Senior BSA / AML Analyst
Austin, TX
Full-time | OCC Regulated | High Ownership
There are very few BSA roles in the United States that offer genuine ownership inside an OCC regulated bank, and even fewer in Austin. The city is known for its tech-first financial services companies, and roles that combine hands-on investigations, regulatory responsibility and real influence are uncommon.
If you live in Austin and work in financial services, this is a rare opportunity to step into meaningful banking work without relocating to New York. Many people enjoy visiting New York for a few days but have no desire to live there permanently. This role offers the depth and responsibility associated with major institutions while keeping you rooted in Austin.
This position exists because of internal promotion. The bank is growing quickly, and the previous operator moved into a leadership role. That progression will not limit you. The function continues to scale, and the expectation is that strong performers grow with the bank. What it demonstrates is the culture: capability is recognized and rewarded.
You will work closely with the BSA Manager and BSA Officer, taking ownership of investigations and supporting the execution of the BSA/AML program. This is a high-standard environment that values precision, clarity and operational discipline.
Twelve10 was retained to build the wider U.S. compliance team, and this appointment is an important next step as the bank continues its growth trajectory.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
You will step into a role where you have genuine ownership of investigations, monitoring work and SAR preparation inside a regulated environment. The institution is OCC supervised, operational and already onboarding clients. What the team now requires is a capable operator who can maintain the pace, quality and discipline expected within the BSA function.
This is a senior individual contributor role. You will not inherit direct reports on day one. Instead, you will have space to refine your craft, support the BSA Manager and take responsibility for critical workflows that shape the bank’s regulatory posture.
Internal mobility is a real part of this team’s culture. The previous holder of this position was promoted because the bank continues to grow, and the U.S. function is expanding. As the institution scales, roles evolve with it.
The bank operates with modern tooling and a technology-enabled model. Candidates comfortable with GRC and AML platforms, or with experience in SaaS-driven compliance environments, will be well aligned.
Who This Will Suit
This role suits an operator with experience in a regulated BSA/AML environment who is comfortable owning investigations and escalations with limited oversight.
Examples include:
• A Senior BSA Analyst or BSA Lead handling complex casework
• An investigations specialist in a commercial, regional or custody bank
• A financial crimes operator from a tech-focused bank who wants more substance
• An AML professional who prefers direct ownership instead of large, bureaucratic teams
Clear communication, strong judgement and the ability to maintain pace in a high-standard environment will set you apart.
What You Will Do
• Manage detailed investigations and handle escalations consistently
• Perform CIP, CDD, EDD and ongoing monitoring reviews
• Draft clear, well-supported SAR narratives
• Support QA, UAT and testing of AML systems and monitoring logic
• Contribute to updates of BSA procedures and risk assessments
• Assist with workflow improvements as the function expands
• Serve as a point of contact for complex case escalations before they reach the BSA Officer
• Support the BSA Manager in maintaining program momentum and quality
What You Will Bring
• Experience operating independently in a regulated BSA/AML function
• Strong investigations capability and comfort handling complex reviews
• Literacy across TM, SARs, CIP, CDD, EDD and OFAC screening
• Experience supporting a BSA Officer or BSA Manager
• Strong written communication skills
• Experience with UAT or AML tech testing is advantageous
• CAMS, CFCS or similar certifications are welcomed but not required
