Senior / Head AML Officer (Crypto/AML)

We need a strong figure who knows how to navigate the complexities of global compliance — not in theory, but in practice.

Someone who understands that in the world of crypto-processing infrastructure, AML isn't just a checkbox — it’s a strategic pillar that enables high-value contracts and long-term partnerships in niche markets.
 

We are building next-gen infrastructure where the product is deep and the regulatory landscape is constantly shifting. Your goal isn’t just to monitor — it’s to build a resilient compliance framework that allows the business to grow safely and sustainably for years to come.

    Responsibilities

• Build the AML department and all internal operational procedures from the ground up.
• Design, implement, and maintain AML/CTF policies, Risk-Based Approach (RBA) frameworks, and all supporting documentation.
• Oversee and optimize KYC/KYB workflows, including ODD (Ongoing Due Diligence) and EDD (Enhanced Due Diligence) processes.
• Execute and manage crypto transaction monitoring using industry-standard tools like Chainalysis, Elliptic, or Scorechain.
• Prepare SAR/STR filings and serve as the primary point of contact for regulators and auditors.
•  Detect and analyze high-risk patterns, including mixers, layering, and complex fraud schemes.
• Collaborate with Product, Tech, and Legal teams to integrate seamless AML controls into the infrastructure.

• Architect and configure automated AML processes designed to scale with high-volume growth.

• Proven track record of building the AML function from zero is a mandatory requirement.
• Experience in Crypto, Exchanges, FinTech, or Payments is a significant advantage.

• Hands-on experience with tools such as Chainalysis, Elliptic, ComplyAdvantage, or SumSub.
