BSA/Compliance Coordinator (Contract) — Fintech Card + Deposit Program
We're a US-based financial company launching a new fintech program — a card paired with deposit accounts and a line-of-credit product, delivered through a sponsor-bank partnership. Our sponsor bank and card processor run the core BSA/AML engine (transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, SAR filing). We need a detail-oriented compliance coordinator to keep our side of the program organized, documented, and on schedule.
This is primarily a checklist-and-coordination role: keep the compliance calendar moving, gather and organize the documentation our partners require, complete recurring reviews, and make sure nothing slips. Strong fit for someone who has run compliance operations and likes a clean, well-kept paper trail.
What you'll do:
- Maintain the compliance task calendar — recurring reviews, attestations, reporting deadlines, and partner requests — and keep everything on schedule
- Complete and document periodic compliance checklists (program reviews, control checks, policy attestations)
- Gather, organize, and submit the documentation and reports our sponsor bank and processor require from us as a program partner
- Keep the compliance recordkeeping system clean and exam-ready (files, logs, evidence of controls)
- Track and follow up on open items and remediation with our internal team and vendors
- Help keep our written policies and procedures current (you won't be writing the program from scratch)
- Flag anything that looks off to program leadership for escalation
Must-haves:
- 2+ years in a BSA/AML or financial-compliance support/operations role
- Familiarity with CIP/KYC, OFAC, SAR/CTR, and FinCEN concepts — enough to manage the checklist and documentation
- Highly organized and deadline-driven; comfortable owning a recurring compliance calendar
- Clear writer who produces clean, exam-ready documentation
- Reliable, responsive, and comfortable working independently with light oversight
Nice to have:
- Experience supporting a sponsor-bank / BaaS card or deposit program
- Exposure to fintech or a startup/launch environment
- CAMS or other compliance certification (not required)
To apply, please answer briefly:
1. Describe a compliance program you supported and the recurring tasks you owned.
2. How do you keep a compliance calendar and documentation organized and on schedule?
3. Your availability (hours/week) and hourly rate within our range.
We'll move fast with strong fits — keep it tight.
