At Gusto, we're on a mission to grow the small business economy. We handle the hard stuff—like payroll, health insurance, 401(k)s, and HR—so owners can focus on their craft and customers. With teams in Denver, San Francisco, and New York, we’re proud to support more than 400,000 small businesses across the country, and we’re building a workplace that represents and celebrates the customers we serve. Our mission is to create a world where work empowers a better life, and it starts right here at Gusto. That’s why we’re committed to building a collaborative and inclusive workplace, both physically and virtually.
About The Role
Gusto is looking for a Technical Lead – Financial Crime Compliance Oversight to join our Financial Crime Compliance Oversight & Advisory organization. This role is responsible for the technical delivery and enablement of financial crime oversight capabilities, ensuring that the data, tooling, automation, and integrations supporting oversight are reliable, scalable, and audit-ready. This role operates at the intersection of financial crime compliance, engineering enablement, data infrastructure, and responsible automation and AI governance. You will translate oversight requirements into technical specifications, own dashboards and metrics pipelines, coordinate delivery across Engineering and Product partners, and drive the implementation of monitoring, reporting, and vendor integrations that underpin the oversight program.
About The Team
The Financial Crime Compliance Oversight & Advisory team is responsible for second-line oversight of financial crime risk across Gusto’s products, jurisdictions, and regulatory obligations. The team designs and monitors controls, supports audits and exams, oversees remediation efforts, and partners closely with Operations, Product, Engineering, Risk, Legal, and external stakeholders. As Gusto grows, effective oversight increasingly depends on strong technical foundations. This role exists to ensure those foundations are built and maintained intentionally.
Here’s What You’ll Do Day-to-day
- Translate financial crime oversight requirements into technical specifications and delivery plans, enabling Engineering teams to build and maintain automated and AI-enabled controls.
- Own financial crime oversight dashboards and metrics, ensuring data quality, automation, and the accuracy of weekly and monthly reporting used to monitor AI- and rules-based controls.
- Support financial crime (AML, EDD/KYC, Fraud) rule tuning, threshold updates, and AI-enabled control changes across internal systems and vendor implementations.
- Lead the build, rollout, and stabilization of oversight tooling and third-party integrations, including AI-powered transaction monitoring, screening, and case management systems.
- Implement logging, monitoring, and control instrumentation that support audits, regulatory exams, and governance of automated and AI-enabled controls.
- Lead the technical delivery of remediation-driven updates, ensuring AI- and automation-related changes produce reliable, reusable evidence for audits and exams.
- Partner directly with Product and Engineering counterparts to coordinate integrations, resolve dependencies, and embed AI-aware oversight requirements into system design and delivery.
Here’s What We’re Looking For
- 6+ years of experience in technical program delivery, engineering enablement, or compliance-related technology roles within a regulated FinTech, payments, or financial services environment.
- Experience supporting automated, rules-based, or AI-enabled systems in regulated environments particularly AML transaction monitoring and screening systems.
- Experience translating regulatory or oversight requirements into scalable technical solutions.
- Strong understanding of data pipelines, dashboards, system integrations, and monitoring infrastructure.
- Experience delivering and maintaining third-party vendor integrations.
- Ability to manage cross-functional initiatives across Engineering, Product, Data, and Compliance teams.
- Strong communication skills and comfort working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- A builder mindset with strong execution discipline.
Nice to have
- Experience supporting audits, exams, or regulatory remediation efforts.
- Familiarity with AML, fraud, sanctions, or broader financial crime programs.
- Working knowledge of SQL, data visualization, or automation tools like Gumloop.
- CAMS Certification.
Work Location & Compensation

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Technician Jobs at Gusto Jobs
Align your credentials to accounting tech requirements
Gusto's Technician roles support payroll and accounting software platforms, so certifications in systems like payroll processing, tax compliance tools, or enterprise HR software strengthen your application beyond a general technical background.
Target roles labeled implementation or support technician
Gusto posts Technician openings under several titles tied to onboarding and platform support. Searching for implementation specialist or support technician alongside your core skills surfaces roles most likely to qualify as specialty occupations under H-1B criteria.
Use Migrate Mate to filter Gusto openings by visa type
Gusto sponsors multiple visa categories for technical roles. Use Migrate Mate to filter Technician listings specifically by the visa type you need, so you're only applying to positions where your sponsorship pathway is already confirmed.
Confirm your role qualifies as a specialty occupation
USCIS requires H-1B positions to demand a specific bachelor's degree or higher. For Technician roles in accounting software, document how your degree in computer science, information systems, or accounting technology directly maps to the job duties Gusto lists.
Request the LCA before accepting a written offer
Gusto must file a Labor Condition Application with DOL certifying your offered wage meets the prevailing wage for your location before your H-1B petition goes to USCIS. Confirming this step is in progress protects your timeline before you give notice elsewhere.
Plan your start date around the H-1B cap timeline
Cap-subject H-1B petitions have an October 1 start date, so if you're hired outside the cap-exempt window, your offer needs to account for a wait of up to six months. Discuss this with Gusto's HR team early so your onboarding plan reflects the actual available start date.

Find Technician at Gusto JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Gusto sponsor H-1B visas for Technicians?
Yes, Gusto sponsors H-1B visas for Technician roles. The role must qualify as a specialty occupation under USCIS standards, meaning it requires a specific bachelor's degree or its equivalent in a relevant field such as computer science, information systems, or accounting technology. Gusto's technical functions supporting payroll and HR platforms typically meet that threshold, but your specific job duties and degree field will be assessed during the petition.
Which visa types are commonly used for Technician roles at Gusto?
Gusto sponsors several visa categories for technical positions, including the H-1B for specialty occupation workers and the E-3 exclusively for Australian citizens. Employment-based Green Card pathways through EB-2 and EB-3 are also part of Gusto's sponsorship activity, which is relevant for Technicians looking at long-term immigration options rather than just an initial work visa. The right category depends on your nationality, qualifications, and the specific role's requirements.
How do I apply for Technician jobs at Gusto?
You can browse and apply for Technician openings at Gusto through Migrate Mate, which filters roles by visa sponsorship type so you can confirm sponsorship availability before applying. When you apply, tailor your resume to Gusto's accounting and payroll infrastructure context, emphasizing any experience with HR software platforms, tax systems, or technical onboarding. Gusto's hiring process for technical roles typically includes a recruiter screen, technical assessment, and panel interviews.
What qualifications does Gusto expect for sponsored Technician positions?
Gusto's Technician roles in the accounting and HR technology space generally expect a bachelor's degree in a relevant technical or business field alongside hands-on experience with software implementation, payroll systems, or enterprise platforms. Because sponsored roles must meet USCIS specialty occupation standards, a degree that directly aligns with the job duties carries more weight than broad technical experience alone. Familiarity with compliance workflows and small business accounting tools is a recurring theme in Gusto's technical job descriptions.
How do I manage the timeline between a Gusto offer and my visa filing?
Once Gusto extends a conditional offer, your employer needs to obtain a certified Labor Condition Application from DOL before filing the H-1B petition with USCIS. If you're subject to the H-1B cap, the earliest employment start date is October 1, and registrations open in March. For E-3 applicants, there's no lottery and appointments at Australian consulates can move faster, often within a few weeks of receiving your certified LCA and offer letter.
