About The Position

TRM's Intelligence organization is a multi-domain team of analysts and investigators tracking illicit cryptocurrency activity across some of the most consequential threat areas in financial crime and national security — from nation-state actors and cybercrime to counterterrorism financing, sanctions evasion, and beyond. As Senior Manager, Threat Intelligence Operations, you'll lead a portfolio of specialized pods, each staffed with experienced practitioners and led by domain-focused pod leads. This is a rare opportunity to shape both the strategy and the culture of an intelligence organization doing genuinely novel work at the intersection of blockchain analytics, investigative tradecraft, and national security.

Requirements

• A seasoned intelligence or investigative professional with 8+ years of experience and 3+ years leading teams of analysts or investigators
• Someone with deep roots in at least one serious threat domain at the intersection of financial crime, national security, or cybersecurity — with direct experience tracking illicit networks or adversary activity, not just managing teams that do
• A leader who stays credible in the work — you can set direction, and you can also sit down and work through a hard analytic problem alongside your team
• Familiarity with blockchain analytics concepts and on-chain investigative methodologies; hands-on tracing experience is a plus, and a strong aptitude to learn is required
• Someone who actively uses and builds with AI in their work — ideally with hands-on experience designing agentic workflows or AI-augmented intelligence processes — and who leads their teams to do the same, not just encourages it
• A leader with a track record of guiding teams through rapid change — someone who is energized by building in ambiguous, fast-moving environments, not unsettled by them
• Exceptional communicator who can translate complex, sensitive intelligence work for diverse audiences — from analysts to executives to government partners

Responsibilities

• Build and develop a high-performing intelligence organization responsible for multiple threat categories — setting analytic standards, developing team leads and practitioners, and creating a culture of rigor and continuous learning
• Stay hands-on with the hardest problems your teams face — engaging directly on complex casework, methodology questions, and analytic challenges across threat domains
• Be a champion for embracing new approaches to the way of working of your team, including introducing new tools, sources, and approaches to continually innovate team workflows and outputs
• Identify capability gaps and drive the hiring, training, and org design needed to close them
• Translate your organization's intelligence output into impact beyond the team — through product partnerships, government engagements, and external forums
• Serve as a thought partner and mentor to others, helping them grow into the next generation of intelligence leaders at TRM
