Chainalysis, a blockchain analytics platform, is seeking a Senior Business Operations Analyst to join its Finance-embedded Business Operations team. This role serves as a strategic operator and connective tissue across leadership and functions, translating company priorities into clear plans, operating rhythms, and measurable outcomes.
You will partner with leaders across Finance, Product, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, and other teams to improve how the business plans, makes decisions, and executes. Key responsibilities include:
- Supporting high-priority, cross-functional initiatives end-to-end: framing ambiguous problems, developing analyses and recommendations, aligning stakeholders, establishing milestones and governance, and driving follow-through.
- Running planning and business review cadences, building KPI reporting and insights, and improving processes and systems.
- Supporting change initiatives such as pricing and packaging, go-to-market readiness, product launches, and organizational or operating-model changes.
- Identifying friction in cross-functional workflows and designing scalable processes, tools, and operating mechanisms.
- Preparing clear, data-informed recommendations and executive-ready materials.
- Managing multiple work-streams and facilitating alignment across stakeholders, balancing speed, rigor, and effective change management.
The Business Operations team works closely with partners across Finance, R&D, go-to-market, Legal, Security, and beyond, taking on high-priority work and creating structure where approaches are still taking shape. This role offers broad exposure to Chainalysis and the opportunity to help shape how the company operates through its next stage of growth.
Chainalysis emphasizes AI fluency as a core competency—AI is not a feature but a new way of working. The company expects all employees to take ownership of AI-driven outputs, develop these capabilities independently, bring ideas, and collaborate across teams to reinvent how work gets done.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 3–6 years of experience in business operations, strategy and operations, management consulting, finance, program management, or a related field—ideally in a SaaS or technology environment.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to translate data into insights, recommendations, and decisions.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to create executive-ready narratives and materials.
- Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional initiatives from problem definition through implementation and measurable outcomes.
- Strong project and program management skills, including prioritization, stakeholder management, and attention to detail.
- Familiarity with business intelligence, data, and collaboration tools; experience with Jira, Confluence, Databricks, spreadsheets, SQL, and/or AI-powered tools is a plus.
- Ability to drive clarity in ambiguity, influence without authority, and demonstrate resilience in a dynamic environment.
- Curious, adaptable, and motivated to learn quickly, challenge assumptions, and make the company and team better.
NICE TO HAVE:
- Business Operations or Strategy & Operations experience in a high-growth SaaS or technology company.
- Supporting annual or quarterly planning, operating cadences, business reviews, resource allocation, or strategic planning processes.
- Establishing KPIs, building performance dashboards, and using data to identify trends, risks, and opportunities.
- Supporting pricing and packaging, go-to-market or commercialization initiatives, product launches, or broader change-management efforts.
- Applying agile, lean, or other process-improvement methodologies to scale how teams work.
- Interest in and general knowledge of blockchain and cryptocurrency, including key players and market dynamics.
