We build the systems behind rewards, re-engagement campaigns, referral programs, and conversion experiments that directly move revenue and retention metrics. Think push notifications that drive meaningful traffic, loyalty programs, gamification, and geo-expansion experiments — greenfield work with real impact. As Tech Lead on the Growth Engagement team, you'll be the technical anchor for a small squad of 3–5 engineers — deeply hands-on in the code while providing the clarity and direction that keeps the team executing at pace. You'll own the technical foundation for a greenfield engagement platform, making early architectural decisions that will shape how we build rewards, notifications, and experimentation capabilities for years to come. This role is for engineers who thrive in ambiguity, love building from scratch, and are energized by seeing their work directly move metrics. You're not a pure people manager — you're a technical leader who ships alongside your team. This role is fully remote. We consider candidates in EU and EST US/LATAM timezones. ## The opportunity - Own the technical direction and delivery for re-engagement and rewards systems — from push notification infrastructure to loyalty mechanics and gamification features. - Stay hands-on in the codebase, writing production-grade code and setting the bar for quality, reliability, and speed. - Make early architectural decisions for a greenfield system — designing for experimentation velocity and iterative growth. - Break down fast-moving initiatives from leadership into clear, executable plans your squad can ship in ~1-week cycles. - Partner with Product to scope and run experiments — referral optimization, geo-expansion, pricing mechanics, campaign infrastructure, and more. - Mentor and support engineers on your squad, growing their technical judgment and autonomy. - Collaborate with other engineering leads to ensure consistency and best practices across the broader Growth organization. ## Skills you should HODL - Strong individual contributor background — you write production-grade code and lead by example. - Experience technically leading or coordinating a small team, squad, or project, whether formally or informally and day to day being involved in coding and outcomes of the team. - Deep proficiency in TypeScript (React / React Native) including mobile engineering and a broad knowledge of backend engineering including Rust, our core languages. - Comfort building in greenfield environments — you can make pragmatic early decisions without over-engineering. - A strong experimentation mindset — you're used to shipping fast, measuring impact, and iterating. - A product mindset — you care about retention and revenue metrics, not just engineering output. - Strong communication skills; you can translate fast-moving leadership direction into clear technical plans. - Comfort operating autonomously in a remote-first, distributed environment. ## Nice to haves - Experience building engagement systems: push notifications, email re-engagement, referral programs, loyalty or rewards platforms. - Background in gamification, incentive mechanics, or campaign infrastructure. - Familiarity with experimentation frameworks and A/B testing at scale. - Exposure to infrastructure and tooling such as Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Redis, or GitLab CI/CD. - Experience in a high-growth environment where pace and adaptability were essential. ## How You Lead - You lead through technical clarity — setting direction, sharing context, and empowering your squad to ship fast with confidence. - You mentor through doing — your code, decisions, and process set the bar for those around you. - You communicate proactively, translating leadership priorities into actionable direction for your team. - You model ownership and accountability — when the team ships a win, you made it possible. We know that great engineers come from many backgrounds.

