Job description

About Onramp

Onramp Bitcoin is a leading Bitcoin-only financial services company supporting individuals, businesses, and institutions to secure their Bitcoin holdings via our multi-institutional custody solution. We hire passionate people who want to work with a high agency and a fully distributed startup team.

The Role

We need someone who can do substantive compliance analyst work and run compliance as a system — the tooling, workflows, data, and cadence. Most compliance hires can do either. This role needs both. On any given week, you might:

• Investigate a transaction monitoring alert end-to-end, including blockchain analysis and SAR decisioning
• Run a CDD/EDD review on a complex entity client — trust structure, beneficial ownership, source of funds
• Build or refine an AI automation for a recurring compliance task
• Manage Persona KYC configuration and tune rules
• Drive a Vanta evidence gap to closure ahead of our SOC 2 Type II window
• Stand up a new transaction monitoring rule, document the rationale, and operationalize it
• Pull together the data and narrative for a regulator request

What You’ll Do

Compliance Program Execution:

• Transaction monitoring alert review
• CDD/EDD case work, including entity onboarding and periodic reviews
• OFAC and sanctions screening exceptions
• SAR drafting (under CCO sign-off)
• Compliance reporting and metrics

Program Operations:

• Day-to-day administration of our compliance tech stack.
• Evidence collection and control operation for SOC 2.
• Vendor risk assessments
• Procedure maintenance and version control across the compliance library
• Independent review prep
• Regulatory exam document production (we're in an active Title 31 exam right now — you'd plug in immediately)
• Build AI-leveraged workflows that eliminate manual compliance work

What You’ll Bring

Required Experiance & Skills:

• 3–7 years in compliance at a crypto, fintech, MSB, bank, or qualified custodian.
• Direct Bitcoin, digital asset, or fintech compliance experience.
• Hands-on experience with KYC tooling (Persona, Alloy, Sumsub, or similar) and transaction monitoring (Chainalysis, TRM, Elliptic, or comparable)
• Experience working remotely on high agency remote/async teams.
• Strong written communication. You'll draft procedures, exam responses, and client-facing compliance content.
• AI tooling fluency.
• SOC 2 program work — Vanta or equivalent
• ACAMS, CRCM, or CFCS certification

What We Offer

• High agency and first-principles thinkers
• Flat structure, builder-first execution culture
• Mission-driven: Bitcoin only, no altcoins
• Collaborative, transparent, and low-ego
• Remote-first, globally distributed team
