About the Role

You will carry the casework and produce the intelligence that defends Remitly against the most serious types of financial crime: human trafficking and forced labor, sanctions evasion, terrorist financing, transnational fraud, and professional money laundering. The role has three parts: working complex cases end-to-end, running proactive intelligence work to develop detection logic, and overseeing detection performance. This is a matrixed mandate where you provide subject matter direction and quality oversight to investigators.

Responsibilities

  • Work complex, high severity, and novel cases end to end.
  • Build analytic conclusions from limited initial indicators and expand from a single actor to the network around them.
  • Document investigative work and reporting decisions to a standard that holds up under examination, audit, and litigation.
  • Escalate sensitive and time-critical findings promptly, with the context needed for a decision.
  • Run proactive investigations and thematic reviews into high risk typologies, synthesizing internal transaction and customer data with law enforcement input, legal process material, open source research, and commercial intelligence.
  • Query and analyze large transaction data sets directly to identify patterns, structures, and networks existing monitoring does not surface.
  • Develop typology characteristics into operational detection requirements, and support Transaction Monitoring and Data Science partners in building, tuning, testing, and validating the resulting scenarios.
  • Produce written assessments and briefings that state findings clearly, separate evidence from inference, and convey confidence levels honestly when information is incomplete or unreliable.
  • Own a defined threat portfolio and become the internal reference point for it.
  • Monitor high risk typology scenarios in production and assess whether they yield the intended outcomes.
  • Review global operations casework against high risk typology scenarios, identify where investigative treatment diverges from intent, and drive correction through feedback, guidance, and typology-specific training.
  • Provide subject matter direction to global operations investigators on high risk typology matters.
  • Surface systemic detection failures, including false negative exposure and scenario drift, and drive them to resolution with the accountable owners.
  • Support law enforcement and FIU engagement, including responding to typology-focused and geographically focused legal process, preparing referral packages, and contributing to information sharing partnerships.

Requirements

  • 7+ years in financial crime investigations, financial intelligence, law enforcement, or intelligence analysis, with substantial time on complex or proactive investigative work rather than alert disposition alone.
  • Working depth in high risk typologies and the associated red flags.
  • Demonstrated ability to build a case from ambiguous starting facts and document it defensibly.
  • Hands-on data analysis capability; write your own SQL and work independently in large data sets.
  • Experience assessing the quality of other investigators' work and influencing how it improves without direct reporting authority.
  • Strong OSINT and public records research skills.
  • Clear, economical writing skills to produce intelligence a senior stakeholder can act on without a walkthrough.
  • Experience interacting with law enforcement or regulatory bodies, or handling legal process and information requests.
  • Sound judgment and discretion with sensitive material.
  • Cross-border payments, money transmission, or remittance experience.
  • Depth in one or more of: human trafficking and forced labor, sanctions evasion, terrorist financing, transnational fraud, professional money laundering.
  • Blockchain analytics experience (Chainalysis, TRM Labs, Elliptic).
  • Experience using AI tooling to accelerate research, network analysis, or narrative production, and the judgment to know where it should not be relied on.
  • Multi-jurisdictional exposure.
  • Additional language capability relevant to Remitly corridors.
  • CAMS, CFCS, CFE, or equivalent certification.
