TRM Labs provides AI-powered intelligence solutions that help public and private sector agencies investigate and disrupt crime. TRM's platforms enable investigators to trace illicit activity, build cases, and construct operating pictures of threat networks. Leading agencies and businesses worldwide rely on TRM to make the world safer and more secure.

About the role

We're looking for a Blockchain Intelligence Analyst to operate as a high-judgment, high-autonomy individual contributor specializing in transnational criminal organisations. You will use blockchain analytics, open-source and closed-source intelligence, and cryptocurrency attribution to trace the proceeds of drug trafficking, identify the networks that move them, and produce intelligence that helps TRM and its partners disrupt illicit drug activity.

This is not a people-management role. We're looking for an experienced analyst who can independently lead complex investigations, develop high-confidence assessments, uncover novel attribution, and raise the team's tradecraft through technical expertise and example. This role will require proactive work with law enforcement partners, often picking up a stalled investigation, finding what was missed, and linking it to other cases.

You should be equally comfortable tracing funds across blockchains, identifying laundering and cash-out infrastructure, correlating on-chain and off-chain signals, and turning fragmented data into clear, defensible intelligence that enables partners to make informed operational decisions.

The impact you will have

Produce finished intelligence on transnational criminal organisations, vendors, facilitators and laundering pathways, including actor profiles, lead packages and attribution assessments suitable for investigative, executive and partner audiences.

Lead complex end-to-end blockchain investigations from initial seed indicators, such as addresses, transactions, exchange exposure and infrastructure leads, through to full attribution.

Trace illicit proceeds across multiple blockchains, bridges, mixers, peel chains and nested services, identifying controllers, counterparties and cash-out points, including OTC desks, ATM networks and cash-to-crypto services.

Correlate on-chain activity with OSINT, closed-source intelligence and off-chain identity or infrastructure signals to build a complete picture of how transnational criminal organisations operate and move value.

Own investigative work-streams from discovery through validation and written production, drafting intelligence that is source-cited, auditable and operationally useful.

Build and maintain strong working relationships with law enforcement partners, so that our intelligence reflects real investigative tradecraft and gets used.

Help strengthen TRM's transnational criminal organisations coverage by contributing new attributions, refining investigative methodology and improving repeatable workflows.

Support briefings, partner engagements and capability-building sessions where tracing and attribution tradecraft must be explained clearly and credibly.

What success looks like

You generate meaningful attribution and investigative leads in cases where the answers are not obvious and the financial trail is deliberately obscured.

You consistently produce finished intelligence that partners trust and use.

Your work helps TRM and its partners move faster on high-priority narcotics activity without sacrificing rigor, auditability or defensibility.

You improve team capability by mentoring peers, refining tradecraft and strengthening repeatable workflows.

What we're looking for

Professional experience: 5+ years in blockchain intelligence, crypto investigations, financial-crime or narcotics investigations, threat intelligence, or a comparable senior analytical role.

Blockchain tracing expertise: deep hands-on experience tracing funds across multiple blockchains and through laundering or obfuscation techniques such as mixers, chain-hopping, bridges, peel chains and layered cash-out behavior.
