Most legal & compliance roles in crypto pay between $90k and $265k, with a median of $173k.

As a Risk Control Specialist (Wallet) at RedotPay, you own on-chain risk detection, prevention, and mitigation for our wallet and deposit infrastructure. You'll build and operate monitoring rules, alerts, and response workflows to protect user funds, prevent illicit and sanctioned inflows, and support AML/CFT compliance while enabling business growth.

What you'll do

  • Design and continuously improve on-chain monitoring rules and models for deposits, address interactions, fund source analysis, and anomalous patterns
  • Monitor company wallet activity (hot, warm, and cold wallets), deposit addresses, and high-risk interactions in real time or near real time
  • Detect and investigate suspicious behaviors such as mixers, tumblers, risky protocols, rapid layering, and abnormal deposit patterns
  • Implement risk controls including deposit credit gating, address screening, exposure limits, and intervention workflows (both automated and manual)
  • Define risk thresholds by network, token, and wallet tier (hot, warm, cold)
  • Support decisions such as delaying or returning deposits, freezing addresses, and escalating cases with Ops and Compliance teams
  • Lead and support investigations and produce clear risk assessment reports with recommended actions (hold, block, release, escalate, SAR, STR, referral)
  • Maintain case workflows, escalation matrices, and documentation standards
  • Partner with Compliance on sanctions screening and regulatory reporting
  • Work with Product, Engineering, and Data teams to define tooling, dashboards, alerting, and decision engines
  • Tune rules to balance detection quality, false positives, and operational efficiency
  • Track KPIs including coverage, true positive rate, handling time, and residual risk
  • Collaborate across Wallet and Deposit Ops, Product, Compliance, Legal, and Treasury teams

What you bring

  • 3+ years in crypto risk, blockchain analytics, AML transaction monitoring, or digital asset compliance and operations with on-chain and wallet exposure
  • Strong blockchain fundamentals and fund flow analysis (UTXO vs account-based models, clustering, fund paths)
  • Hands-on experience with blockchain analytics tools such as Chainalysis, Elliptic, TRM, Arkham, or equivalent platforms
  • Experience designing and operating risk rules, alerts, and case investigations
  • Familiarity with AML/CFT and sanctions expectations for virtual asset service providers
  • Strong analytical and investigative skills and clear communication

Nice to have

  • Experience at an exchange, custody provider, or analytics firm
  • Wallet risk experience beyond deposit screening
  • SQL, data analysis, and dashboarding experience
