About Bitrefill
Bitrefill is the world's leading crypto lifestyle platform. We enable millions of users to spend Bitcoin, Lightning Network payments, and other digital assets on gift cards, mobile phone refills, and everyday goods across 190+ countries.
Our long-term mission: let people use crypto as real digital money daily — without registration, login, or traditional banking.
We are now building the Bitrefill crypto card for paying anywhere, anytime.
The Role
We are looking for a Compliance & AML Officer to own global anti-money laundering frameworks, transaction monitoring, and regulatory risk for both our existing gift card/refill business and the upcoming crypto card.
You will be the go-to person for compliance across multiple jurisdictions — balancing user experience (no registration!) with regulatory requirements.
This is not a pure paperwork role. You will build practical, risk-based controls for a fast-moving crypto startup.
What You Will Do
AML Framework – Develop and implement global AML/CFT policies, procedures, and controls for crypto and fiat transactions.
Transaction Monitoring – Set up and oversee monitoring of on-chain crypto payments, Lightning Network transactions, and card operations.
Sanctions & PEP Screening – Manage screening processes across 190+ countries.
Risk Assessment – Conduct periodic risk assessments for products (gift cards, refills, crypto card) and geographies.
Regulatory Reporting – File suspicious activity reports (SARs/STRs) and other required filings.
License & Registration Support – Support the team with crypto licensing and card program compliance (EMI/payment institution requirements).
Internal Training – Train internal teams (support, product, BD) on AML basics and red flags.
External Communication – Liaise with regulators, banking partners, and card scheme compliance teams.
Requirements
3+ years of experience in Compliance / AML, ideally in:
Crypto / VASP (Virtual Asset Service Provider)
Fintech or payments
Card programs (issuing or acquiring)
Strong understanding of FATF recommendations for crypto (Travel Rule, VASP obligations)
Experience with transaction monitoring tools (on-chain and off-chain)
Knowledge of sanctions regimes (OFAC, UN, EU)
Ability to work with risk-based approach — not checkbox compliance
Fluent English (written and spoken)
Nice to Have
Experience with Lightning Network compliance nuances (small-value payments, channel management)
Previous work with gift card or mobile refill businesses
Knowledge of EMI (Electronic Money Institution) licensing
Familiarity with crypto card programs (Visa / Mastercard crypto cards)
Experience in multiple jurisdictions (EU, LATAM, Africa, Asia)
What Makes This Role Unique
You will help design compliance for a no-registration-required crypto product — unusual and challenging.
You will work closely with product and engineering to build automated controls, not just documents.
You will have real ownership — no large compliance teams, no excessive bureaucracy.
Working at Bitrefill
100% remote – work from anywhere
Asynchronous first – deep work, minimal meetings
Time zone overlap – ~4–6 hours with Stockholm (CET)
Startup culture – fast decisions, high responsibility
Compensation & Benefits
Competitive salary (USD/EUR/USDC)
Equity / token options
Fully remote setup
Opportunity to shape compliance from early stage
