About this role
ABOUT AIRWALLEX
Airwallex is the AI-native financial operating system for a real-time, intelligent economy. More than 675,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own.
We started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.
We're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,700 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do.

HOW YOU'LL MAKE IMPACT
You'll strengthen Airwallex's global AML/CTF framework so the business can grow safely across markets, products, and payment flows. You'll develop and maintain risk-based policies, processes, controls, and guidance covering customer due diligence, enhanced due diligence, beneficial ownership, transaction monitoring, sanctions-related financial crime controls, and higher-risk customer management. You'll translate regulatory developments and financial crime risks into practical requirements, partnering with Product, Risk, Data, Engineering, Operations, Compliance Technology, and regional compliance teams to improve onboarding, screening, monitoring, payment, and case-management workflows. You'll support escalated customer, account, and transaction reviews, regulatory examinations, partner bank inquiries, audits, governance reporting, training, remediation, and continuous improvement across the global programme.
This role can be based in Dallas, Texas or Birmingham, UK.
