EMCD is a leading technology company in the crypto industry, best known as the largest mining pool in Eastern Europe. We are expanding globally and building a comprehensive ecosystem of crypto services, including payment infrastructure, custody, mining solutions and enterprise-grade tools for businesses and institutions.

We are looking for a Senior Compliance Officer to strengthen our international compliance function and support operations, product launches and partnerships across multiple jurisdictions. This role is a strong fit for an experienced professional who combines hands-on compliance expertise with sound regulatory judgment and a practical, business-oriented approach.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support company operations in line with AML/CFT, Travel Rule, sanctions, VASP requirements and applicable financial regulation.
  • Develop and update compliance policies, procedures, risk assessments and internal controls covering KYC/KYB, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring/KYT, EDD, Travel Rule and third-party risk.
  • Conduct KYB and due diligence on partners, vendors and other counterparties, assessing corporate structures, UBOs, regulatory status, licences, AML, sanctions and reputational risks.
  • Manage the company’s corporate onboarding with banks, payment institutions, crypto exchanges and other financial partners: prepare KYB documentation and questionnaires, communicate with compliance teams and resolve requests through to completion.
  • Conduct compliance reviews of new products, services, payment channels, partnerships and crypto transaction flows before launch, identifying risks and defining appropriate controls.
  • Assess regulatory risks associated with new jurisdictions, customer segments and operating models.
  • Support EDD, transaction reviews and escalations involving high-risk customers and transactions.
  • Work with external advisers, auditors and banking and payment partners; prepare compliance reports, risk assessments and internal memos for senior management and the Board.
  • Monitor regulatory developments in key jurisdictions and translate relevant changes into practical updates to company processes and controls.

Requirements

  • At least three years of experience in Compliance, AML, Regulatory Compliance or Financial Crime.
  • Experience in crypto, fintech, payments, e-money, brokerage, trading, banking or another regulated financial environment.
  • Strong knowledge of AML/CFT frameworks, the risk-based approach, KYC/KYB, sanctions, PEP and adverse media screening, transaction monitoring and EDD.
  • Practical experience conducting KYB and due diligence on partners, vendors and other counterparties.
  • Experience developing and maintaining compliance policies, procedures, risk assessments and internal controls.
  • Ability to independently assess new products, business models and transaction flows, identify compliance risks and recommend appropriate controls.
  • Understanding of Travel Rule requirements and blockchain analytics/KYT controls.
  • Ability to work independently across Compliance, Legal, Product, Operations, Finance and Management.
  • Strong professional English at B2+ level or higher, including written communication, documentation and discussions with international partners.
  • Strong analytical thinking, attention to detail and sound judgment, with the confidence to defend compliance decisions and propose practical risk mitigation measures.

Challenges

  • Working across multiple jurisdictions with different regulatory frameworks in a rapidly evolving crypto/VASP environment.
  • Supporting licensing initiatives and the launch of new legal entities, products and partnerships.
  • Integrating compliance into product development and operational processes while balancing regulatory obligations with business priorities.
  • Making timely, well-reasoned decisions with incomplete information and providing clear, actionable guidance.
  • Maintaining an independent compliance position under business or deadline pressure while helping teams find workable solutions.

What We Offer

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
