Responsibilities
- Own compliance-focused product areas from problem definition and architecture through implementation, launch, production operation, and iteration
- Build clear, maintainable interfaces along with the APIs, data models, workflows, and integrations that make them work
- Turn complex regulatory and operational requirements into intuitive, testable product behavior for customers and internal users
- Integrate third-party APIs and webhooks from identity, sanctions, blockchain analytics, fraud, and case-management providers while maintaining strong data quality, privacy, observability, and auditability
- Design for real-world failure modes, including delayed and reordered vendor events, manual review, partial outages, retries, and conflicting state across systems
- Work directly with Compliance, Legal, Risk, Operations, Product, Design, and users to understand the domain and make sound product and technical tradeoffs
- Apply AI and machine learning where they can safely reduce manual work or improve decision support, with appropriate security, human review, explainability, and audit trails
- Raise the level of the team through clear design work, thoughtful code review, strong operational ownership, and effective use of modern AI engineering tools
Skills
- 4+ years of experience building and operating production full-stack applications with React, Next.js, Node.js, and TypeScript

- High standards for security, correctness, reliability, usability, and maintainability
- The ability to communicate clearly, learn unfamiliar domains quickly, and create alignment across technical, legal, compliance, and operational partners
- High agency and low ego. You move important work forward, invite strong critique, surface risk early, and care more about getting the system right than being right
- Familiarity with financial-crime controls and frameworks such as BSA/AML, OFAC, FinCEN, KYC/CDD, SEC, or FATF
- Experience building fintech, payments, trading, crypto, or other products where correctness, trust, and regulatory obligations are essential
- Experience with systems that combine offchain identity and compliance data with onchain activity
