  • 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

  • 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
