Ready to be pushed beyond what you think you’re capable of?
At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom in the world. It’s a massive, ambitious opportunity that demands the best of us, every day, as we build the emerging onchain platform — and with it, the future global financial system.
To achieve our mission, we’re seeking a very specific candidate. We want someone who is passionate about our mission and who believes in the power of crypto and blockchain technology to update the financial system. We want someone who is eager to leave their mark on the world, who relishes the pressure and privilege of working with high caliber colleagues, and who actively seeks feedback to keep leveling up. We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company’s hardest problems.
Our work culture is intense and isn’t for everyone. But if you want to build the future alongside others who excel in their disciplines and expect the same from you, there’s no better place to be.
We’re hiring for a Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO) for Latin America who will be responsible for building and executing against anti-money laundering and sanctions requirements to support the Brazil and Argentina markets, working collaboratively with Coinbase’s Global Financial Crimes Compliance team. This position will also advise Coinbase’s Latin America management team of emerging financial crimes and sanctions compliance issues and consult and guide Coinbase in the establishment of controls to mitigate risks. The Latin America MLRO will report to the Director, Head of Compliance for Americas.
