Anti-Money Laundering Analyst in India at Jobgether

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for an Anti-Money Laundering Analyst based in India.

This role offers the opportunity to play a hands-on part in protecting a fast-moving cryptocurrency business from financial crime and regulatory risk.
You will investigate suspicious activity across digital platforms and a large-scale cryptocurrency transaction network.
The position combines transaction monitoring, AML/BSA compliance, KYC/CDD reviews, sanctions screening, and investigative analysis.
You will use data and blockchain analytics to identify patterns, assess risk, and make well-supported compliance decisions.
Your work will help strengthen controls, support regulatory obligations, and surface actionable insights for leadership.
You will collaborate with compliance teams, regulators, auditors, and business stakeholders in a rapidly evolving environment.
This is an excellent opportunity for a detail-oriented AML professional who wants to take genuine ownership of risk decisions rather than simply follow checklists.

• Investigate and assess financial crime risks associated with cryptocurrency kiosk operations and digital platforms, with particular focus on high-risk activity.
• Review and analyze transaction monitoring alerts to identify potentially suspicious activity and determine appropriate escalation and documentation.
• Conduct Know Your Customer (KYC) and Customer Due Diligence (CDD) reviews in accordance with applicable AML requirements.
• Screen customers and transactions against OFAC and other applicable sanctions lists and escalate potential matches appropriately.
• Prepare and file Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) and other required regulatory reports accurately and within applicable deadlines.
• Use blockchain analytics tools to trace cryptocurrency transactions, investigate activity, and assess counterparty and transactional risk.
• Communicate with regulators and auditors regarding risk monitoring, controls, prioritization methodologies, and investigative findings.
• Develop and report risk mitigation information, identify emerging trends, and provide insights that leadership can use to strengthen the compliance program.
• Review internal data, systems, controls, and processes to verify adherence to AML requirements and identify potential compliance gaps.
• Recommend improvements to AML processes, controls, workflows, and monitoring practices when opportunities or deficiencies are identified.
• Stay current with evolving AML/BSA regulations, FinCEN guidance, sanctions requirements, and cryptocurrency-specific compliance developments.
• Support additional compliance initiatives, investigations, and special projects as required.

Requirements

• Hands-on experience in AML, BSA compliance, fraud investigations, financial crime compliance, or a closely related field.
• Experience within fintech, money services businesses (MSBs), cryptocurrency exchanges, financial institutions, or similar regulated environments is strongly preferred.
• Solid knowledge of AML/BSA regulations, KYC and CDD requirements, transaction monitoring, and sanctions screening, including OFAC requirements.
• Familiarity with cryptocurrency transactions and blockchain-based financial activity is highly desirable.
• Experience using blockchain analytics or transaction monitoring platforms such as Chainalysis, Elliptic, or comparable tools is a strong advantage.
• Strong analytical skills, with the ability to identify unusual patterns, inconsistencies, and potential risk indicators within high-volume transaction data.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain complex risk findings clearly to regulators, auditors, compliance teams, and non-compliance stakeholders.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to produce accurate, well-supported investigative documentation.
• Ability to manage multiple investigations and priorities simultaneously while consistently meeting deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
• Proactive, solutions-oriented approach with strong organization, time management, independent judgment, and problem-solving skills.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Adobe Acrobat.
• Ability to exercise sound judgment when assessing risk and determining when activity requires escalation or further investigation.
• Candidates must be currently based in Latin America or Europe according to the engagement requirements.

Benefits

• Competitive salary paid in USD on a consistent monthly basis.
• 100% remote work arrangement.
• Opportunity to work within the rapidly evolving cryptocurrency and fintech sector.
• 10 paid vacation days per year.
• U.S. federal holidays included as paid holidays.
• Professional remote work setup with the flexibility to work from eligible locations in Latin America or Europe.
