- Serve as the primary point of contact for regulators, banking partners, auditors, and external compliance stakeholders in the context of Money Transmission Licenses.
- Own the enterprise compliance risk assessment, ensuring proper evaluation of emerging risks across Web3, fiat flows, and developer APIs.
Operational Compliance Management
- Oversee daily AML operations, including transaction monitoring, blockchain analytics reviews, case investigations, SAR/STR filings, OFAC screening, and high-risk customer escalations.
- Manage and refine policies, procedures, and controls to meet evolving regulatory requirements, including FinCEN, OFAC, FATF, and state money transmission frameworks.
- Supervise third-party compliance partners, tools, and vendors (e.g., identity verification, blockchain analytics, sanctions screening).
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Partner with product, engineering, and operations teams to embed compliance-by-design into new features and workflows (e.g., wallet creation, payments, tokenization, on/off-ramps).
- Advise on compliance implications for new business models, product launches, and geographic expansions.
- Deliver compliance reporting to senior leadership and the Board, including KPIs, risk exposure, and regulatory updates.
Regulatory Strategy & Industry Engagement
- Monitor evolving regulations and industry standards across fintech and crypto; proactively adapt Crossmint’s programs to remain best-in-class.
- Collaborate with legal and policy teams on licensing, regulatory filings, and interactions with supervisory agencies.
What We’re Looking For
- Have 7+ years of AML/BSA compliance experience with a proven track record of building and managing programs, ideally within fintech, payments, crypto, or other regulated financial services.
