Bybit, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange and digital financial platform serving over 80 million users across 200+ countries, is seeking a Senior AML Specialist focused on Know Your Business (KYB) compliance.
In this role, you will conduct comprehensive KYB reviews for corporate onboarding, including verification of corporate structures, Ultimate Beneficial Ownership (UBO) identification, and document authentication. You will perform Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) on high-risk entities and complex corporate structures, particularly those operating in regulated or sensitive industries. Your responsibilities include assessing PEP exposure, sanctions risk, and adverse media across corporate hierarchies and associated individuals.
You will execute ongoing monitoring and periodic reviews of existing corporate clients to ensure continued compliance with risk appetite and regulatory requirements. A key part of your role is identifying and escalating unusual corporate structures, nominee arrangements, shell entities, and other indicators of potential financial crime. You will maintain accurate, well-documented case files that support risk decisions and meet audit and regulatory standards.
Collaboration is essential—you will work closely with AML Operations, Compliance, and business teams to resolve complex onboarding cases and provide risk-based recommendations. You will also contribute to the development and refinement of KYB procedures, risk frameworks, and assessment criteria.
Bybit values innovation and offers a supportive work environment with a Study Growth Fund for professional development, internal events for team collaboration, exposure to a diverse global team, and clear career advancement opportunities within a rapidly expanding organization.
