Job Overview
Blockchain Compliance Analyst
Bhutan | Full-time
Nansen is a leading AI-powered blockchain intelligence platform, trusted by crypto traders, investors, and builders worldwide. We've gone from being the leader in onchain analytics to the leader in agentic trading — and our compliance program needs to keep pace.
Our mission: Surface the signal and create winners.
What you'll do at Nansen
Compliance at Nansen isn't about checklists. It's about understanding how money moves onchain — and catching what doesn't add up.
• Conduct blockchain forensics: trace fund flows, identify risk patterns, and assess exposure to designated risk categories across chains
• As part of our AML/CFT program, run transaction monitoring for clients: investigate alerts from on-chain monitoring systems, perform end-to-end case investigations — gather data, review KYC/customer profiles, analyze counterparties and wallets, document rationale, and recommend closure or escalation
• Build, monitor, and maintain the compliance automations that keep these programs running at scale
• Write clear, structured reports that communicate findings to internal and external stakeholders
• Contribute to internal training by sharing typologies, red flags, and case learnings — and help drive continuous improvement in monitoring quality and efficiency
• Stay current on regulatory developments, enforcement actions, and financial crime trends affecting crypto/onchain businesses
What we're looking for
• Genuine curiosity about how blockchains work — not just conceptually, but mechanically
• Analytical mindset: able to identify patterns, connect disparate data points, and ask the right questions
• Attention to detail combined with the ability to see the bigger picture
• Strong written communication: you can make complex findings readable
• Takes ownership and runs without waiting to be asked
Nice to have
• Experience with blockchain analytics tools and explorers (e.g. Nansen, Etherscan, Chainalysis, Elliptic)
• Familiarity with AML frameworks or financial crime compliance
• SQL or Python skills
• Prior exposure to DeFi protocols, wallets, or exchange flows
New graduates welcome
You don't need years of experience. A degree in artificial intelligence, blockchain, cybersecurity, finance, accounting, economics, business, or a related field is a plus — but what matters more is that you're sharp, curious, and want to learn fast from inside a crypto-native AI company.
What we offer our crew
• Competitive salary. Meaningful equity. Real ownership in what you build.
• Annual company retreat and team off-sites in one of our offices: Singapore, Bangkok, London, and Oslo — flights and accommodation covered
• Unlimited AI tokens — Claude, OpenAI, whatever helps you move fast
• Your own OpenClaw for work
• Nansen Pro account — full access to the most detailed onchain data in the market
• A team that started as data engineers and data scientists, now 80+ builders. Your craft is respected here.
• Speed, ownership, curiosity, courage. These aren't values on a wall — they're how we run.
• A front-row seat — and a hand in building — the next chapter of finance
