Build a Safer World.
TRM Labs provides AI-powered intelligence solutions that help public and private sector agencies investigate and disrupt crime. TRM's platforms enable investigators to trace illicit activity, build cases, and construct operating pictures of threat networks. Leading agencies and businesses worldwide rely on TRM to make the world safer and more secure.
About the Role
When a protocol is drained, or an exchange is compromised, our customers need to know within minutes or hours which addresses to block and where the funds are going. You will own TRM's answer to that, end-to-end.
As a Senior / Staff Threat Intelligence Analyst , you will lead TRM's hacks category: the metrics, the system that hits them, and the small contractor team that keeps it running around the clock. We align on the outcome; the approach is yours.
The impact you will have
Take command when a big hack breaks and act as a leader. Run the response: triage, coordination across teams, internal and customer communications, and the incident report afterwards.
Get every major hack into TRM fast. Make sure every major hack is visible to customers within hours of the first credible public report, around the clock.
Keep TRM's hack data complete and accurate. Every hack, at any size, is recorded with its entity, theft addresses, date, amount, and hack type.
Follow the money at scale. Design the system, with our Data Science and engineering teams, that carries hack-specific attribution downstream as stolen funds move.
Build the machine with AI. Leverage AI to build the tools and agents to automate key parts of hacks analysis and response, while ensuring human quality control over every output.
Explain how it happened. Root-cause the most important hacks and publish best-in-industry technical analysis that makes TRM the first source cited.
See the next one coming. Build approaches that spot vulnerable contracts before they are exploited, and get them into our product.
What we're looking for
5+ years of professional experience in blockchain intelligence, crypto investigations, cyber threat intelligence, incident response, or a closely related field.
Has owned incident response in a high-stakes environment (exchange, security firm, incident response, or CTI team): war rooms, incident reports, communications under pressure.
Strong blockchain tracing across major chains (BTC, EVM, TRON, Solana), including bridges, cross-chain swaps, and mixers.
Understands how DeFi, bridge, and exchange exploits work, and how attackers behave after the theft.
Applied AI fluency. We expect you to already be building AI-assisted or agentic workflows in your daily analytical work, to be able to show how you validate their outputs and where they fail, and to treat AI as a force multiplier.
Experience managing contractors or leading a small team.
Writes and briefs clearly, from technical deep-dives to executive summaries.
Hands-on and highly accountable: does the hardest work, not only coordinates it.
Nice to have
Smart-contract reverse-engineering (Solidity).
Experience at a security auditor or blockchain analytics firm.
Experience following specific well-known hacker groups.
About the Team
The hacks function sits within TRM's Primary Intelligence organization, alongside the Facilitation & Money Laundering (F&ML) pod. You will work closely with the Nation States, Cyber Threat Intelligence, and Global Investigations teams, as well as with Data Science and Engineering on automation, and with Marketing on publications.

Monthly metrics review with your manager.