This role sits somewhere between product marketing, community, and culture. You’ll work closely with PMMs, partners, and regional teams to turn a complex product into content people actually understand — and want to engage with. This is primarily a B2C role, but you’ll need to stay aware of ecosystem and partner context. If you’re someone who understands crypto culture, has good market instincts, and knows how to turn that into content and growth – this is probably for you. ## The team **xStocks** is building the ecosystem for tokenized equities: bringing global markets onchain and expanding access to financial assets. For us, social and community aren’t support functions, they’re core to how we grow. Social is how we build awareness, shape narrative, and stay relevant. Community is how we drive engagement, participation, and retention. ## The opportunity - Own xStocks social channels end-to-end, with a focus on growing a global audience (crypto-native + mainstream) - Lead community management and growth. Not just responding, but creating participation loops and campaigns - Turn complex topics (tokenized equities, markets, infra) into clear, engaging content - Run social for launches and announcements, making sure things land and get understood - Work closely with product marketing, partnerships, and regional teams to stay aligned and amplify key moments - Drive both always-on content and reactive content (markets, trends, cultural moments) - Coordinate localisation with regional teams (incl. CN/APAC) - Support partner amplification where needed (co-marketing, reposts, etc.) - Build and manage a high-signal community: balancing education, participation, and entertainment - Create content yourself when needed (copy + simple visuals). We move FAST - Experiment across formats: threads, short-form, explainers, commentary, community-driven content - Use social + community feedback to inform content and overall strategy - Own performance: reach, engagement, growth, retention, and keep improving it ## Skills you should HODL - 5–8+ years in social/content roles (crypto, fintech, or consumer tech helps) - Strong understanding of how content actually performs on X, TikTok, IG. Not just how it looks but what audience likes to see and engage with - Good grasp of crypto + financial markets, and the ability to simplify them - Experience building and managing communities (bonus if you’ve worked with gamified systems like points/rewards) - Strong storytelling instincts. You know how to make things click - Able to create content end-to-end (writing + scrappy visuals when needed) - Comfortable working cross-functionally and moving fast - Experience with localisation across markets is a plus - Data-aware. You track what works and adjust quickly - Uses AI tools to move faster (not as a crutch, but as leverage) - Self-directed, responsive, and comfortable in a high-velocity environment - Actually plugged into crypto Twitter / market conversations *Unless a specific application deadline is stated in the job posting, applications are accepted on an ongoing basis.* *Please note, applicants are permitted to redact or remove information on their resume that identifies age, date of birth, or dates of attendance at or graduation from an educational institution.* *We consider qualified applicants with criminal histories for employment on our team, assessing candidates in a manner consistent with the requirements of the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance.* Kraken is powered by people from around the world and we celebrate all Krakenites for their diverse talents, backgrounds, contributions and unique perspectives.

As a fully remote company, we have Krakenites in 70+ countries who speak over 50 languages. Krakenites are industry pioneers who develop premium crypto products for experienced traders, institutions, and newcomers to the space. Kraken is committed to industry-leading security, crypto education, and world-class client support through our products like Kraken Pro, Desktop, Wallet, and Kraken Futures. **Become a Krakenite and build the future of crypto!** ## Proof of work ## The team Payward Services is Kraken's B2B infrastructure platform — built on 15 years of operating history — that enables companies to add digital asset trading, stablecoin payments, custody, staking, lending, and funding rails to their own products through a single integration. Rather than stitching together multiple vendors, partners build on unified infrastructure where execution, custody, compliance, risk, and settlement work in concert. Within Payward Services, **Embed** is the product line that powers trading experiences inside partner apps. We help fintechs, banks, brokerages, and platforms offer their customers digital asset trading — spot, derivatives, tokenized equities, recurring buys, limit orders — without building exchange infrastructure from scratch. Our partners' end users trade inside the partner's app; we provide everything underneath. We're hiring a **Director, Product & GM** to own the Embed product line end-to-end. Reporting to the Global Head of Payward Services, this is a product-first leadership role. You'll define what we build, shape how partners integrate it, and work directly with clients to make sure the product works in real-world deployments. You won't carry a sales quota — but the products you ship will directly drive Payward Services revenue. ## The opportunity - Own the Embed product line end-to-end, including strategy, roadmap, and execution across trading, custody (custodial + non-custodial), APIs, recurring/limit orders, xStocks, and derivatives (with the Derivatives team). - Build B2B2C trading infrastructure enabling partners (fintechs, banks, brokerages) to embed institutional-grade trading into their products. - Design systems across order management, execution, custody integration, compliance workflows, and trading UX/API patterns. - Drive partner-led product development, working directly with clients to translate requirements into scalable product decisions and unblock integrations. - Treat the product as the GTM, ensuring Embed is adopted because it integrates cleanly and solves partner problems. - Lead the full product lifecycle from discovery and scoping through build, launch, and iteration. - Manage a cross-functional pod (PM, design, engineering), setting priorities, removing blockers, and driving consistent delivery. - Own key metrics including partner adoption, integration velocity, trading volume, end-user activation, and revenue impact. - Partner with Sales and BD to support strategic deals through product expertise, demos, and custom integration planning. - Act as a central platform owner, collaborating with Compliance, Legal, Risk, Payments, and Custody to scale globally and balance partner needs with platform reliability and scalability. ## Skills you should HODL - 10+ years of product management experience, with significant time spent building B2B2C infrastructure — ideally platforms that help companies add trading, brokerage, or financial services to their own apps. - Deep experience with trading platforms or exchange infrastructure. You understand order types, execution models, custody, settlement, and what it takes to build trading products that work at scale. Prior experience at an exchange, brokerage platform, or trading infra provider is strongly preferred. - Track record of shipping B2B products that partners actually integrate. You've dealt with the realities of enterprise integration — API design, onboarding friction, compliance requirements, multi-tenant architecture. - Technical fluency. You don't need to write code, but you need to hold your own in architecture discussions, make informed build/buy tradeoffs, and challenge engineering when needed. - Experience in regulated financial services. You've worked within compliance and licensing constraints and understand how they shape product decisions — especially across multiple jurisdictions. - Strong product sense with commercial awareness. You lead with product, but you understand how product decisions drive revenue.

