Join a global digital asset and financial technology environment in a role focused on maintaining robust compliance operations across client onboarding, transaction monitoring, and due diligence. Reporting to the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), you will support the review and approval of low- and medium-risk client accounts while escalating higher-risk matters when necessary. You will oversee onboarding workflows, monitor ongoing client activity, and help ensure that client, vendor, banking partner, and counterparty reviews are completed accurately and on time. The position also involves reviewing fiat transactions, wallet and bank whitelisting requests, and Know Your Transaction (KYT) alerts. You will collaborate closely with Business Development and Compliance teams while maintaining clear documentation and reporting. This is a remote, full-time opportunity for a detail-oriented compliance professional comfortable working in a fast-paced digital asset environment and aligned with EST business hours.

• Oversee the client maintenance pipeline, ensuring periodic reviews, document updates, and re-screenings are completed on schedule and without backlogs.

• Manage due diligence reviews for new and existing vendors, banking partners, and counterparties.

• Prepare regular compliance reports for the CCO, covering outstanding items, account backlogs, pending reviews, and emerging risk areas.

• Conduct first-level reviews of fiat transaction activity, identify and document potentially suspicious patterns, and escalated relevant cases.

• Manage the end-to-end client onboarding workflow, coordinating with Business Development and Compliance teams to keep applications progressing efficiently.

• Perform initial reviews of wallet whitelisting submissions in Reactor, elevate high-risk wallets, and maintain supporting documentation in ShareFile.

• Conduct required checks for bank whitelisting and store relevant documentation and review outputs in the appropriate ShareFile folders.

• Review and manage Know Your Transaction (KYT) alerts as part of the transaction monitoring process.

• Handle alerts generated through ongoing client monitoring and ensure appropriate follow-up, documentation, and escalation.

Requirements:

• At least 2 years of professional experience in compliance or a related field.

• Previous experience in the cryptocurrency or digital asset industry.

• Hands-on experience with KYC/KYB, AML, client due diligence, and ongoing monitoring processes.

• Experience reviewing transaction monitoring or KYT alerts, identifying potentially suspicious activity, and escalating cases appropriately.

• Familiarity with Chainalysis and its use in compliance reviews or investigations.

• Experience with compliance case management, documentation, and escalation procedures.

• Advanced English proficiency, with the ability to communicate effectively in a professional environment.

• Strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple compliance reviews and processes simultaneously.

• Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and maintain accurate records.

• Availability to work Monday to Friday in alignment with EST business hours.
