Job DescriptionWise is pioneering a new era of cross-border finance. As we expand our footprint in Brazil, we are looking for a FinCrime Product Compliance Manager to join our team.

Your mission is to enable the launch of innovative products and partnerships while ensuring our FinCrime risk profile is managed through robust, scalable, and customer-centric controls. You will ensure that Wise Brazil remains compliant with BCB Circular 3,978/2020 and other key regulations without compromising the seamless experience our customers expect.
Your Mission
Enable Growth: Support the Brazil and Global Platform teams in launching new products and partnerships by deeply understanding FinCrime risks and designing associated controls.
1LOD Ownership: Act as a hands-on compliance partner within the product development cycle, translating regulatory requirements into technical specifications for engineers and product managers.
Risk Management: Identify, mitigate, and oversee the FinCrime control environment, ensuring that our Brazilian offering adheres to both local mandates and Wise’s global risk appetite.
Key Responsibilities

Collaborate with Product Managers and Engineers to design KYC, AML, and Anti-Fraud controls that are practical, scalable, and customer-oriented.
Perform pre-launch and ongoing FinCrime risk assessments for new products and features.
Ensure controls scale with the product by developing automated monitoring processes to mitigate financial crime risk effectively.
Regulatory Risk & Advisory
Provide expert advice on existing and forthcoming BCB and CMN regulations (e.g., Circular 3,978/2020, among others).
Translate "regulatory problems" into technical opportunities, helping teams build risk-based products from the ground up.
Collaborate with 2LOD (Compliance) to stay ahead of regulatory shifts and ensure the Product team is aligned with current guidance.
Audit, Remediation & External Relations
Issue Management: Oversee the remediation of FinCrime-related issues and ensure timely mitigation of regulatory risks.
