reserve's MBS purchase program. In January 2010 she was promoted to Assistant Vice President of the Markets Groups. In February 2015 she was promoted to her current position of Senior Vice President in the Markets Group. In 2011, Remache appeared on The Invention of Money episode of NPR's This American Life, where she discussed how, starting in November 2008, her Domestic Capital Markets team at the Federal Reserve injected $1.35 trillion dollars into the economy by purchasing mortgage-backed securities.

In July 2015 she presented on monetary policy at the National Association for Business Economics (NABE) 16th annual Economic Measurement Conference in Washington D.C. In May 2016 she organised a conference at Columbia University on the topic of the implementation of monetary policy post-2008 financial crisis.

Select research  
Remache's research primarily focuses on the Federal Reserve's large-scale asset purchases (otherwise known as quantitative easing) during the 2007-2009 financial crisis. She has published two papers on the topic with Joseph Gagnon, Matthew Raskin and Brian Sack: "The financial market effects of the Federal Reserve’s large-scale asset purchases" and "Large-scale asset purchases by the Federal Reserve: did they work?" Remache published an article for Medium in 2017 along with Antoine Martin, Senior VP and Head of Money and Payments at the Federal Reserve. She has contributed to the Federal Reserve's Liberty Street Economics blog on several occasions on the topic of System Open Market Account (SOMA).
