FinCrime AnalystDepartment: Legal & Compliance
Employment Type: Full Time
Location: New York
DescriptionWe are seeking a highly experienced and analytical FinCrimes Analyst to strengthen our Financial Intelligence Unit with investigative capacity in the United States.
As we scale our transaction monitoring program and expand into new markets, you will serve as a lead investigator for our most complex casework - handling escalations, high-risk typologies, and matters with potential regulatory or law-enforcement exposure.
This role is critical for protecting our customers and platform, requiring a blend of deep investigative expertise, sound judgment on high-impact decisions, and the ability to bridge the gap between frontline alert operations and US regulatory expectations.
What You'll Be Doing- Own escalated and complex cases end-to-end: intake, investigation, disposition, and documentation to evidence standards
- Investigate fiat and on-chain activity across our monitoring stack
- Draft and manage customer RFIs; recommend and execute actions (clear, freeze, block, offboard) per the escalation matrix
- Prepare SAR/STR-ready narratives and evidence packs, and support suspicious activity reporting workflows
- Support law enforcement requests and jurisdiction-sensitive matters requiring US-based handling
What You'll Bring- 4+ years in AML, fraud, transaction monitoring, or financial crimes investigations, including experience with complex or escalated casework (fintech or crypto strongly preferred)
- Must be based in and authorized to work in the United States
- Deep working knowledge of AML/CFT typologies
- Strong understanding of the US regulatory landscape: BSA/AML, OFAC sanctions, and SAR filing expectations
- Hands-on experience with monitoring and blockchain analytics tools such as Sardine, Elliptic or others
- Excellent investigative writing - able to produce audit-ready case narratives and evidence packs
