to liberate proof-of-work crypto miners from revenue volatility and 40% of
their tax burden by integrating cutting-edge financial strategies with strict
adherence to legal and tax compliance across multiple jurisdictions. We're
building a platform that not only enhances operational efficiency and
profitability for our clients but also ensures rigorous compliance and ethical
standards. In our journey to reshape the industry, we are looking for a
visionary Co-Founder & Chief Compliance Officer to lead our compliance, legal,

critical driver of our company's vision and growth.
Key Responsibilities
Develop and oversee the implementation of our global compliance and legal
strategy, ensuring alignment with local and international laws, particularly

Lead aspects of product development with a keen eye on compliance, innovating
while navigating the complexities of multi-jurisdictional legal frameworks.
Build and maintain strong relationships with external legal and accounting
partners to support our operational and strategic goals.
Conduct thorough compliance reviews of our product offerings, identifying
potential legal risks and devising mitigation strategies.
Stay ahead of the regulatory curve, advising the team on emerging legal trends
and potential impacts on our business model.
Foster a culture of compliance and integrity within the team, setting high
standards for operational excellence and ethical business practices.

**Qualifications**

* Demonstrated experience in product development, preferably with exposure to cryptocurrency, blockchain technology, or financial services.
* Proven track record of navigating multi-jurisdictional legal challenges, with a deep understanding of global regulatory landscapes.
* Exceptional analytical and strategic thinking skills, capable of identifying potential legal issues and crafting innovative solutions.
* Outstanding communication and relationship-building abilities, comfortable liaising with both internal teams and external partners.
* Entrepreneurial spirit, with a hunger for building something groundbreaking and a willingness to wear multiple hats in a fast-paced startup environment.
