Headquarters: United States URL: https://www.trmlabs.com/ 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.

Life at TRM
We are building a safer world. That promise shows up in how we work every day.
TRM moves FAST. We are a high-velocity, high-ownership team that expects clarity, follow-through, and impact. People who thrive here are energized by hard problems, experimentation, and continuous feedback. If something takes months elsewhere, it will ship here in days.
Our work sits at the intersection of AI, national security, and fighting crime. The problems are complex, the stakes are real, and the environment evolves quickly. The pace and intensity of the work reflect the importance of the mission. As a result, the way we operate requires a high level of ownership, adaptability, collaboration, and creative problem-solving.
At TRM, you should expect:
•
Priorities and targets to change quickly
•
Operating with a high degree of ambiguity
•
A high level of personal ownership and accountability
•
Close collaboration across teams and functions
•
Frequent, high-touch communication
•
Creative problem-solving and out-of-the-box thinking
•
A pace that rewards urgency, adaptability, and outcomes
This environment is energizing for people who enjoy building, solving hard problems, and making progress in situations that are not always fully defined. It also requires thriving in ambiguity, adjusting course as new information emerges, and maintaining focus and positivity in a fast-moving and intense environment.
We also recognize that this style of operating is not for everyone. If you are primarily optimizing for predictability or a consistently balanced workload, we encourage you to use the interview process to pressure-test whether this environment is truly the right fit. We want teammates who thrive here, not just survive here.
If you are excited by meaningful problems, motivated by ambitious goals, and energized by working alongside mission-driven colleagues, there is a good chance you will find TRM to be an exceptional place to grow and contribute.
