Wallet in Telegram is a digital asset solution natively embedded into Telegram’s interface. Backed by The Open Platform, Wallet in Telegram gained 100M+ user accounts in 2024, and aims to make its solution available to all 1BN+ of Telegram’s users. Wallet in Telegram offers a dual-wallet experience with Crypto Wallet (a multi-chain wallet for trading and sending crypto to contacts) and TON Wallet (a self-custodial wallet with access to the TON ecosystem of dApps and tokens).
As our Head of Compliance / Global MLRO, you will build and scale a real, operational compliance function for one of the largest fintech products in the Telegram ecosystem. This is a hands-on, operational leadership role. We are looking for someone who understands how modern compliance works in crypto and fintech — not as a control layer, but as part of the product and day-to-day operations.
You will be the first person in the company with end-to-end ownership of compliance as an operating model: reviewing legacy approaches, modernising risk frameworks, and translating regulatory requirements into clear processes, tooling, and automation.
Depending on scope and experience, the role may be titled Head of Compliance / Global MLRO or Deputy MLRO / Deputy Head of Compliance.
