• Support the enforcement of KYC/AML procedures and transaction monitoring

• Partner closely with Legal, Risk, and Technology teams to improve surveillance systems and compliance workflows

• Willingness to work overnight shifts and weekends

• Familiarity with futures, event markets, and trading concepts

Nice to haves

• Proficiency in Excel / Google Sheets (SQL or Python is a plus)

• Familiarity with trade surveillance platforms
