Our Ethos
We believe in an open and flat structure. You will be able to grow into the role that most aligns with your goals. Our team members at all levels have the freedom to explore ideas and impact the roadmap and vision of our company.
About the Role
We are looking for a sharp, motivated Compliance Analyst to join our Compliance team with a primary focus on transaction monitoring, alert review, and case investigation. This is a do-er role - you will be working the alert queue daily, conducting investigations, making SAR recommendations, and contributing directly to the quality and effectiveness of our TM program. You are expected to think critically, document thoroughly, and move with urgency without cutting corners.
This is not a policy or advisory role. You are in the work every day - reviewing alerts, building cases, and helping ensure that suspicious activity is identified, investigated, and reported accurately and on time.
What You Will Do
-
Review and disposition transaction monitoring alerts and KYC/KYB onboarding applications end to end - including customer profile review, document verification, beneficial ownership analysis, sanctions and PEP screening, adverse media assessment, and transactional activity analysis
-
Conduct enhanced due diligence on High Risk applicants - including source of funds and source of wealth assessment, business model review, and full beneficial ownership chain documentation
-
Make well-reasoned SAR recommendations - clearly articulating why activity is or is not suspicious and documenting your analysis in a manner that is complete and defensible to a regulator
-
Draft SAR narratives that meet FinCEN quality standards
-
Send RFIs to customers or partners where additional information is needed to resolve an alert or application and follow through to receipt and documentation of the response
