Senior AML Investigator (Contract)

About BankSocial

BankSocial is a financial infrastructure company serving banks and credit unions. We are the orchestration layer that unifies fragmented financial services, including payments, digital wealth, identity, and fraud and compliance, into a single, core-connected experience the institution owns. Our fraud and compliance work combines purpose-built forensic tooling with experienced investigators who know how large-bank financial crimes programs actually operate.

The Engagement

We are standing up a team of 20 senior AML investigators for a complex investigations engagement at a large US bank. This is a high-volume, high-scrutiny caseload of externally referred matters. Investigators work on-site in Dallas and start immediately.

You will not spend your day pulling statements and formatting spreadsheets. BankSocial's forensic tools handle data gathering and produce first drafts, so your time goes where it matters: judgment, analysis, and defensible conclusions.

What You'll Do

• Investigate externally referred AML cases, including law enforcement inquiries, grand jury subpoenas, 314(a) and 314(b) requests, and negative news referrals

• Analyze customer, account, transaction, and wire activity to establish patterns, source and use of funds, and red flags

• Identify and connect related parties across accounts, entities, and counterparties

• Make the call: recommend SAR filing or case closure with a clear, well-supported rationale

• Write SAR narratives that are concise, complete, and hold up to regulatory and law enforcement review

• Work alongside BankSocial's forensic tools, validating and refining automated data pulls and draft outputs rather than building them from scratch

What You Need

• 5+ years in AML investigations, with the majority at large US banks

• CAMS certification or equivalent

• Hands-on experience with grand jury subpoenas, law enforcement inquiries, and 314(a)/314(b) requests

• US-based and able to pass background and access checks

• Ability to work on-site in Dallas, TX

Preferred: Typology Experience

Direct investigative experience in one or more of the following is a strong plus:

• Sanctions evasion (Iran, Russia)

• Chinese money laundering networks

• Southwest border and narcotics-related activity

• Fraud rings

• Human trafficking

• Crypto and digital asset activity

Why This Role

• Immediate start on a substantive, large-bank investigations engagement

• Better tooling: forensic automation removes the grunt work so you focus on investigative judgment

• Senior peer group: a team of 20 experienced investigators working complex referrals
