Head of Engineering

<h1 class="text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.375rem] font-bold" data-sourcepos="1:1-1:59;0-58">Head of Compliance &amp; MLRO &ndash; Crypto Derivatives Licensing</h1>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" data-sourcepos="3:1-3:51;60-110">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" data-sourcepos="5:1-5:402;112-513">A fast-growing crypto trading platform is seeking a Head of Compliance &amp; MLRO. The company holds a licence from a leading virtual asset regulator to operate a regulated Spot exchange and is part of a larger international trading group with a presence across several markets in Asia and the Middle East, combining the rigour of institutional finance with the speed of a startup that ships product fast.</p>
<h2 class="text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold" data-sourcepos="7:1-7:19;515-533">The Opportunity</h2>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" data-sourcepos="9:1-9:746;535-1280">This is a rare dual mandate. The successful candidate will own and run the Compliance and MLRO function of a live, regulated Spot business &mdash; and, in parallel, lead the company's application for a Derivatives licence, a highly coveted authorisation in digital assets held by only a small number of firms globally. This role will drive the application process end-to-end, build the derivatives compliance framework from a blank page, and position the business to become one of the first regulated venues offering crypto and stock perpetual futures. For a compliance leader who is both a safe pair of hands on a live regulated business and a builder who thrives on greenfield licensing work, there are few mandates like this anywhere in the market.</p>