You've shipped code before — and that background helps you navigate complex vendor integrations, earn engineering trust, and build AI-powered workflows that actually scale. Critically, you don't just configure Jira: you script it. You use the Atlassian REST API or MCP to build real automations, and you know your way around workflow orchestration tools like n8n. You'll sit at the intersection of engineering, compliance, and product — owning the full delivery lifecycle for one of our most critical customer-facing systems. This role operates across KYC, AML, sanctions screening, onboarding compliance, and third-party vendor integration. This role is fully remote. We consider candidates in EU and EST US/LATAM timezones. ## The opportunity - Drive end-to-end delivery of complex, cross-functional projects spanning customer onboarding, identity verification, KYC/AML workflows, and compliance tooling. - Build and maintain custom automations, integrations, and reporting pipelines using the Atlassian REST API and/or MCP going well beyond native Jira automation rules. - Design and deploy multi-system workflow automations connecting Jira, Confluence, and third-party tools; lead n8n workflow development where applicable. - Coordinate technical integration of third-party KYC, sanctions screening, and identity providers; own timelines, SLAs, and integration quality. - Maintain ongoing capacity planning visibility model sprint and quarterly team bandwidth against roadmap commitments and surface resourcing constraints proactively. - Design and deploy AI-assisted workflows that reduce manual overhead across compliance operations, onboarding review, and engineering coordination. - Build and manage project plans, roadmaps, dashboards, and release timelines with clear dependency mapping and risk tracking. - Align stakeholders across Engineering, Product, Compliance, Legal, Security, and executive leadership — with communication calibrated to each audience. - Facilitate standups, sprint reviews, retrospectives, and planning sessions with a bias toward systemic improvement. - Partner with external vendors to define requirements and hold them to technical and compliance standards. ## Skills you should HODL - 6+ years of Technical Project Management experience in fast-paced, cross-functional software organizations. - Development background — prior experience as a software or data engineer; you read PRs, understand system design, and communicate business impact and risk based on development timeline changes. - Atlassian API or MCP scripting — demonstrated experience using the Atlassian REST API or MCP to build automations, custom integrations, or data pipelines beyond native Jira automation rules. - Scripting proficiency — Python, JS, bash, or similar; you write the script yourself, not just the ticket requesting it. - AI and process automation — hands-on experience designing or deploying AI-assisted workflows or LLM-integrated tooling in a professional context. - Capacity planning — proven ability to model team capacity, track velocity, and translate bandwidth constraints into clear roadmap trade-offs. - Agile and waterfall fluency — you pick the right methodology for the context, not the one you prefer. - Strong communicator — able to synthesize technical complexity into clear plans, status updates, and executive summaries. ## Nice to haves - n8n — experience building multi-step workflow automations; familiarity with nodes, triggers, and webhook-based orchestration. - KYC, AML, or sanctions screening platform experience. - Onboarding compliance knowledge across multiple jurisdictions. - Experience managing complex third-party vendor integrations end-to-end, including SLA accountability. - Familiarity with event-driven architectures, REST APIs, and webhook patterns. - FinTech or regulated industry background with data sensitivity and security awareness. *Unless a specific application deadline is stated in the job posting, applications are accepted on an ongoing basis.* *Please note, applicants are permitted to redact or remove information on their resume that identifies age, date of birth, or dates of attendance at or graduation from an educational institution.* *We consider qualified applicants with criminal histories for employment on our team, assessing candidates in a manner consistent with the requirements of the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance.* Kraken is powered by people from around the world and we celebrate all Krakenites for their diverse talents, backgrounds, contributions and unique perspectives.

