About the role
Polymarket US operates under CFTC oversight as a regulated prediction market, which means the compliance function carries real regulatory weight. The AML team is responsible for detecting and reporting suspicious activity across a user base that transacts through card, ACH and stablecoin rails, and the work requires both financial crime expertise and the ability to think clearly about a product that looks different from a traditional bank or broker. The team is small and the caseload is real. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 4 or more years of hands-on AML investigation experience, including writing SARs that have been filed with FinCEN
- Strong working knowledge of the Bank Secrecy Act, SAR filing requirements and core AML regulations
- Demonstrated ability to analyze transaction activity across multiple payment rails and draw well-supported conclusions about the nature of that activity
- Clear written communication, specifically the ability to write SAR narratives that are accurate, organized and defensible
- Experience with investigative research tools such as CLEAR or LexisNexis, and with case management systems
- A track record of managing a caseload independently, meeting deadlines and maintaining quality under volume
