Screen against sanctions, PEP, and watchlists (OFAC and the rest), and clear or escalate hits.
Work alongside our payments and operations teams on anything that touches onboarding, funding, or payout risk.
Help keep our AML program, policies, and procedures current as the business and the regulatory picture change.
Support exam and audit readiness, including recordkeeping that stands up to regulator and outside-counsel scrutiny.
Required Qualifications
2+ years in KYC, AML, CDD/EDD, or financial crimes work.
A working knowledge of BSA/AML obligations, sanctions screening, and SAR processes.
Sharp judgment. You can tell the difference between a real red flag and noise, and you know when to escalate.
Comfort operating in a fast-moving environment
Preferred Qualifications
Experience at a brokerage, FCM, IB, or other registered firm. You ve seen how compliance works inside a regulated trading business, not just a bank.
Series 3 (National Commodity Futures Examination). Series 30 or other NFA-related registrations are welcome too.

Familiarity with NFA and CFTC requirements.
Experience with screening/onboarding tooling, including SumSub
