If you want to help build the backbone of programmable finance and agentic systems, we’d love to work with you!
We have offices in Madrid (Gran VĂa), and we are also open to a full remote setting from Spain.
Full-time, indefinite contract.
We are looking for an AML Lead to take end-to-end ownership of Crossmint’s anti–money laundering program and related internal controls. You’ll be the key person ensuring our operations remain compliant as we scale across Europe and beyond, with a direct reporting line to the General Counsel.
This is a high-visibility role where you’ll define, manage and implement the company’s AML framework, coordinate with regulators and auditors, and make sure compliance keeps pace with innovation. Within the medium term, you’ll also have the opportunity to assume the position of AMLRO with SEPBLAC (Spanish AML supervisor), giving you both local accountability and international reach.
Crossmint is a scale-up: You’ll be designing strategy, but also rolling up your sleeves when needed, reviewing escalations, supervising the onboarding of large clients, coordinating Enhanced Due Diligences, and ensuring our processes work in practice. If you want to make a real impact by shaping the AML function of a fast-growing company at the center of programmable finance, this is your place.
Drive Multi-Jurisdiction Compliance: Ensure we stay ahead of AML requirements in Europe, and in the new markets we expand into.
Own the AML Function: Lead and coordinate all AML responsibilities, working with Legal on program design, execution and reporting.
Strengthen Internal Controls: Design, monitor, and refine AML-related controls to prevent fraud and financial misstatements.
Step Into AMLRO Role: Progress toward becoming AMLRO with SEPBLAC, handling regulatory filings and direct engagement with authorities.
Review escalations of high-risk or problematic users
Supervise onboarding of large or strategic clients
Decide the outcome of complex enhance due diligence cases
Lead special examinations and file Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) when needed
Collaborate Across Teams: Work with Risk, Finance, Security, and Product to embed compliance seamlessly into operations.
Champion AML Culture: Train and educate colleagues, raise awareness, and ensure compliance is seen as an enabler of growth, not a blocker.
6+ years of experience in AML, compliance, internal controls, risk management, and audit.
Proven expertise in KYC/KYB, AML, sanctions screening, SAR preparation, and fraud detection.
Familiarity with MiCA/VASP, GDPR, DORA, SOC2, ISO, and related frameworks. Blockchain or crypto compliance experience is a strong plus.
Web3 experience and strong knowledge of on-chain analysis tools (Elliptic, Chainalysis, Persona, Notabene) is highly desirable.
Experience with global AML frameworks: EU Fifth Directive, US Bank Secrecy Act, FATF Recommendations, etc. as they apply to fintech and payment services.
Relevant certifications (e.g., CAMS, CISA, CIA) are a plus.
Excellent analytical, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
A proactive, pragmatic mindset. Someone comfortable leading strategy but also getting into the details when needed. You work well under pressure in a high stakes environment.
Impactful Work: Take the lead in building and owning compliance processes that will shape the future of onchain compliance in Europe.
Leadership Growth: Step into a role designed to grow. Within months, you may be leading a small compliance team.
Cross-Functional Exposure: Work alongside Legal, Risk, Finance, and Security, playing a pivotal role across the company.
Dynamic Environment: Be at the forefront of blockchain innovation, adapting compliance to a space where regulation is just taking shape.
Career Development: Deepen your expertise across multi-jurisdictional compliance, while growing your leadership skills in a supportive, forward-thinking team.