Kraken is committed to industry-leading security, crypto education, and world-class client support through our products like Kraken Pro, Desktop, Wallet, and Kraken Futures. **Become a Krakenite and build the future of crypto!** ## Proof of work ## The team The Client Engagement Data Analyst - AI sits at the intersection of Client Engagement operations, data infrastructure, and AI capability. This role exists to ensure that the data signals flowing through our support systems are clean, well-structured, and ready to power AI-driven insights and automation. But this is more than a data role. We are looking for someone who has actually orchestrated AI to solve real business problems, not just someone who uses AI tools, but someone who has built the systems, data foundations, and governance frameworks that allow AI to make good decisions at scale. In most organizations, the bottleneck isn't the AI model, it's the quality and structure of the data feeding it. This person knows how to remove that bottleneck. Working closely with the Process Optimization & Automation Team, you will co-own the logic and governance that shapes how support data is structured, tagged, and interpreted and translate that structure into meaningful reporting that drives decisions across Client Engagement and beyond. This is a role for someone who is equally comfortable designing a data model and presenting a dashboard to a senior stakeholder. You bridge the gap between operational reality and the data architecture needed to make AI work well on top of it. Just as importantly, you bring others along with you — building confidence and capability across the team as AI becomes embedded in how we all work. ## The opportunity ### AI Orchestration & Outcome Delivery - Design and coordinate AI agent workflows that solve real operational problems, going beyond off-the-shelf tools to build systems that actually drive outcomes - Identify where AI can deliver the most impact within CE operations and take ownership of making those use cases work end-to-end - Establish the data foundations, tagging logic, and system architecture that allow AI to make accurate, reliable decisions - Act as the team's first mover — testing, applying, and refining new AI capabilities before they are rolled out broadly ### Data Structure & AI Readiness - Design and maintain data models that support AI tagging, classification, and reporting across Client Engagement systems - Audit and optimize data tables in Zendesk and connected platforms to ensure they are structured for AI consumption - Define how support data categories, fields, and hierarchies map to desired AI output — working closely with the AI layer owner to ensure inputs are clean, consistent, and model-ready - Identify gaps between current data structure and what is needed to unlock new AI capabilities ### Reporting & Insights - Build and maintain dashboards and reports that surface AI performance signals, support trends, and operational health metrics - Develop the Echo Report and other AI-driven reporting outputs that translate raw data into clear client and operational insights - Monitor the feedback loop between AI outputs and human behavior — tracking when specialists accept, edit, or override AI-suggested categories, and what that tells us about model efficacy - Proactively identify emerging patterns in support data and connect them back to reporting and signal strategy ### Cross-Functional Translation & Team Uplift - Partner closely with senior AI and engineering leaders — learning from them, contributing to what's being built, and being the first to apply new capabilities within CE - Act as the connective layer between CE operations, the AI/automation team, and engineering — translating operational data needs into clear technical requirements - Champion AI literacy across the CE team — teaching, enabling, and building confidence so that AI becomes part of how everyone works, not just a specialist function - Communicate data model changes, tagging updates, and reporting outputs to non-technical stakeholders in plain language - Contribute to backlog prioritization by sizing the data readiness requirements of proposed AI and automation initiatives ## Skills you should HODL - 3–5 years of experience in a data analyst, operations analyst, or similar role — ideally within fintech, crypto, or high-volume customer operations - Demonstrated experience coordinating AI agents (OpenClaw, LangChain, CrewAI) or building AI-powered workflows to solve real business problems not just prompting tools, but designing systems that drive outcomes - A proven track record of setting up the data foundations, structures, and governance that allow AI to actually work — understanding that the blocker is rarely the model, it's the data feeding it - Strong SQL skills and comfort querying and transforming data across complex systems - Hands-on experience with Zendesk or a comparable CX/case management platform — understanding of data structures, ticket fields, tags, and reporting - Proficiency with BI tools such as Looker, Mixpanel, or similar — able to build and own dashboards independently - Experience designing or contributing to data taxonomy, tagging frameworks, or classification systems - Ability to translate between operational language and technical/data requirements — comfortable working with both frontline teams and engineers - Familiarity with how AI/ML systems consume structured data — understanding of what "model-ready" data looks like in practice - A genuine desire to teach and uplift others — this person raises the AI capability of everyone around them ## Nice to haves - Exposure to AI tagging pipelines, LLM-based classification, or RAG-based knowledge systems - Experience with Python or scripting for data transformation and automation - Background in crypto, digital assets, or compliance-adjacent operations - Familiarity with process mining tools or workflow automation platforms (e.g. n8n, Zapier, Make) - Lean Six Sigma or similar process improvement certification

This is a hands-on IC role with real ownership: you'll take on complex, ambiguous design challenges and lead the design and delivery of tools used daily by our Operations, Support, Compliance and beyond, the people who keep Kraken running for millions of customers around the world. We're a hardworking team that moves fast and ships with purpose. We're straight-talking, no-nonsense, and deeply invested in the quality of what we build.

