Our only careers site ispaxos.com/careers, and we only recruit via @paxos.comemail. Details below.\n___\nAbout Paxos\nToday’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky - supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it.\nWe’re on a mission to open the world’s financial system to everyone by enabling the instant movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. For over a decade, we’ve built blockchain infrastructure that tokenizes, custodies, trades and settles assets for the world's leading financial institutions, like PayPal, Venmo, Mastercard, Interactive Brokers and Charles Schwab.\nAbout the role\nAs a Compliance Associate, you will help safeguard the integrity of Paxos’ digital asset ecosystem through hands-on monitoring and investigations. You will support “in the wild” monitoring of Paxos-issued stablecoins, assist with complex blockchain investigations, and contribute to information sharing with law enforcement agencies and regulatory bodies.\nYou will work closely with senior team members to develop deep expertise in digital asset compliance, gain exposure to cutting-edge blockchain analytics tools, and build skills in financial crime investigations and SAR/STR reporting.\nWhat you'll do\nMonitor activity across Paxos-issued stablecoins using blockchain analytics tools, triaging alerts and escalating higher-risk activity to senior investigators as appropriate.\n\nConduct first-line investigations into potential suspicious activity, synthesizing KYC, transactional, and open-source information into clear case files and recommendations.\n\nSupport quarterly forensic reviews of stablecoin transactions to identify trends, typologies, and emerging risks, documenting findings for leadership and auditors.\n\nAssist with the intake and management of internal referrals, collaborating with real-time monitoring, product, legal, and other cross-functional stakeholders to resolve complex cases.\n\nHelp maintain information-sharing workflows with law enforcement agencies, regulators, and industry partners, ensuring timely and well-documented responses.\n\nDraft clear, well-structured investigation summaries, SAR/STR supporting documentation, and case narratives that meet regulatory and internal quality standards.\n\nUse AI tools to speed up investigative workflows (e.g., triage, data summarization, drafting), while maintaining ownership and accountability for final decisions and outputs.\n\nContribute to continuous improvement of procedures, playbooks, and training materials for transaction monitoring, investigations, and reporting.\n\nParticipate in the team’s rotating weekend/on-call coverage and occasional travel to support training, audits, or regulatory meetings, as needed for the role.\n\nAbout you\nExperience: 2+ years of experience in compliance, financial crime investigations, AML, sanctions, law enforcement, or a related risk function (experience with digital assets is a plus).\n\nInvestigations skills: Comfort analyzing large volumes of transactional data, identifying red flags, and structuring end-to-end investigations, including SAR/STR considerations.\n\nBlockchain / digital asset interest: Exposure to blockchain analytics tools (e.g., transaction tracing, wallet clustering) or a demonstrated interest and aptitude to learn them quickly.\n\nRegulatory & law enforcement exposure: Experience working with information-sharing protocols, subpoenas, or other law-enforcement/regulatory requests is strongly preferred.\n\nWriting & documentation: Proven ability to produce clear, concise, and well-organized investigative reports and documentation that meet regulatory and internal standards.\n\nAI enablement: Demonstrated experience using AI tools to improve how you work (e.g., research, drafting, quality checks) or a strong willingness to adopt them in daily workflows.\n\nMindset & working style: Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and operate in a fast-paced, highly regulated environment.\n\nEducation: Bachelor’s degree in finance, criminal justice, law, data/analytics, or a related field-or equivalent professional experience in investigations or financial crime compliance.\n\nImportant Notice for Paxos Applicants\n Fraudulent accounts sometimes pose as Paxos recruiters on LinkedIn and other platforms, and fake websites sometimes impersonate our careers site.
