AML, KYC & Financial Crime Jobs
Anti-money-laundering, KYC, and financial crime prevention roles in digital asset firms.
KYC and AML for tokenized assets
Before an investor can hold a tokenized security, they must pass identity verification and eligibility checks. AML and KYC professionals in this space build and operate the onboarding journeys, screening processes, and ongoing monitoring that make that possible — while satisfying the obligations that apply to regulated financial products.
Because tokenized assets can move digitally, financial crime prevention also extends to transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, and the controls that prevent restricted parties from receiving tokens.
Specialised roles
KYC onboarding analysts and managers, AML investigators, sanctions screening specialists, financial crime compliance officers, and the product and operations staff who build the tooling behind these processes. These roles exist at tokenization platforms, custodians, exchanges, and compliance service providers.

Are AML roles in digital assets different from traditional finance?
The core obligations are similar, but digital assets add on-chain monitoring, wallet-level screening, and the need to coordinate controls between off-chain systems and permissioned token transfers.
