About this role

▸about Elliptic — company background

Do you want to be at the forefront of combating crypto-enabled sanctions evasion? Are you excited about leading the intelligence research that helps financial institutions and governments disrupt illicit financial networks? Are you looking for a values-led company that trusts you to own your domain and make a real impact?

The impact you will have:

Join Elliptic's Intelligence team as the go-to subject matter expert (SME) on cryptoasset sanctions. Sitting at Senior level, you will own Elliptic's end-to-end coverage of sanctioned entities, jurisdictions, and evasion typologies, and translate that expertise into high-quality analytical outputs, scalable monitoring processes, and clear internal and external communications.

Your work will directly strengthen the intelligence dataset that underpins our products, helping hundreds of financial institutions, exchanges, and government agencies take defensible sanctions-compliance decisions every day.

You will coach and collaborate with colleagues across the Intelligence function, contribute to cross-functional initiatives with Product, Engineering, and Customer teams, and represent Elliptic's capabilities to clients, regulators, and industry partners.

What you will do:

Serve as the go-to SME on global sanctions regimes, applying your expertise independently to resolve complex analytical questions and produce reliable outputs without requiring senior oversight on domain-level judgements.

Own and document a comprehensive coverage framework for global sanctions designation regimes.

Lead end-to-end investigations into cryptoasset exposure to sanctioned entities, state-linked actors, high-risk jurisdictions, and evasion networks, owning the full project lifecycle from scoping through to final output.

Define and drive the evolution of Elliptic's sanctions monitoring operating model.

Proactively identify and remediate coverage gaps across regimes and designating authorities.

Coach and mentor more junior colleagues within the Intelligence function, sharing domain knowledge and contributing to a consistently high standard of analytical practice.