Kraken is committed to industry-leading security, crypto education, and world-class client support through our products like Kraken Pro, Desktop, Wallet, and Kraken Futures. **Become a Krakenite and build the future of crypto!** ## Proof of work ## The Team Kraken's Global Finance team is the operational backbone of one of the world's most trusted and longest-standing crypto exchanges. The team spans accounting, FP&A, treasury, tax, and finance operations across multiple regulated entities and 70+ countries, managing the financial infrastructure that underpins everything from daily close to regulatory reporting to crypto-native asset reconciliation. As financial complexity grows with Kraken's global footprint, this role architectures and provides hands-on building to scale growth. Finance operations at a globally regulated crypto exchange managing close cycles, reconciliations, reporting, treasury monitoring, and controls validation all generate substantial manual effort tied to critical financial and regulatory obligations. Errors carry audit, SOX, security, and regulatory consequences. ## The Opportunity You will serve as the primary architect and builder of the AI-native finance operating system at Kraken. This role spans two simultaneous horizons: deploying production automation now and redesigning the finance architecture for the long term. Responsibilities span five core areas: ### Assess and map Finance operations - Evaluate how financial work currently flows across the organization, including close, reconciliations, treasury, reporting, controls validation, and audit preparation. - Identify capability gaps, manual bottlenecks, and integration failure points across systems including NetSuite, BlackLine, Kyriba, Fireblocks, and Lukka. - Benchmark current operations against best-in-class practices and emerging AI capabilities to build the Finance automation roadmap, prioritized by operational leverage and regulatory risk. - Work directly with accounting, FP&A, treasury, and finance operations teams to translate process pain points into buildable automation requirements. ### Architect the agentic finance platform - Design the long-term architecture for an AI-native finance operating system. Define how agentic systems interact with financial infrastructure, data pipelines, and control and reporting frameworks. - Evaluate Kraken's existing finance systems stack from first principles, including platforms and the interfaces and data flows between them. Identify opportunities to simplify the stack, reduce manual intervention, and define a scalable target architecture. - Build an agentic finance layer that runs alongside the existing stack today, automating workflows while defining the migration path toward a more scalable, AI-native architecture over time. ### Build and deploy production finance automation - Deploy production-grade agentic workflows that automate finance operations: reconciliations, close processes, audit and reporting preparation, treasury monitoring, financial analytics, and controls validation. - Build using modern AI tooling including Claude and Anthropic APIs, Python-based orchestration, n8n or equivalent workflow engines, and MCP or similar agent coordination layers. - Integrate internal and external systems by connecting APIs, data sources, and tools into unified automated workflows that deliver real operational leverage. - Maintain human oversight where appropriate. Design for auditability and control integrity, not just efficiency. ### Own AI governance for Finance - Establish guardrails that allow automation and agent behavior to operate safely in a SOX-regulated financial environment.

For more than a decade, Kraken has built one of the most trusted and secure platforms in the industry. Crypto markets introduce entirely new categories of financial risk — stablecoin depegs, exchange failures, liquidity fragmentation, on-chain protocol risk, and 24/7 settlement cycles.

