About the role
LemFi is building the financial infrastructure for the world's immigrant communities. We operate across roughly 21 countries, hold money transmission licences across the United States, and work within a sponsor bank structure. Compliance here is a strategic function, not a checkbox, and the US programme is one of the most complex and consequential parts of the business.
What they're looking for
- 6 or more years of compliance experience in US payments, money transmission, fintech, or financial services, with genuine hands-on depth in both BSA/AML and consumer compliance
- Solid working knowledge of BSA/AML requirements, FinCEN regulations, and OFAC, including direct experience with SAR and CTR processes
- Experience contributing to a consumer compliance programme covering UDAAP, Reg E, and complaints management, not just advising on it
- Familiarity with multi-state MTL compliance and the regulatory expectations of state money transmission regulators
- Experience working within or alongside a sponsor bank or BaaS compliance structure, and an understanding of how those relationships work under pressure
- Strong written and verbal communication: able to produce clear compliance guidance, policy documents, and regulatory correspondence that the business and regulators can both rely on
