About The Position

Bridge is hiring a Global Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO) who will also serve as the BSA Officer for all US-regulated entities including our forthcoming OCC National Trust Bank. As one of the early senior leaders in Compliance, you’ll build and run a strong financial crime program that’s right-sized for a fast-growing company but robust enough for bank-level oversight.
This role blends strategy and hands-on execution. You’ll shape how Bridge manages AML, sanctions, and financial crime risk globally while serving as the primary point of contact for U.S. regulators.

Requirements

• 8+ years leadership experience in AML/BSA, including responsibility for regulator-facing financial crime programs (e.g., MLRO, BSA Officer, Deputy BSA Officer).
• Strong working knowledge of U.S. BSA/AML, OFAC, OCC expectations, and FFIEC requirements.
• Comfortable in a startup-like environment — able to move between high-level strategy and hands-on work.
• Strong communicator who can work cross-functionally and engage confidently with regulators.

Nice To Haves

• Experience working in a global financial institution and building global policies, standards, and frameworks across multiple disciplines and jurisdictions.
• Experience working with third-party on-chain monitoring tools for digital assets and blockchains.
• Understanding of digital assets, stablecoins and blockchains.

Responsibilities

• Serve as the designated BSA Officer for our US-regulated entities and serve as the primary point of contact for state applicable regulatory agencies, the OCC and FinCEN.
• Own and evolve Bridge’s global AML/BSA and financial crime program, including policies, risk assessments, and governance.
• Oversee core operations: customer due diligence, EDD, transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, SARs/CTRs, and investigations.
• Partner with Product, Engineering, and Risk to ensure controls are effective, scalable, and embedded into workflows.
• Prepare board/executive reporting, support independent audits/exams, and guide the company through supervisory processes.
• Lead global financial crime strategy across entities and jurisdictions as Bridge continues to grow.
• Accountable for regulatory change management, including tracking, interpreting, and operationalizing OCC bulletins, FFIEC updates, and FinCEN rulemaking.
• Provide oversight of model risk management where transaction monitoring or sanctions screening tools involve machine learning or statistical models, consistent with OCC model risk guidance.
• Responsibility for ensuring staff training programs meet OCC standards — including board-level AML/BSA training and documentation of attendance/completion.
