  • Oversee AML and KYC programs. Continuously refine and improve our customer onboarding, transaction monitoring, and investigative processes.

  • Manage regulatory reporting. Ensure timely and accurate filing of SARs, CTRs, and other required submissions to FinCEN and state regulators.

  • Coordinate audits and exams. Serve as the point of contact for external auditors, regulators, and banking partners.

  • Implement risk frameworks. Identify and assess compliance risks, develop mitigation strategies, and oversee testing and incident response plans.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally. Work with product, engineering, legal, and operations to embed compliance considerations into business decisions.

  • Drive process efficiency. Streamline compliance workflows to enable scale while maintaining a strong control environment.

  • Educate and train. Lead compliance onboarding for new hires and manage ongoing company-wide training.

Requirements

  • Experience leading AML and KYC compliance programs at a fintech, crypto, or financial services firm

  • Deep knowledge of BSA/AML, FinCEN guidance, and U.S. state money transmission laws

  • Experience interfacing with regulators and managing exams or audits

  • Strong process and risk management skills, with a bias toward operationalizing compliance

  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and scaling programs up

  • Passionate about crypto and fluent in the basics of how decentralized technologies work
