About the Role

Join Keep as a Junior KYC/KYB Analyst, where your detail-oriented mindset and analytical skills will help uphold the integrity of our customer onboarding and compliance processes. You’ll support reviewing and verifying customer information, help maintain regulatory standards, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure a smooth and compliant onboarding experience for all clients. If you’re looking to build your career in fintech compliance and want to make a meaningful impact early on, this role is for you.

Who We’re Looking For

• You’re highly analytical and can assess documentation and data with a critical eye.

• You bring exceptional attention to detail and are comfortable maintaining accurate, well-organized records.

• You’re collaborative and communicative — someone who works well across teams and asks excellent questions.

• You’re comfortable using Google Sheets and Excel to manage and review onboarding data and documentation.

• You thrive in a startup environment where change is constant, and you’re always looking for ways to improve processes.

Key Responsibilities

• Customer Due Diligence: Conduct KYC/KYB checks on new customers and businesses to ensure compliance with internal policies and regulatory requirements.

• Documentation Review: Verify and analyze customer-submitted documentation, such as IDs, corporate registrations, and ownership structures.

• Ongoing Monitoring: Help track customer risk profiles and support periodic reviews to maintain accurate and up-to-date information.

• Policy Support: Assist in refining onboarding and due diligence processes to align with evolving compliance standards.

• Cross-Team Collaboration: Work closely with operations, legal, and compliance to ensure a seamless onboarding experience.

• Reporting & Recordkeeping: Maintain thorough and organized records to support internal audits and regulatory reviews.

• Issue Escalation: Identify and escalate red flags or unusual patterns for further review.

Why You Should Be Excited About This Role

• Play a key role in maintaining the trust and security of a growing fintech platform.

• Gain hands-on experience in KYC/KYB processes and fintech compliance in a fast-paced environment.

• Work closely with a team that values clarity, speed, and data-driven thinking.

• Help shape and improve the customer onboarding journey at an early stage.

• Learn and grow alongside a supportive team that values professional development and impact.

Why Join Keep?

• We’re building a modern financial ecosystem for SMBs, starting with credit, spend management, and global accounts.

• Be part of a remote-friendly, inclusive culture that values autonomy, collaboration, and excellence.

• Work with people who love solving complex problems and celebrating wins together.

• Help us build the infrastructure for the future of small business banking.

Why This Might Not Be a Good Fit

• If you prefer rigid structures and detailed instructions for every task, our fast-moving, autonomous environment might feel uncomfortable.

• If you’re uncomfortable with evolving responsibilities or ambiguous problems, the pace of change here may be challenging.

• If you prefer working in isolation without team input, our collaborative culture may not be the best match.

• If you’re not excited about asking questions, learning quickly, and suggesting improvements, this role might not be a fit.
