About Paxos

Paxos is on a mission to enable the movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. Today’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. 

As a regulated blockchain infrastructure company, we use technology to tokenize, custody, trade, and settle assets for enterprise clients like PayPal, Bank of America, and Interactive Brokers. Paxos is a top-funded blockchain company, with more than $500 million in total funding from leading investors like OakHC/FT, Founders Fund, PayPal Ventures, and Declaration Partners. Together, we empower today’s financial leaders to build a more open, trusted economy.

As a Global Investigations Compliance Associate, you’ll get to: 

• You will execute all objectives of the entire Compliance program, including transaction monitoring and investigations, client onboarding and customer due diligence, SAR writing, sanctions screening, vendor management, training, etc.
• You will carry out end-to-end investigations on a range of cases triggered from KYC/CDD, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring and blockchain analytics. You will use transactional and other data to identify trends and patterns associated with financial crime risks. 
• You will effectively coordinate with business, operational teams and law enforcement throughout the client customer lifecycle to detect and mitigate financial crime risks. 

Your experience should include:

• You have 5+ years of investigative experience under your belt
• You have a fundamental understanding of anti-money laundering and sanctions regulations.
• You have experience with one or multiple Compliance functions, including transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, client onboarding, KYC, SAR writing, subpoenas, 314b investigations, etc.
• You have strong writing capabilities where deliverables are to be reviewed by regulators, auditors and law enforcement.
• You are comfortable working in a fast-paced and tech-oriented environment within a global team setting.
• You embody our culture and values.
• Experience with Excel, data analytic tools, case management, screening and transaction monitoring systems  is highly preferable.
