They must also be able to communicate confidently and constructively with senior stakeholders, including MLROs, to ensure monitoring rules are workable in practice and effective operationally.

What You’ll Do

• Build supporting data tables and rule components that make the monitoring framework scalable, clear, and reliable.
• Review alerts generated by monitoring rules to adjust thresholds, cut down false positives, and improve detection quality.
• Work closely with MLROs, compliance teams, and risk stakeholders to convert business and regulatory needs into practical monitoring logic.
• Offer clear, tactful pushback and influence senior stakeholders when suggested rules or ideas are not realistic or would weaken effectiveness.
• Write and maintain documentation covering rule logic, data inputs, and tuning approaches so the work is audit-ready and easy for the team to understand.
• Keep monitoring rule performance under review and update rule sets as risks evolve or regulations change.
• Handle ad hoc compliance analysis and reporting through advanced SQL queries.

Requirements

• A bachelor’s degree, or equivalent practical experience, in Computer Science, Information Systems, Finance, or a similar field.
• Advanced SQL skills, including the ability to build complex queries and work with data structures.
• Good working knowledge of AML rules, transaction monitoring principles, and compliance requirements in crypto or financial services.
• Practical experience building and tuning rule-based transaction monitoring systems with a focus on precision and operational efficiency.
• The confidence and diplomacy to challenge and persuade senior compliance stakeholders, including MLROs, when needed.
• Strong attention to detail, along with solid analytical, problem-solving, and communication abilities.
• Background in fintech, crypto compliance, or financial services compliance would be a strong plus.