Kraken is committed to industry-leading security, crypto education, and world-class client support through our products like Kraken Pro, Desktop, Wallet, and Kraken Futures. **Become a Krakenite and build the future of crypto!** ## Proof of work ## The team Payward's Global Compliance team is the regulatory backbone of one of the world's most trusted and longest-standing crypto exchanges — spanning AML/KYC, sanctions, financial crime, regulatory affairs, and compliance operations across dozens of licensed entities and multiple geos. ## The opportunity You will serve as the primary architect and builder of AI-powered solutions within the Kraken Compliance team. This is a full-stack ownership role spanning opportunity identification, solution design, deployment, governance, and capability transfer. This global role will require you to work strategically to “automate everything” while building Compliance’s data driven machine across multiple jurisdictions and products (e.g. crypto, payments, futures, equities, custody, margin). Responsibilities span the following areas: ### Design and deploy AI-powered Compliance solutions - Architect and build agentic workflows using n8n, Claude API, Python, and MCP that take real actions in Compliance processes with appropriate human oversight and approval gates. - Design and deliver solutions across priority Compliance use cases: alert pre-screening, case narrative generation, regulatory change summarization, EDD report drafting, and audit-ready documentation. - Build scalable, automated analytics solutions that deliver high-quality, repeatable risk insights for Compliance leadership and regulators. - Apply AI-enabled techniques for text analysis, transaction pattern recognition, and workflow automation to surface actionable signals from high-volume data. - Build error handling, audit trails, regulatory-calendar awareness, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints into every production system before deployment. - Ensure all automations comply with data classification requirements for customer PII, regulated financial data, and cross-jurisdictional privacy obligations including GDPR and applicable AML data retention rules. ### Own governance and risk for Compliance AI systems - Classify all automation builds by risk tier before work begins. No build goes to production without a named Process Owner, documented data flows, access controls confirmed, and regulatory impact assessed. - Maintain audit logging and documentation for all systems touching regulated data, SAR workflows, or sanctions-adjacent processes. - Halt or redesign builds that introduce unacceptable regulatory, legal, or data privacy risk. Own that decision and secure organizational acceptance before proceeding. - Serve as the Compliance domain representative in contributing to governance standards, model risk management, and cross-functional build alignment across the Automate Everything initiative. ### Multiply the Compliance team's capability - Produce documentation, workflow templates, and runbooks that Compliance professionals can use and maintain without technical support. - Train Compliance team members on AI-assisted tools and workflows deployed in production. Drive adoption, not just delivery. - Track and report on automation impact: alert review time reduced, case throughput increased, regulatory report cycle time shortened, and analyst capacity unlocked for higher-risk work. - Act as a force multiplier for the Compliance team, enabling investigators and analysts to focus on high-judgment, high-risk decisions through process, technology, and AI enablement. ## Skills you should HODL - 8+ years of experience in Compliance operations, financial crime, regulatory technology, or a combined compliance and technical role with demonstrated senior-level execution. - Strong fluency with AI and workflow automation tools, with demonstrated experience designing, deploying, and driving adoption of AI solutions within Compliance or RegTech workflows. - Demonstrated hands-on experience designing and deploying AI-powered or automated workflows in a production environment used by others, not just experimentation. - Deep working knowledge of anti-financial crime (e.g. AML/CFT, sanctions, transaction monitoring systems), capital markets compliance (e.g. sales and trading, market conduct, transaction surveillance, conflicts management) and data privacy frameworks. - Systems thinker with a strong implementation mindset -- able to move from discovery to design to build to deployment to optimization without relying on external consultants. - Proficiency with AI tooling stack: n8n, Python, Claude API/Anthropic SDK, or equivalent. Experience connecting Compliance systems via API is required. - Strong analytical problem-solving skills with the ability to structure ambiguous compliance questions into clear, actionable, automated analysis. - Solid understanding of data classification, customer PII handling, and cross-jurisdictional compliance obligations including GDPR, BSA, FATF standards, and applicable AML data retention requirements. - Strong written and verbal communication skills. Able to translate technical automation solutions and complex analytical results for Compliance professionals, senior leadership, and regulators who are not technical. ## Nice to haves - Experience with case management platforms (Actimize, NICE Actimize, Quantexa, or equivalent) and their API or integration architecture. - Experience using AI for document analysis, transaction narrative generation, or regulatory report drafting in a financial crime or compliance context. - Familiarity with regulatory examination readiness: documentation standards, model risk governance, and audit trail requirements for AI-assisted compliance decisions. - Experience with spreadsheet automation (Google Apps Script or equivalent) and advanced proficiency in Excel and Google Sheets for compliance analytics. - Python programming skills for transaction data analysis, risk scoring models, or compliance pipeline automation. - Background in compliance technology platform administration: AML systems, KYC platforms, case management, markets business conduct.