Financial Crime Analyst

About the Role

Flex is looking for a curious, detail-oriented analyst to join our Financial Crime team. In this role,

you will be reviewing transaction monitoring alerts, conducting KYC due diligence, and helping keep

our platform and our customers safe against money laundering, fraud, and other illicit activity.

This is a great opportunity for someone early in their compliance career who wants to build deep

expertise in a fast-paced fintech environment and grow into broader program responsibilities over

time.

What You'll Do

Transaction Monitoring

• Review and disposition transaction monitoring alerts, applying BSA/AML typologies to

distinguish suspicious activity from false positives

• Draft clear, well-supported case narratives and escalate higher-risk activity for supervisory

review

• Contribute to UAR/SAR filing support under the direction of senior team members

KYC & Customer Due Diligence

• Conduct KYC reviews for new and existing customers, verifying identity documents and

assessing risk profiles

• Identify customers that warrant enhanced due diligence (EDD) and flag for escalation
• Maintain accurate, complete records in our case management system

Program Support

• Assist with periodic quality assurance and file reviews, including for our bank partner

program

• Help identify patterns or process gaps that could improve detection coverage or review

efficiency

• Participate in team training and stay current on evolving AML typologies and regulatory

guidance

What We're Looking For

Required

• 1-2 years of experience in BSA/AML compliance, fraud operations, or a related financial

crimes role (internship or co-op experience considered)

• Working knowledge of KYC/CDD requirements and BSA obligations
• Strong written communication - you can explain why something is or isn't suspicious in

plain language

• High attention to detail and comfort working through ambiguous or incomplete information
• Ability to manage a queue and prioritize effectively
• Embody a growth mindset and bring a self-driven mentality to your work

Nice to Have

• Experience with a transaction monitoring platform (e.g., Sardine, Unit21, Actimize, or similar)
• Exposure to fintech, payments, or BaaS program compliance
• CAMS or other AML certification in progress or completed
