Lead fraud risk management and investigations within a global crypto platform.
О компании
- At OKX, we believe the future will be reshaped by crypto and blockchain technology. We operate a leading global crypto platform and build products and services designed to expand access to the digital-asset ecosystem.
- Across our global organization, we value ownership, sound judgment, collaboration, innovation, and the ability to operate effectively in a fast-moving and continuously evolving environment.
- Recruiting should insert the current approved OKX corporate “Who We Are” language when the position is posted.
- The Fraud Investigations Team (FIT) is a First Line of Defense function within OKX’s Risk organization responsible for identifying, assessing, investigating, and helping manage significant internal and external fraud risks affecting the company, its customers, personnel, and operations.
- FIT conducts and supports complex investigations involving digital assets, internal and external fraud, employee misconduct, insider threats, unauthorized access or misuse of information, vendor and third-party misconduct, account compromise, social engineering, collusion, conflicts of interest, and other significant fraud-related matters.
- The team works closely with Legal, HR, Information Security,Engineering, Physical Security, Compliance, Finance, Operations, and other functions across OKX.
Обязанности
- We are looking for an experienced Senior Analyst, Blockchain Investigations & Fraud Intelligence to join FIT.
- This is first and foremost a blockchain investigations role requiring significant hands-on expertise tracing digital assets across complex blockchain ecosystems. The successful candidate must be capable of independently conducting sophisticated on-chain investigations, developing and testing attribution hypotheses, identifying relationships among wallets and entities, following assets through multiple chains and protocols, and translating highly technical blockchain activity into clear investigative findings.
- Blockchain analysis is a specialized investigative discipline. Accordingly, we are seeking someone who understands not only how to operate commercial tracing platforms, but also the underlying blockchain architecture, transactional mechanics, attribution methodologies, clustering techniques, tracing limitations, and evidentiary considerations necessary to reach reliable conclusions.
- The role extends beyond on-chain analysis. The Senior Analyst will combine blockchain intelligence with enterprise data, system logs, transactional records, open-source information, and other evidence to support complex fraud and insider-risk investigations.
- The position will also provide analytical support to the Global Physical Security Team (PST) on selected protective-intelligence and threat-assessment matters.
- The Senior Analyst will directly manage one Analyst and will be expected to serve as a subject-matter resource for blockchain investigations and analytical methodology across FIT.
- Success in this role requires significantly more than knowing how to enter an address into a blockchain analytics platform.
- The successful candidate should be able to receive a complex transaction, wallet, allegation, or investigative question and independently determine how to trace the activity, which chains and protocols are involved, what the available data establishes, what additional information is needed, what attribution can reasonably be made, and where the technical or evidentiary limitations prevent a definitive conclusion .
- The individual should be able to move seamlessly between on-chain and off-chain evidence , recognizing that a blockchain transaction may establish movement of assets without necessarily establishing the identity, knowledge, intent, or conduct of the person behind a wallet.
- They should also be capable of converting a highly technical blockchain investigation into a concise and defensible explanation that an investigator, attorney, executive, regulator, or law-enforcement partner can understand and act upon.
- At the same time, this person must be sufficiently versatile to apply the same investigative discipline to internal fraud , insider risk, enterprise data, third-party misconduct, and protective-intelligence matters when required.
- The hierarchy is much clearer this way: blockchain investigations are the specialized core competency; fraud /investigative intelligence is the broader mission; enterprise analytics and PST support are complementary capabilities. That should materially improve the candidate pool versus a title that makes blockchain expertise appear interchangeable with general data analytics.
Требования
- 7+ years of relevant investigative or analytical experience , with meaningful professional experience specifically conducting cryptocurrency or blockchain investigations .
- Demonstrated hands-on expertise independently conducting complex blockchain tracing investigations , rather than solely reviewing blockchain alerts or commercial risk scores.

- Sound judgment and ability to work effectively where evidence is incomplete, conflicting, or evolving.
- Demonstrated discretion when handling sensitive employee, customer, investigative, security, or company information.
- Demonstrated experience mentoring, supervising, or reviewing the work of junior analysts or investigators.
Будет плюсом
- Experience conducting blockchain investigations within a cryptocurrency exchange, blockchain analytics company, law-enforcement agency, regulatory organization, financial institution, intelligence function, or investigative consulting environment .
- Experience investigating digital-asset matters involving fraud proceeds, theft, account compromise, insider activity, social engineering, asset tracing, or complex cross-chain movement .
- Experience supporting asset recovery, law-enforcement referrals, subpoenas/legal process, civil litigation, regulatory inquiries, or other matters requiring defensible blockchain analysis .
- Experience investigating insider threats, employee misconduct, unauthorized access, data exfiltration, credential compromise, vendor fraud, conflicts of interest, or trusted-party abuse.
- Experience with OSINT, digital forensics, enterprise logs, security telemetry, or identity and access-management information .
- Experience creating custom blockchain analytics through APIs, SQL , Python, blockchain explorers, node data, or other raw-data sources , rather than relying exclusively on commercial graphical interfaces.

- Professional certifications such as CFE, CFCS, CAMS, GIAC, or comparable investigative, fraud , financial-crime, cybersecurity, or intelligence credentials .
