Head of Compliance

Overview

We're building the KYC / KYB onboarding copilot and corridor-specific AML / KYT "pre-flight" checks for stablecoin & cross-border payments. Targets : ≤30-minute compliance approval TAT and ~15% false-positive screening rate without under-catching—so compliance teams can ship new flows faster and safer.

Role focus (what you'll own)

• End-to-end LATAM compliance program : KYC / KYB standards, sanctions / PEP continuous screening, transaction-risk policies, evidence trails, audit logs.
• Corridor risk registers : Define & maintain risk controls for key routes (e.g., USMX, BRAR, MXCO), including fiat–crypto on / off-ramps and Travel Rule obligations across VASP FI.
• Screening quality & speed : Set measurable targets for false-positive rate, reviewer agreement, and TAT; design playbooks to hit them.
• Regulatory readiness : Map applicable LATAM regulations and supervisor expectations; lead audit / readiness checks; maintain policy library and control testing cadence.
• Vendor & data controls : Own selection and governance of AML / KYC vendors (e.g., sanctions / PEP, KYB corp data, Travel Rule), define data-retention, SAR / STR processes, and access controls.
• Partner enablement : Collaborate with product / engineering to embed controls into onboarding, payments, and off-ramp flows; write clear reviewer guidance and exception paths.
• Training & incident response : Run periodic training; chair fincrime incident reviews and corrective-action plans.
