This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys working with large datasets, solving sophisticated problems, and shaping high-impact compliance solutions in a fast-moving, global environment.

What you will accomplish:

  • Analyze large, sophisticated datasets to identify trends, patterns, and typologies related to potential money laundering or terrorist financing activity, and translate insights into clear reporting for leadership.

  • Design, test, implement, and maintain transaction monitoring rules, scenarios, and supporting analytics that strengthen AML program coverage across eBay, Depop, and other subsidiaries.

  • Build and enhance KPI dashboards, standardized reporting packages, and ad hoc analyses that help measure program effectiveness and support timely business and compliance decisions.

  • Partner cross-functionally with Compliance, Engineering, Risk, Product, Operations, and other stakeholders to define business requirements and deliver scalable monitoring and control solutions.

  • Improve data architecture, mapping, ingestion, and automation to support efficient monitoring processes, strong data quality, and sustainable operational controls.

  • Support high-priority compliance data and technology initiatives, contributing to system improvements, risk mitigation strategies, and the continued evolution of a best-in-class transaction monitoring program.

What you will bring:

  • Must reside in the Austin metro area and be able to work onsite in our Austin office 3 or more days per week.

  • 2–4 years of experience working with large datasets and writing complex queries across multiple data sources, with hands-on skills in Python, SQL, and data analysis in a compliance, risk, or technology environment.

  • 2–4 years of experience in transaction monitoring, AML typologies, financial crime risk, or related compliance disciplines, with the ability to help develop effective monitoring coverage and risk-based rules.

  • 2–4 years of experience with data warehousing, big data environments such as Hadoop, and business intelligence tools such as Tableau; advanced Excel skills are a plus.

  • 2–4 years of experience in statistical modeling, data mapping, reporting automation, and translating analytical findings into practical business or compliance solutions.

  • Strong communication, documentation, and presentation skills, with the ability to explain insights and recommendations clearly to partners and leaders across functions.
