About This Opportunity

Our talent team is representing a confidential fintech organization that is seeking a Financial Crime Analyst to join their compliance operations.

The position is available in the USA with remote Get A Job.aiibility.

Responsibilities

In this role, you will support the financial crime program through hands-on compliance work:

• Review and disposition transaction monitoring alerts, applying BSA/AML typologies to distinguish suspicious activity from false positives
• Draft clear, well-supported case narratives and escalate higher-risk activity for supervisory review
• Contribute to UAR/SAR filing support under the direction of senior compliance team members
• Conduct KYC reviews for new and existing customers, verifying identity documents and assessing risk profiles
• Identify customers that warrant enhanced due diligence (EDD) and flag appropriately for escalation
• Maintain accurate and complete records in the case management system
• Assist with periodic quality assurance and file reviews
• Help identify patterns or process gaps that could improve detection coverage or review efficiency
• Participate in team training and stay current on evolving AML typologies and regulatory guidance

What We're Looking For

Required qualifications:

• 1–2 years of experience in BSA/AML compliance, fraud operations, or a related financial crimes role (internship or co-op experience will be considered)
• Working knowledge of KYC/CDD requirements and BSA obligations
• Strong written communication skills — you can explain why something is or isn't suspicious in plain language
• High attention to detail and comfort working through ambiguous or incomplete information
• Ability to manage a case queue and prioritize effectively
• Growth mindset and self-driven approach to work

Preferred experience:

• Familiarity with transaction monitoring platforms such as Sardine, Unit21, Actimize, or similar tools
• Prior exposure to fintech, payments, or banking-as-a-service compliance environments
• CAMS or other AML certification in progress or completed
