Title: Internal Auditor 
Location: Remote (ET Hours)
Duration: Contract to 2/28/27 with possible extensions
Compensation: $49-60/HR w2
Work Requirements: US Citizen, Green Card Holder

Position Summary

We are seeking experienced AML Internal Auditors to support a large-scale audit and validation initiative within a highly regulated financial services environment.

This is a hands-on Internal Audit role focused on independently testing and validating AML-related processes, technology, transactions, alerts, and application controls. The ideal candidate brings recent banking experience, direct AML audit experience, and strong audit testing and workpaper development skills.

This is not an AML Compliance, AML Operations, KYC, or investigative role.

Key Responsibilities

• Execute risk-based Internal Audit testing across AML-related processes, systems, and controls
• Lead walkthroughs with process, application, and control owners
• Develop and execute audit testing procedures
• Test AML/BSA controls, transaction-monitoring processes, and system-generated alerts
• Perform targeted, transaction, and input/output testing
• Evaluate control design and operating effectiveness
• Test technology and application controls supporting AML processes
• Review basic application/system logic to understand and validate expected functionality
• Obtain and independently evaluate supporting audit evidence
• Identify and document testing exceptions and control deficiencies
• Develop complete, audit-quality workpapers
• Document testing methodology, evidence, results, and conclusions
• Support issue and remediation validation
• Communicate findings and conclusions clearly to audit stakeholders

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree
• Multiple years of hands-on Internal Audit experience
• Recent banking or financial institution experience
• Direct AML audit experience
• Experience personally executing audit testing from walkthrough through conclusion
• Strong audit workpaper development experience
• Experience evaluating evidence and testing control effectiveness
• Experience identifying, documenting, and supporting audit exceptions/findings
• Understanding of technology and application controls
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to work independently in a complex, highly regulated environment

Relevant Experience May Include

• AML/BSA Internal Audit
• AML transaction monitoring
• AML technology/application controls
• Transaction and alert testing
• Suspicious activity processes
• Input/output or data validation
• Issue/remediation validation
• Application control testing
• Technology Internal Audit
• Regulatory audit testing

Important Distinction

Candidates must have been responsible for independently auditing and testing AML processes and controls.

Experience primarily performing AML investigations, KYC/CDD, transaction-monitoring operations, regulatory compliance, policy management, or general Compliance activities without substantive Internal Audit experience does not meet the requirements of this role.
