You will work closely with cross-functional teams including product, legal, compliance, and risk to uphold Binance's commitment to regulatory standards and industry best practices in the fast-evolving crypto ecosystem.

Responsibilities

  • Monitor global regulatory developments impacting asset governance and crypto asset compliance. Provide training and guidance to business units to ensure awareness and adherence to evolving requirements.
  • Monitor anonymity enhanced coins listed on the Binance platform, keep accurate records as to their usage, identify AML risks relating to their usage and provide mitigation advice to compliance leadership.
  • Periodically review internal definitions for anonymity enhanced coins and update in line with global regulatory requirements and expectations.
  • Ensure assets listed on the platform have sufficient transaction monitoring and coordinate with relevant teams to ensure monitoring coverage is implemented where monitoring is found to be insufficient.
  • Support investigations related to suspicious activities involving tokens and coordinate with internal and external stakeholders, including regulators and law enforcement, as necessary.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with internal teams and external partners to promote a culture of compliance and facilitate efficient resolution of compliance issues.
  • Assist in enhancing compliance frameworks, tools, and automation to improve efficiency and effectiveness of token governance processes.

Requirements

  • Minimum 5+ years of experience in financial services compliance, preferably within crypto, fintech, broker-dealer, or asset management environments.
  • Strong understanding of financial crime risk management, including AML, sanctions, fraud, and market abuse controls.
  • Deep knowledge of tokenomics, crypto asset types, and blockchain technology.
  • Experience with token listing and delisting processes, or similar product governance functions, is highly desirable.
  • Up-to-date knowledge of global regulatory developments affecting crypto assets and digital tokens.
  • Excellent analytical skills with the ability to assess complex risks and develop practical compliance solutions.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, capable of working effectively across diverse teams and regions.
