About The Role

DriveWealth LLC is seeking a highly motivated and seasoned VP, FCM, Tokenization & Stablecoin Compliance Officer in either our New York or Chicago office to lead compliance for the firm’s expansion into event-based prediction markets and stablecoin/tokenization initiatives. Reporting to the Chief Compliance Officer, you will build and lead the compliance program supporting DriveWealth’s FCM registration and NFA membership, alongside the firm’s growing digital asset and stablecoin footprint.

In this leadership role, you will provide expert guidance on complex regulatory matters spanning CFTC and NFA rules governing futures commission merchants, prediction and event contract markets (including our relationship with Kalshi), and the regulatory frameworks applicable to stablecoin issuance, custody, and tokenization. This is a build role: as firms across the industry, including Robinhood and other fintech and brokerage platforms, expand into similar products, we are seeking a leader who has directly navigated this regulatory landscape and can stand up a compliant, scalable program while shaping firm-wide controls within an innovative and entrepreneurial culture.

What You’ll Do

Program Build-Out & Team Leadership

Program Development: Build and lead the compliance function supporting DriveWealth’s FCM registration, NFA membership, and stablecoin/tokenization initiatives, hiring and developing staff as the business scales.

Workflow Oversight: Manage and re-prioritize team workloads across FCM, prediction market, and stablecoin/tokenization workstreams to ensure multiple projects and regulatory deadlines are met simultaneously.

Quality Assurance: Review and approve detailed reports and surveillance investigations prepared by staff covering prediction market trading activity and stablecoin/tokenized asset transactions to ensure accurate summarization of issues and logical solutions.

Regulatory Advisory & Operations

Business Advisory: Advise business units on CFTC, NFA, and applicable state and federal digital asset regulatory obligations tied to prediction markets and stablecoins, as well as new rule proposals and firm policies.

Compliance Frameworks: Design, implement, and maintain effective compliance frameworks aligned with CFTC, NFA, state money transmitter and stablecoin regulatory regimes (e.g., the GENIUS Act), and other regulatory obligations.

Policy Governance: Oversee the development and maintenance of Written Supervisory Procedures (WSPs) for FCM operations, and internal policies governing stablecoin reserves, redemption mechanics, and tokenized asset custody.

Strategic Partnership: Proactively partner with Kalshi and other prediction market venues, stablecoin/tokenization technology partners, the firm’s Financial Crimes team, business management, risk, and technology to ensure sound business operations and facilitate the firm's success.

Monitoring & Surveillance

Level 2 Oversight: Perform Level 2 compliance reviews of prediction market and stablecoin/tokenization activity directly in the early stages of this role, transitioning to a supervisory capacity as the team is built out, ensuring firm-wide adherence to internal standards throughout.

Surveillance Logic: Enhance surveillance and monitoring frameworks covering event contract trading patterns and stablecoin transaction activity by refining detection logic and identifying patterns in large trade and transaction datasets, partnering with the firm’s Financial Crimes team on BSA/AML and Travel Rule monitoring.
