About the Job

Requirements

A degree in a STEM, numerate, or analytical discipline.
A genuine interest in digital assets and their place in institutional finance, demonstrated through reading, building, following, or trying relevant things.
Comfort with financial data and the discipline to complete checks properly, including routine checks.
Clear, concise written communication, and sound judgment when checking AI-generated output.

Responsibilities

Run daily operational checks and controls that protect client assets, escalating anything that appears wrong.
Reconcile assets, fiat, and staking rewards; identify breaks and pursue them to resolution.
Support Travel Rule compliance by keeping records accurate and regulatory reporting on track.
Help deliver new products, including off-exchange settlement, and test new custody solutions before clients use them.
Improve processes by redesigning work that is unnecessarily slow or manual, including using AI tooling and small automations.

Desired Qualifications

An internship, placement, or up to two years of experience in financial services, operations, audit, or a control function.
Exposure to reconciliation, settlement, or regulatory reporting.
Python, SQL, or familiarity with on-chain data and block explorers.

Your key responsibilities

You will build to full ownership of these over your first few months, working alongside an experienced member of the Transaction Operations team.

Run the daily operational checks and controls that protect client assets, escalating anything that looks wrong.
Reconcile assets, fiat and staking rewards, finding breaks and chasing them to resolution.
Support Travel Rule compliance, keeping records accurate and regulatory reporting on track.
Help deliver new products, including off-exchange settlement and test new custody solutions before clients touch them.
Constant improvement mindset. Where a process is slower or more manual than it needs to be, re-design it, AI tooling and small automations included.

Skills and attributes for success

Judgement is key in a control environment - and that's most visible in how an Analyst reasons through something that doesn't look right.

You reason from first principles. Faced with an unfamiliar problem, you work out what must be true rather than waiting to be told.
You notice when something is off, the number that does not fit, the balance that moved when nothing should have.
You ask why a control exists, not just how to complete it.
You are intellectually honest. "I do not know yet" and "I got that wrong" come early rather than late. Here, that is a strength.
You show your working. Your conclusions arrive with the evidence behind them.
You are comfortable with ambiguity. This market and its regulation are still taking shape; you will hit questions with no documented answer and need to make a defensible call and flag it.

To qualify for the role, you must have

A degree in a STEM, numerate or analytical discipline.
Real interest in digital assets and their place in institutional finance, evidenced by what you have read, built, followed or tried.
Comfort with financial data and the discipline to complete a check properly on the days it feels routine.
Clear, concise written communication - and, when using AI tools, the judgement to check the output rather than trust it.

Nice to have

An internship, placement, or up to two years in financial services, operations, audit or a control function.
Exposure to reconciliation, settlement or regulatory reporting.
Python, SQL, or familiarity with on-chain data and block explorers.
