We proudly serve more than 4 million parents and kids, with in-app tools for sending money, setting savings goals, monitoring balances, managing chores, automating allowance and investing.

But that’s not all that we do. Here at Greenlight, we are on a mission to support parents and help every kid grow up to be financially healthy and happy. It’s no small task, but it’s the reason we leap out of bed every morning to come to work. Because creating a better, brighter future for kids depends on it.

We are looking for a detail-oriented, curious, and strategic AML Compliance Analyst to join our compliance team at Greenlight. This person will play a key role in oversight and execution of all daily reviews related to KYC/CIP and ensure adherence to regulatory requirements inclusive of Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and Sanctions.

    • Investigate and clear OFAC, PEP, and Adverse Media alerts.
    • Investigate transaction monitoring alerts and other internal AML risk reports, escalating unusual activity to management as applicable.
    • Monitor Slack channels for trends or concerns that implicate Greenlight’s AML Policy, Terms of Service, Cardholder Agreement, or other matters that could create regulatory or reputational risk to Greenlight; 
    • Support customer inquiries escalated from Customer Service Representatives, bringing escalated matters to management as needed.
    • Assist with reviewing subpoenas, complaints, audits, and law enforcement requests as directed.
    • Recommend changes to AML procedures and share feedback on observations. Recommend best practices based on changing AML patterns and trends.
    • Participate in ad hoc assignments with cross functional teams as needed.
    • Independently establish and maintain cohesiveness across all key areas while fostering a culture of compliance.

What you should bring:

    • 2-3 years of hands-on AML compliance experience (or a role that worked closely with AML compliance) preferably at a FinTech company or financial institution;
    • Demonstrated knowledge of OFAC (Sanctions) and BSA/AML risks, and typologies (experience in AML compliance software providers preferred); 
    • Experience in identifying unusual transactions using a combination of spreadsheets and monitoring systems;
    • Exceptional written and interpersonal communication skills;
    • Comfortable taking direction and quickly adapting to change in a fast-paced and critical environment;
    • Ability to investigate sensitive matters independently, upholding professionalism and strict confidentiality at all times;
    • Proven analytical and problem solving skills, understanding the need to thoroughly review all matters and consider all downstream impacts prior to recommending change.
Who we are:
It takes a special team to aim for a never-been-done-before mission like ours. We’re looking for people who love working together because they know it makes us stronger, people who look to others and ask, “How can I help?” and then “How can we make this even better?” If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and help parents raise a financially smart generation, apply to join our team.
