Global Services is the centre of expertise at Chainalysis — the team that translates our platform, data, and investigative capabilities into real-world impact for customers across law enforcement, national security, financial institutions, and the broader crypto ecosystem.

Chainalysis is seeking a Deployment Strategist to join Global Services as a core technical practitioner. This is not a traditional services or solutions engineering role. Deployment Strategists are embedded technical experts who own the full lifecycle of customer value — from problem discovery and investigation through solution design, deployment, and customer enablement.

The role sits at the intersection of blockchain investigation, data analytics, domain expertise, and customer partnership. You will work directly with customers to understand their mission, conduct investigations, build tailored solutions, and enable customer teams to operationalise Chainalysis independently. Success requires deep investigative capability, genuine domain expertise, technical skill, and the ability to build trusted relationships through credibility — not just communication.

This is the role that makes Chainalysis essential to how our customers operate.

Conduct blockchain investigations across the Chainalysis platform, applying tracing, OSINT, and analytical techniques to real customer problems

Partner directly with customers to understand investigative, intelligence, compliance, or operational objectives and translate them into actionable outcomes

Design, build, and maintain custom workflows, notebooks, dashboards, queries, and data models using Chainalysis data and products

Enable customers to operate solutions independently — building their capability so that Chainalysis becomes embedded in their operational infrastructure

Develop and share domain expertise, investigative techniques, and best practices that raise the capability of the wider GS team
