What role at gs…

Absolutely, if it’s in the regulatory role as well (e.g., compliance). Will be harder to move into another area unless you have good referral(s) for it. Now, if you’re aiming to transition to IB at GS, well your chance is essentially zero unless you first move to IB at a smaller boutique firm, get into a good grad school and then move to GS.

Bear in mind, my comment is based on the very limited info you’ve given.

Honestly, big investment banks look to hire people with all sorts of backgrounds, even those completely unrelated to finance. So I’d say apply and see what happens!
