AML Solutions Associate Manager

Job Description

Ready to be pushed beyond what you think you’re capable of?

At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom in the world. It’s a massive, ambitious opportunity that demands the best of us, every day, as we build the emerging onchain platform — and with it, the future global financial system.

To achieve our mission, we’re seeking a very specific candidate. We want someone who is passionate about our mission and who believes in the power of crypto and blockchain technology to update the financial system. We want someone who is eager to leave their mark on the world, who relishes the pressure and privilege of working with high caliber colleagues, and who actively seeks feedback to keep leveling up. We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company’s hardest problems.

Our work culture is intense and isn’t for everyone. But if you want to build the future alongside others who excel in their disciplines and expect the same from you, there’s no better place to be.

In this role, you'll work closely with cross-functional teams to improve and streamline case management workflows, ensuring everything runs smoothly and stays compliant. You'll be the main point of contact for both internal teams and external vendors, helping prioritize system updates and resolving any issues that come up. Managing system access, overseeing change management, and providing training on updates will also be part of your responsibilities. To succeed, you'll need 7+ years of experience in financial crime compliance, particularly with AML systems, and a solid understanding of regulatory requirements. Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset are key, and experience in fintech or crypto is a bonus. Certifications like ACAMS are highly valued.

What you’ll be doing:

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to design workflows to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of the case management system.
• Perform testing to ensure functionality and compliance of existing and new workflows
• Act as primary liaison between internal Coinbase stakeholders and external vendors to prioritize new features and system enhancements
• Serve as the main point of contact for interpreting issues and bugs within the case management system. Work closely with internal stakeholders to fully understand and document issues, and relay them to external stakeholders. Own the resolution of the process from start to completion, ensuring timely fixes.
• Develop and deliver training in relation to system/workflow updates as necessary.
• Manage and maintain systems access.
• Responsibility for change management framework and working with relevant stakeholders for implementation approvals.

What we look for in you:

• 4+ years of experience in financial crime compliance related roles
• 3+ years experience in designing/enhancing AML Systems and Tools
• Proven track record in delivering Regulatory & Compliance projects in complex financial services environments
• Strong knowledge of AML regulatory requirements in the US and Internationally
• Collaborative approach with excellent oral and written communication skills
• Ability to engage effectively with a diverse group of stakeholders, both internal and external.
• Financial Crime Related Qualification (such as ACAMS or ICA)

Nice to haves:

• One or more of the following certifications: ACAMS, CCAS, TRM-CI, TRM-ACI
• Fintech/Startup experience
• Crypto industry experience
