About the Role

Relay is a digital banking platform designed to empower self-made business owners with financial clarity, confidence, and control. We aim to increase the success rate of small businesses by transforming cash flow management from a source of stress into a clear signal for running stronger businesses. The Transaction Monitoring team plays a crucial role in maintaining the trust of over 321,000 small business owners by making critical decisions on transactions.

Responsibilities

  • Review and investigate suspicious activity across deposits, checks, wires, and card transactions.
  • Make and own hold/release decisions on flagged transactions by verifying signals, checking details, and reviewing customer documentation.

  • Document investigations clearly and completely for compliance, bank partners, and examiners.
  • Suggest improvements to fraud rules and controls, identifying false positives and gaps.
  • Collaborate with Compliance, Customer Experience, and Product teams to resolve cases efficiently.
  • Utilize AI tools daily for faster investigations, data retrieval, and process improvement.

Requirements

  • 2+ years of transaction monitoring experience at a bank, fintech, or payments company.

  • Ability to make and stand behind decisions regarding transaction holds and releases.
  • Problem-solving skills with high agency; proactively identify issues and propose solutions.
  • Actively using AI tools in current work and enthusiasm for exploring their potential.
