Our digital first approach enables our teams the flexibility to work remotely. We have offices in NYC and Boston.
What you'll do:
Reporting into the Director of Fintech Risk, we are seeking a motivated Fintech Risk Analyst who will contribute to and support a strong risk management culture in working with existing and prospective Fintech partners and business leaders across the organization.

  • Serve as primary risk/compliance contact for specific fintech partners, offering expert advice and direction to ensure their programs comply with applicable regulations and align to Bank requirements, especially those related to financial crimes (BSA/AML, OFAC, fraud) and regulatory compliance (account opening, account maintenance and disclosures, bank statements, funds availability, etc.)
  • Support the maintenance of a prioritized roadmap to address gaps and improve control design and testing practices
  • Participate in relevant team and cross-functional meetings as required

What you need:
  • At least 3-5 years of experience in banking or fintech risk management and compliance
  • Demonstrated experience with financial crimes compliance (BSA/AML, OFAC watchlists and sanctions)
  • Working knowledge across essential banking compliance areas, including UDAAP, payment network rules (NACHA, VISA/Mastercard, FedNow/TCH RTP), core commercial or consumer compliance regulations (e.g., Reg E, Reg Z, Reg DD, Reg CC, ECOA, FCRA), and/or data privacy regulations (GLBA, FCRA, state laws)
  • Experience in Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) and related interagency guidance (e.g., OCC, FDIC, FRB)
  • Proficient technical knowledge in financial technology and payments is preferred
  • Strong critical thinking traits, including analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making capabilities
  • Ability to develop and maintain reporting, dashboards and presentations preferred
  • Strong team orientation and ability to collaborate effectively
  • Ability to think outside of the box to develop creative solutions to emerging problems
  • A Bachelor's degree or equivalent relevant work experience