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in 0→1 environments, enjoys building systems from scratch, and prefers shipping solutions over advising on them. ## The opportunity ### Assess & Diagnose - Evaluate how legal work currently flows across the organization, including intake, matter management, contracting, research, advisory work, and reporting. - Identify capability gaps, inefficiencies, and redundancies where the legal team may be underserving the business. - Benchmark current operations against best-in-class practices and emerging technologies to identify improvement opportunities. ### Design & Implement - Architect and evolve a legal technology stack appropriate for the team’s size, complexity, and risk profile. - Lead the evaluation, selection, and implementation of key tools, including AI productivity tools, CLM platforms, legal research and drafting tools, and workflow automation systems. - Build scalable internal processes that teams actually adopt and use in their day-to-day work. - Integrate internal and external systems by connecting APIs, data sources, and tools into unified automated workflows. ### AI Enablement (Core Focus) - Develop and execute a practical AI strategy for the legal team, including adoption, governance, and measurement of impact. - Train and embed AI tools into day-to-day legal workflows such as contract review, legal research, drafting, summarization, and triage. - Establish guardrails, quality standards, and ethical frameworks for responsible AI use. - Continuously monitor the evolving AI landscape and introduce new capabilities that improve efficiency and impact. ### Change Management & Culture - Lead change management across the legal organization by bringing stakeholders along through transformation initiatives. - Enable adoption among both early adopters and skeptics, ensuring new tools and workflows are embraced. - Build internal capability so the legal team can operate independently without relying on a single specialist. - Provide leadership reporting on efficiency improvements, operational risk, and ROI from technology and automation initiatives. ## Skills you should HODL - Proven track record building and scaling legal operations systems, including legal technology platforms, workflow automation, and operational processes in complex multi-stakeholder environments. - Hands-on experience implementing legal technology solutions such as CLM, matter management, intake systems, spend management, knowledge management, and AI-enabled legal tools. - Strong fluency with AI and workflow automation tools, with demonstrated experience designing, deploying, and driving adoption of AI solutions within legal workflows. - Deep understanding of core legal workflows (contracts, regulatory, investigations, litigation, intake, outside counsel management) and the ability to redesign inefficient processes end-to-end. - Systems thinker with a strong implementation mindset — able to move from discovery → design → build → deployment → optimization without relying on external consultants. - Ability to translate legal and business needs into technical roadmaps and scalable operational solutions. - Experience building metrics, dashboards, and performance frameworks to measure efficiency, cost, risk, and operational outcomes. - Strong communicator who can bridge legal, technical, and business teams while influencing senior stakeholders and driving cross-functional alignment. - Comfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments with a high level of ownership and bias toward execution. ## Nice to haves - Experience in a high-velocity or resource-constrained environment (startup, PE-backed company, understaffed team). - Familiarity with data privacy, information governance, or compliance systems. - Experience managing vendor relationships and procurement. - Exposure to fintech, crypto, or other regulated, fast-paced operational domains. **#LI-Remote** *Unless a specific application deadline is stated in the job posting, applications are accepted on an ongoing basis.* *Please note, applicants are permitted to redact or remove information on their resume that identifies age, date of birth, or dates of attendance at or graduation from an educational institution.* *We consider qualified applicants with criminal histories for employment on our team, assessing candidates in a manner consistent with the requirements of the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance.* Kraken is powered by people from around the world and we celebrate all Krakenites for their diverse talents, backgrounds, contributions and unique perspectives.

