Type: Remote - Contract to Full Time Hire
About Onramp
Onramp Bitcoin is a leading Bitcoin-only financial services company supporting individuals, businesses, and institutions to secure their Bitcoin holdings via our multi-institutional custody solution. We hire passionate people who want to work with a high agency and a fully distributed startup team.
The Role
We need someone who can do substantive compliance analyst work and run compliance as a system — the tooling, workflows, data, and cadence. Most compliance hires can do either. This role needs both. On any given week, you might:
- Investigate a transaction monitoring alert end-to-end, including blockchain analysis and SAR decisioning
- Run a CDD/EDD review on a complex entity client — trust structure, beneficial ownership, source of funds
- Build or refine an AI automation for a recurring compliance task
- Manage Persona KYC configuration and tune rules
- Drive a Vanta evidence gap to closure ahead of our SOC 2 Type II window
- Stand up a new transaction monitoring rule, document the rationale, and operationalize it
- Pull together the data and narrative for a regulator request
What You'll Do
Compliance Program Execution:
- Transaction monitoring alert review
- CDD/EDD case work, including entity onboarding and periodic reviews
- OFAC and sanctions screening exceptions
- SAR drafting (under CCO sign-off)

Program Operations:
- Day-to-day administration of our compliance tech stack.
- Evidence collection and control operation for SOC 2.
- Vendor risk assessments
- Procedure maintenance and version control across the compliance library
- Independent review prep
- Regulatory exam document production (we're in an active Title 31 exam right now — you'd plug in immediately)
- Build AI-leveraged workflows that eliminate manual compliance work

- 3–7 years in compliance at a crypto, fintech, MSB, bank, or qualified custodian.
