Join the premier crypto-native accounting firm recognized by Forbes as a Best-In-State Top CPA.

We're hiring a Junior Data Analyst to support forensic blockchain data reconstruction for tax, audit and financial reporting.

This is not BI, dashboarding, SQL, or data science work.

It is high-volume, repetitive, accuracy-driven forensic digital asset processing inside an accounting firm.

We serve high-net-worth crypto investors, protocols, startups, and blockchain enabled businesses with elite tax, accounting, and advisory services.

We are looking for forensic-style data thinkers who want to build mastery in digital asset analysis with direct impact on accounting, tax, and compliance deliverables.

Camuso CPA is not hiring seat-fillers.

We're building a new wave of crypto-native operators from the ground up.

You will clean messy datasets, trace wallet-to-wallet fund flows, rebuild transaction histories, categorize thousands of crypto transactions and create audit-ready outputs.

Work is rule-based, SOP-driven, and requires strong written documentation.

You must enjoy deep-focus work, financial logic, and precision.

Why This Role is Rare

You'll work in the most complex data ecosystem in modern finance : on-chain transaction tracing and high-volume digital asset analytics.

You'll work directly with a Forbes-recognized U.S. firm, not through an agency or middleman.

You'll gain the skills few global analysts possess : parsing blockchain datasets, tracing fund flows across chains, identifying wallet behavior patterns, and decoding crypto financial activity at scale.

You'll be mentored directly by elite talent (accountants and analysts) in both the U.S. and South Africa and have the opportunity to earn your way into higher roles as we grow.

The Role

Junior Data Analysts (Crypto Cleanup + Web3 Accounting)

This is a full-time, remote contractor role.

You will work across :

Crypto investors (traders, LPs, NFT collectors, DeFi users)
Web3 companies (DAOs, protocols, exchanges, Web3 startups)
Digital founders (SaaS, eComm, agencies, content creators)

Primary focus will be crypto cleanup, categorization, and reconciliation.

You may also be assigned web3 accounting and digital founder engagements depending on capacity and workload.

All new hires begin with internal crypto cleanup and reporting tasks to validate work quality, communication, and reliability before advancing to higher-scope work.

Core Responsibilities

Analyze high-volume on-chain datasets (K+ transactions, + wallets)
Trace fund flows across chains, bridges, CEXs, and wallets
Perform data cleaning, normalization, categorization, and reconciliation
Use blockchain explorers (Etherscan, Solscan, BTC explorers, etc.)
Identify wallet patterns, tagging anomalies, and transaction behavior
Support preparation of analytical datasets for accounting & tax reporting
Work with CSV exports, API pulls, and raw blockchain data
Build clear, structured working papers and documentation
Follow SOPs and replicate analytical processes consistently
Participate in daily team check-ins

This is NOT a BI, dashboarding, SQL warehouse, or corporate analytics role.

Our analysts work in a forensic, accounting-adjacent environment where the primary responsibilities include :

tracing on-chain fund flows
cleaning and normalizing raw transactional datasets
structuring large datasets into audit-ready outputs
identifying patterns in blockchain activity
supporting accounting & tax workflows with accurate data

If you are motivated by :

transactional accuracy
forensic analysis
pattern recognition
structured SOP-driven workflows

making messy data clean and reliable

You enjoy structured, routine, repetitive analytical work and take pride in accuracy, not creative analytics or open-ended projects.

If you prefer :

dashboards
visualization projects
UX / product analytics
AI experimentation
high-level strategy presentations

This role is not a fit.

This role is forensic data work within an accounting firm.

You must genuinely want to build expertise in accounting-side data integrity, transaction tracing, and reconciliation not business analytics or modeling.

It is ideal for detail-focused thinkers who enjoy precision work, pattern detection, anomaly hunting and structured workflows.

We require a minimum 2–4 year commitment.

If you see this as a stepping stone to BI, SQL engineering, or data science, you will not enjoy this role.

80% of this role is repetitive forensic transaction analysis, cleanup, and reconciliation.

If you prefer variety, creative analysis, or changing problem sets, this is not a fit.

Client Types & Tools

Crypto investors: Traders, DeFi users, token investors
Web3 businesses: Startups, DAOs, protocols, exchanges
Digital founders: SaaS, agencies, eComm

You’ll use

CoinTracking, Cryptoworth, Bitwave, Cryptio, Koinly, QuickBooks Online, Xero and many other related softwares
Blockchain explorers (Etherscan, Solscan, Bitcoin, Tezos, etc.)
Excel

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s in Data Science, Statistics, Information Systems, Accounting or Finance (or in final year)
Strong attention to detail and follow-through

Comfort working with large, unformatted datasets
Experience following SOPs and submitting formatted work
Must Be Able to :

Clean and structure raw data sets

Trace on-chain fund flows

Clean up years of crypto data and categorize by transaction type

Work with CSVs, multi-sheet files, and unformatted data

Learn blockchain explorer workflows quickly

Note on Hours & Workflow

Due to our firm's rapid growth and the dynamic nature of the cryptocurrency and Web3 industry, the role will require flexibility and a willingness to commit to longer hours during peak periods.

This includes tax season and other high-demand times throughout the year.

We are a fast-growing firm still in start-up mode, which means roles and responsibilities may evolve as we scale.
