About the Team

This Specialist role will be part of the Fraud Prevention department and will play a key role in strengthening QuintoAndar’s Anti-Money Laundering (AML) framework, with a strong focus on risk identification, control implementation (particularly through technology), and development of monitoring processes.

About the Role

The Specialist will play a key role in identifying and assessing AML-related risks, developing risk matrices, implementing preventive controls, and designing an effective monitoring process. While this role will not be responsible for investigating suspicious activities or drafting policies and training materials, it is critical to ensuring we maintain a robust and compliant AML program.

Given our strong focus on technology and product development, it will be considered a plus if the professional has prior experience working in tech-driven environments and feels comfortable collaborating closely with cross-functional teams, particularly Product & Engineering.

Our Challenge

Our biggest challenge is operating effectively within a highly dynamic and technologically complex environment. It’s crucial that our anti-money laundering (AML) controls are best in class—robust, scalable, and fully compliant with evolving regulations and market expectations.

This role offers a unique opportunity for high autonomy, where your work will directly influence how we conduct business and manage financial crime risks. You will be instrumental in shaping the future of our AML program, helping us build strong, technology-driven controls that support sustainable growth and regulatory excellence.

Track and coordinate financial crime risk issues across relevant stakeholders, ensuring clear ownership, visibility, and timely resolution of action items.
Identify technical and tooling needs in collaboration with Product, Engineering, and Operations teams, and lead the execution of solutions to support AML monitoring and control activities.
Contribute to the continuous improvement of the AML risk and control environment, ensuring scalability and alignment with the company’s digital and data-driven approach.
This role is not responsible for conducting investigations or drafting AML policies and training, but it plays a critical role in building the foundation of our AML ecosystem through proactive risk management and process design.