Before you apply, please read the Kraken Culture page to learn more about our internal culture, values, and mission. We also expect candidates to familiarize themselves with the Kraken app. Learn how to create a Kraken account here. As a fully remote company, we have Krakenites in 70+ countries who speak over 50 languages. Krakenites are industry pioneers who develop premium crypto products for experienced traders, institutions, and newcomers to the space. Kraken is committed to industry-leading security, crypto education, and world-class client support through our products like Kraken Pro, Desktop, Wallet, and Kraken Futures. **Become a Krakenite and build the future of crypto!** ## Proof of work ## The team We’re building for a new generation of global retail users who expect products that feel trustworthy, modern, and effortless—and design is central to delivering that. We’re looking for a **Sr. Director, Head of Design, Consumer** to raise the UX bar, define how people interact with crypto and investments, and build a design culture of consistent excellence. This isn’t an oversight role. It’s a hands-on, high-impact position for a leader who wants to shape strategy while staying close to the work. Kraken’s Consumer business spans some of the company’s most important product areas: - **Trading:** The Kraken App and retail web experience - **Payments:** Our new money app, Krak - **Earn:** Staking and yield products - **Equities:** Our platform for equities and tokenized equities (xStocks) - **Inky:** Our gamified onchain trading app As crypto and fintech evolve at breakneck speed, Kraken sits at the center. The Sr. Director will shape experiences millions rely on to trade, invest, stake, spend, and grow their wealth. You’ll bring a strong POV from crypto, wealth, trading, or fintech and translate it into intuitive, high-quality product experiences. You’ll lead a team of 10 designers, work closely with PMs and engineers, and set the vision, systems, and rituals that drive clarity, speed, and quality across the Consumer portfolio. This is a rare chance to redefine what great looks like in one of the most important categories in finance. ## The opportunity - **Hands-on leadership:** Dive into flows, refine interaction patterns, tighten UX decisions, and coach designers through the actual work. You elevate quality by engaging directly, not by sitting behind reviews. - **Define and communicate the design vision:** Own the long-term UX strategy for Consumer and bring teams along with clear storytelling and crisp direction. - **Bridge crypto and finance:** Create experiences that work for newcomers and sophisticated investors alike, combining simplicity with the trust and rigor expected in financial products. - **Transform execution quality:** Deliver a step-change improvement in usability, clarity, and polish across trading, payments, staking, and investment experiences. - **Partner deeply with product:** Shape problem definitions, refine hypotheses, and collaborate with PMs daily to ensure we solve the right problems with the right level of ambition. - **Build scalable design processes:** Replace ad-hoc workflows with consistent systems for discovery, iteration, critique, and delivery. - **Drive faster experimentation:** Push for more prototyping, more testing, and tighter learning loops without someone needing to nudge the team. - **Level up the team:** Hire, coach, and grow designers while embedding a culture of accountable execution and rigorous critique. - **Collaborate tightly with engineering:** Ensure design intent holds through implementation and that both sides move quickly and intelligently together. ## Skills you should HODL - **Proven team leadership:** Experience leading and scaling product design teams of 8-15+ in high-growth, product-led environments. - **Domain expertise in crypto or trading plus real experience in wealth, investment, or fintech products.** You understand trust, risk, decision-making, and the behavioral nuance of financial UX. - **A strong point of view on design and how it shapes product strategy,** not just how it shapes screens. - **Hands-on design chops:** You can jump into Figma, model excellent craft, and push work from good to great. - **Strong product intuition:** You partner with PMs as a peer, not a service function. You challenge assumptions, reframe problems, and clarify priorities. - **Operational rigor:** You install systems that raise the bar every time, not just when you personally touch the work. - **Outstanding communication:** Clear, direct, and persuasive with execs, peers, and ICs. - **High judgment:** Pragmatic about scope and tradeoffs without letting quality slide. - **Mission drive:** Belief in Kraken’s role in accelerating financial freedom and expanding access to global markets. *This job is accepting ongoing applications and there is no application deadline.* *Please note, applicants are permitted to redact or remove information on their resume that identifies age, date of birth, or dates of attendance at or graduation from an educational institution.* *We consider qualified applicants with criminal histories for employment on our team, assessing candidates in a manner consistent with the requirements of the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance.* Kraken is powered by people from around the world and we celebrate all Krakenites for their diverse talents, backgrounds, contributions and unique perspectives.
