  • Strong fluency with AI and workflow automation tools, with demonstrated experience designing, deploying, and driving adoption of AI solutions within Compliance or RegTech workflows.
  • Demonstrated hands-on experience designing and deploying AI-powered or automated workflows in a production environment used by others, not just experimentation.
  • Deep working knowledge of anti-financial crime (e.g. AML/CFT, sanctions, transaction monitoring systems), capital markets compliance (e.g. sales and trading, market conduct, transaction surveillance, conflicts management) and data privacy frameworks.
  • Systems thinker with a strong implementation mindset -- able to move from discovery to design to build to deployment to optimization without relying on external consultants.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills. Able to translate technical automation solutions and complex analytical results for Compliance professionals, senior leadership, and regulators who are not technical.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with case management platforms (Actimize, NICE Actimize, Quantexa, or equivalent) and their API or integration architecture.
  • Experience using AI for document analysis, transaction narrative generation, or regulatory report drafting in a financial crime or compliance context.
  • Familiarity with regulatory examination readiness: documentation standards, model risk governance, and audit trail requirements for AI-assisted compliance decisions.
  • Experience with spreadsheet automation (Google Apps Script or equivalent) and advanced proficiency in Excel and Google Sheets for compliance analytics.
  • Python programming skills for transaction data analysis, risk scoring models, or compliance pipeline automation.
  • Background in compliance technology platform administration: AML systems, KYC platforms, case management, markets business conduct or sanctions screening tools.
  • Prior experience standing up or operating a RegTech, compliance automation, or financial crime analytics function.
  • Experience in crypto, fintech, payments, capital markets or a regulated financial institution operating across multiple jurisdictions with exposure to FinCEN, SEC, FCA, MAS, or equivalent regulatory bodies.
