- Lead KYC/KYB/CDD processes: Standardize and optimize data collection and monitoring, ensuring quality and compliance.
- Monitor and investigate transactions: Use advanced data tools (SQL, Python, ML-based detection) to detect anomalies and file SARs as required.
- Assess and mitigate risk: Evaluate compliance risks in new products and services, ensuring alignment with U.S. and global regulations.
- Engage with regulators: Manage reports, audits, and communications with regulatory authorities.
- Educate and empower teams: Deliver training on AML/CTF awareness, new regulations, and best practices.

What You Need To Succeed:
- Proven experience in AML/CTF operations (KYC, CDD, EDD, monitoring) in fintech, payments, or banking.
- Strong data analysis skills (SQL, Python, or similar).
- Excellent problem-solving and analytical mindset, with attention to detail under pressure.
- Familiarity with AI tools and prompt engineering for compliance applications.
- Solid understanding of U.S. regulatory frameworks (BSA, Patriot Act, FinCEN, OFAC).
