About the team

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.

What you’ll do

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.

Who you are

We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum 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.

Preferred qualifications

  • 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.

In-office expectations

Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in our Bucharest, Romania site have an 80% in-office expectation, and those in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico and Bengaluru, India work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.

Pay and benefits

The annual US base salary range for this role is $220,800 - $331,200. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.
