SUNRATE is a global payment and treasury management platform for businesses worldwide. Since its inception in 2016, SUNRATE has been recognised as a leading solution provider and has enabled companies to operate and scale both locally and globally in 190+ countries and regions with its cutting-edge proprietary platform, extensive global network, and robust APIs.

With its global business headquarters in Singapore and offices in Hong Kong, Jakarta, London, and Shanghai, SUNRATE partners with the top global financial institutions, such as Citibank, Standard Chartered, Barclays, J.P. Morgan and is the principal member of both Mastercard and Visa.

As we strengthen our compliance and risk capabilities, we're hiring up to 10 Transaction Monitoring Analysts to join our growing team in Malaysia. This is a critical role in ensuring SUNRATE meets its regulatory obligations and maintains a strong financial crime risk framework. As a Transaction Monitoring Analyst, you will be responsible for reviewing, investigating, and escalating potentially suspicious transactions—contributing directly to the prevention of money laundering, terrorist financing, and other forms of financial crime.

​What you’ll be spending your time on: 

• Review daily transaction alerts generated by SUNRATE’s monitoring systems and assess for potential suspicious activity.
• Conduct detailed investigations and analysis of customer transactions to identify anomalies or unusual patterns.
• Escalate and document suspicious cases with recommendations for further review or filing of Suspicious Transaction Reports (STRs).
• Collaborate with Compliance, Risk, and other relevant departments for case escalation and resolution.
• Support the continuous refinement of transaction monitoring rules and typologies based on emerging risks and regulatory updates.
• Maintain accurate and complete investigation records, ensuring audit-readiness.
• Stay up to date with regulatory requirements, internal policies, and financial crime trends.

​Not a must but a great advantage: 

• 1–3 years of experience in transaction monitoring, AML, or compliance within a financial institution or fintech.
• Strong analytical and investigative skills, with an eye for detail.
• Familiarity with AML regulations and typologies (e.g. layering, structuring, sanctions evasion).
• Previous exposure to and understanding of local (BNM) and international compliance standards (FATF, AMLA, etc).
• Experience working with transaction monitoring systems or case management tools.
• Excellent communication skills in English (both written and spoken).
• Ability to manage a high volume of alerts while maintaining quality and accuracy.
• Certification in AML (e.g. CAMS) is an advantage, but not required.
