About the Role
We are in search of a seasoned compliance and financial crime expert to play a pivotal role in shaping and expanding our initiatives in anti-money laundering, virtual asset compliance, and blockchain risk management. This role necessitates understanding compliance across traditional financial institutions and virtual asset service providers. The ideal candidate will be adept at navigating regulation, financial crime prevention, blockchain analytics, and commercial strategy. As a senior subject matter expert, the individual will elevate the company's compliance capabilities, provide guidance to financial institutions and VASPs, and establish credibility with regulators, law enforcement, clients, and industry collaborators.
About You
The perfect fit for this role is a pragmatic and business-oriented compliance leader with extensive experience in AML, financial crime, and virtual assets. The candidate should have a background either within traditional financial institutions or closely working with VASPs, emphasizing the variances between conventional transaction monitoring and risks associated with blockchain-based financial activities. The individual should feel equally comfortable analyzing complex financial crime cases, designing AML frameworks, advising senior management, engaging with regulators, and educating stakeholders on blockchain risk.
Responsibilities
- Enhance and develop AML frameworks, virtual asset compliance strategies, sanctions, risk assessments, transaction monitoring, and investigation protocols.
- Offer guidance to financial institutions and VASPs on virtual asset compliance, regulatory standards, and financial crime risks in connection with blockchain technology.
- Stay updated on regulatory changes and translate them into actionable compliance guidance and product specifications.
- If applicable, act as MLRO or support the designated MLRO with suspicious activity reviews and regulatory reporting.
- Collaborate with product development, engineering, business development teams, as well as regulators, law enforcement, and other industry affiliates.
Requirements
- Previous experience as an MLRO, Chief Compliance Officer, Head of Financial Crime, or in a similar senior compliance capacity.
- Demonstrated expertise in AML, financial crime, sanctions, transaction monitoring, regulatory compliance and reporting, and virtual asset financial crime risks.
- Hands-on practice with blockchain analytics, KYT, wallet screening, or similar on-chain compliance tools.
- Strong communication skills and possession of CAMS or equivalent AML certification.
Bonus Points
Experience managing the AML program of a regulated entity, VASP licensing, regulatory examinations, or remediation.
Established networks with regulators, law enforcement personnel, banks, exchanges, or others in the virtual asset sector.
The expected annual base salary range for this position in the United States is $150,000 to $220,000. Compensation for candidates outside the United States will be determined based on location, experience, and qualifications.
Additional Information
- The company is an equal opportunity employer and considers applicants with criminal histories in line with relevant regulations.
- Certification, recognition, and experience supporting diversity initiatives are encouraged.
Please Note:
- AI tools may be utilized in the hiring process for aspects including application review, resume analysis, response assessment, and identification of potential inconsistencies or verification cues in application materials. These tools support the recruitment team but human judgment remains paramount in final hiring decisions. For more details on data processing, kindly reach out to the company.

Operations Assistant
Full time
Remote
About the Role
We're looking for an Operations Assistant to work closely with our VP of Operations and help keep the company organized and running smoothly.
A big part of this role is taking things off the team's plate. You'll be working on documents, organizing files, keeping information up to date, writing and maintaining internal documentation, doing research, following up on tasks, and helping with whatever operational work needs to get done.
We're a lean team, so this is not a role where you'll be given one task and wait for the next one. There will be a lot of different things coming your way. Some will be routine, some will be completely new. We need someone who can figure things out, stay organized, and follow through without needing to be managed every step of the way.
We're also still in the process of bringing in investors, so we're keeping the team lean and being thoughtful about hiring. We're looking for someone who can be genuinely useful across different areas of the business and grow with the company.
Responsibilities
Work directly with the VP of Operations on day-to-day operational tasks
Create, organize, update, and maintain company documents and files
Keep Google Drive and other company folders clean, organized, and easy to navigate
Write and maintain SOPs, process documents, internal guides, and other documentation
Take information from meetings, chats, notes, and conversations and turn it into clear documentation
Maintain spreadsheets, trackers, reports, and other internal records
Help keep tasks, deadlines, and follow-ups organized
Research different topics and put together useful summaries and information
Help coordinate with team members and follow up on things that need to get done
Help improve the way we organize information and run internal processes
Assist with onboarding materials and other internal resources
Take on one-off projects and administrative tasks as needed
Handle confidential company information responsibly
Requirements
1+ years of experience in operations, administration, executive assistance, project coordination, or a similar role
Very organized and detail-oriented
Strong written English and comfortable writing clear documentation
Comfortable working with Google Docs, Sheets, Drive, and similar tools
Good at organizing large amounts of information and files
Able to manage multiple tasks without losing track of details
Comfortable working independently and figuring things out
Reliable and good at following through
Comfortable in a remote and fast-moving environment
Willing to do whatever needs to be done to keep things moving
Nice to Have
Experience working directly with a founder, executive, or operations team
Experience writing SOPs or internal documentation
Familiarity with Notion, Slack, ClickUp, Asana, Airtable, or similar tools
Good spreadsheet skills
Experience at a startup or small company
Comfortable using AI tools to help with research, writing, organization, and repetitive work
Experience in crypto, Web3, fintech, trading, or financial services
Who This Is For
This role is a good fit if you're naturally organized and like getting things done.
If someone sends you 20 files and says "please organize these," you should be able to figure out a sensible system and get it done.
If a process keeps coming up but nobody has documented it, you should be comfortable writing it down.
If you notice something is missing or could be done better, we want you to speak up and fix it.
We're looking for someone dependable, practical, and easy to work with. You don't need to know everything coming in. You just need to be willing to learn, take ownership, and get the work done.
