Intelligence Analyst

The R&D team at Chainalysis is inspired by solving the hardest technical challenges and building products that establish trust in cryptocurrencies. We're a global organization that thrives on challenging work and doing it alongside exceptionally talented teammates. Our industry evolves rapidly, and our mission is to build a flexible, AI-driven platform that automates entity resolution, optimizes data labeling pipelines, and creates predictive models that identify illicit patterns before they escalate. Our data and solutions have been used to solve some of the world's most high-profile criminal cases and grow consumer access to cryptocurrency safely.

You'll join a fast-moving, globally distributed team of analysts collaborating across time zones - async and in real time. We move fast, hold each other to a high bar, and back each other up across regions.

In this role, you'll:

• Investigate and attribute activity across the crypto-services ecosystem, connecting on-chain activity to real-world entities.
• Proactively surface what's worth investigating - and the automation worth building.
• Build and tune AI workflows that scale your analysis - and handle the edge cases automation can't.
• Drive the data collection and research that keep our attribution comprehensive and fresh.
• Hold a high bar for accuracy, analytic rigor, and documentation.
• Become a certified cryptocurrency professional across all Chainalysis certifications.

We're looking for candidates who have:

• Elite potential - high aptitude, sharp judgment, and a strong work ethic.
• 2+ years of analytical or investigative experience (intelligence, law enforcement, cyber, fraud, compliance, or research).
• Strong research instincts and analytic rigor.
• Initiative - you spot what needs investigating and go after it without waiting to be told.
• Adaptability - comfortable with ambiguity and energized by a fast-moving space; the threats, the tech, and our tooling are always evolving.
• Real enthusiasm for AI - you want to build with it, not just use it.
• Comfort working with data, and curiosity about crypto and blockchain.

AI is not a feature at Chainalysis - it is a new way of working. One that turns instructions into work done, and helps us move faster than the threats we're built to counter, and we expect our employees to take ownership of the output and ensure quality. As the world's most trusted blockchain analytics platform, Chainalysis sits at a rare intersection of proprietary data, regulatory relationships and crypto expertise that makes it uniquely placed to shape and lead the next era of AI-driven intelligence - and we expect everyone here, regardless of role, to be an active part of it. AI fluency is tied directly to how we measure performance and how we plan to win. There is no substitute for your own curiosity. We provide the tools, workflows, and space to experiment - but the expectation is that you develop these capabilities yourself, bring ideas, and collaborate across teams to reinvent the way work gets done. We are not using AI to do less. We are using it to do what was never possible before.

Chainalysis is the blockchain data platform, making it easy to connect the movement of digital assets to real-world services. Powered by deep blockchain data and AI, organizations can investigate illicit activity, manage risk exposure, and develop innovative market solutions built on the industry's most trusted blockchain intelligence. Our mission is to build trust in blockchains, blending safety and security with an unwavering commitment to growth and innovation.

At Chainalysis, we believe that diversity of experience and thought makes us stronger. With both customers and employees around the world, we are committed to ensuring our team reflects the unique communities around us. We're ensuring we keep learning by committing to continually revisit and reevaluate our diversity culture. We encourage applicants across any race, ethnicity, gender/gender expression, age, spirituality, ability, experience and more. If you need any accommodations to make our interview process more accessible to you due to a disability, don't hesitate to let us know. We can't wait to meet you.
