Skills
About the Role
You'll help build the intelligence data moat beneath every Chainalysis product across the crypto-services ecosystem — end to end. You'll collect the data, analyze it, and produce attribution. You won't work one entity at a time; you'll build and tune the AI and automation that turn your analysis into attribution at scale. You'll join a fast-moving, globally distributed team of analysts collaborating across time zones, async and in real time.
Requirements
- 2+ years of analytical or investigative experience (intelligence, law enforcement, cyber, fraud, compliance, or research)
- Strong research instincts and analytic rigor
- Initiative to spot what needs investigating and go after it without waiting to be told
- Adaptability and comfort with ambiguity in a fast-moving space
- Enthusiasm for building with AI
- Comfort working with data, and curiosity about crypto and blockchain
Responsibilities
- Investigate and attribute activity across the crypto-services ecosystem, connecting on-chain activity to real-world entities.

- Become a certified cryptocurrency professional across all Chainalysis certifications.
