Finvari is a fast-growing SaaS startup transforming the way construction companies handle payments. Our mission is to eliminate manual, repetitive payment tasks, empowering construction leaders to focus on building the infrastructure of tomorrow. From field employees to the C-Suite, our customer-centric software streamlines processes, improves efficiency, and drives innovation across the industry.
We're a close-knit, experienced team with a track record of building and scaling successful software companies—some of which have even gone public. At Finvari, innovation, creativity, and customer focus are at the heart of what we do. We're looking for team members who share our passion for problem-solving and want to make a direct impact. Our culture is collaborative, autonomous, and customer-obsessed.
As Compliance Manager, you will report to the Chief Financial Officer and be a core member of our Compliance function, driving operational initiatives with both internal stakeholders and external financial partners. This role will be heavily focused on BSA/AML and sanctions compliance while requiring a generalist mindset across other regulatory domains.
You’ll partner closely with teams across finance, operations, as well as with our external financial partners, card networks, and regulatory agencies, to ensure our compliance program meets the highest standards. You’ll also work closely with our engineering teams to derive solutions to meet our compliance needs as we scale. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who thrives in fast-paced environments, is highly detail-oriented, and brings both analytical skills and tech fluency to solving complex compliance challenges.
This is an opportunity to help shape and scale a best-in-class compliance program at a high-growth fintech. You’ll gain hands-on experience across card program oversight, regulatory reporting, and partner engagement — making an impact on the company, our customers, and the industry.
This is a hybrid role that allows for remote work flexibility. Once a week, we get together for in-person team collaboration and a team lunch in our Seattle office.
