Position: Technical Business Analyst (AML Compliance)
Location: Phoenix, AZ (REMOTE).
Summary:
The Technical Business Analyst - BSA/AML Compliance Platform, is the bridge between the policy documents that govern the program and the technology that delivers it
The Technical Business Analyst reads and interprets Bank Secrecy Act (BSA)/Anti-Money Laundering (AML) policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements, then works with business and technology teams to confirm that what the platform delivers matches what the policies require
The role is documentation-heavy and audit-facing
The analyst traces each policy requirement to a platform deliverable, keeps the evidence organized, and explains technical functionality in plain language to compliance, operations, and business stakeholders
Strong data skills are essential: the Technical Business Analyst writes SQL to validate data, test logic, and answer questions directly rather than waiting on a developer
The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in Power BI, SQL, data modeling, and data analysis, with the ability to transform complex data into actionable business insights
This position is Remote
Responsibilities:
Policy and Requirements Analysis
Read and interpret BSA/AML policies, standards, procedures, and regulatory guidance, and translate them into clear, testable platform requirements
Track changes to policies and regulations and assess their impact on platform functionality, data, and reporting
Maintain a current inventory of requirements, owners, and the controls that support them
Business and Technology Partnership
Meet with business and compliance stakeholders to explain what the platform delivers, what it does not, and where gaps exist
Translate technical concepts, system behavior, and data flows into plain language for non-technical audiences and translate business needs back into technical terms for delivery teams
Take part in planning, release, and change-management discussions, and document decisions and open items
Documentation, Audit, and Traceability
Build and maintain a traceability matrix that ties each policy requirement to a specific platform deliverable, configuration, report, or control
Prepare and maintain business requirements, functional specifications, process flows, data dictionaries, and test evidence
Support internal audit, regulatory examinations, and independent reviews by gathering, organizing, and presenting evidence, and by responding to findings
Identify gaps between policy and delivery, document them, and track remediation to closure
Data Analysis and SQL
Write and optimize SQL queries to validate data quality, reconcile source systems, test monitoring and reporting logic, and answer ad hoc questions
Profile data to find completeness, accuracy, and lineage issues, and recommend fixes
Support User Acceptance Testing (UAT) by designing test cases, running queries against expected results, and documenting outcomes
Qualifications:
4+ years of experience as a Business Analyst, Compliance Analyst, or Systems Analyst in Financial Services
Working knowledge of Bank Secrecy Act (BSA)/Anti-Money Laundering (AML) requirements, including customer due diligence, transaction monitoring, suspicious activity reporting, sanctions screening, and recordkeeping
Proficiency in SQL: able to write joins, aggregations, subqueries, and window functions, and to build queries from scratch against relational databases
Demonstrated ability to read dense policy and regulatory documents and turn them into clear requirements
Experience with building requirements documents, traceability matrices, and audit evidence
Strong verbal and written communication, with the ability to explain technical topics to non-technical audiences and to hold business meetings with confidence
Strong attention to detail, with an organized approach to managing many documents and open items at once
Bachelor's Degree in Business, Finance, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent experience
