Job Description
Bybit, a globally recognized cryptocurrency exchange and digital financial platform founded in 2018, is hiring a Blockchain Risk Control Lead for a remote position based out of Europe. Serving more than 80 million users across over 200 countries and regions, the company provides an ecosystem spanning trading, payments, wealth management, custody, institutional services, and Web3. This role focuses on advancing AI-augmented threat intelligence and post-quantum cryptographic security. The ideal person for this position bridges academic research and industry practice, building collaborative ties with research institutions to integrate emerging cryptographic and artificial intelligence methods into company operations.
This professional will utilize large language model techniques to build next-generation on-chain risk identification and threat intelligence platforms. Responsibilities include setting up autonomous agent workflows for continuous monitoring, conducting forensic investigations into real cryptocurrency theft, fraud, and market manipulation, and evaluating post-quantum cryptographic standards against existing cryptographic foundations like ECDSA and RSA.
Responsibilities
- Build next-generation on-chain risk identification and threat intelligence systems using large language model techniques, including autonomous agent workflows for continuous monitoring and automated operational responses.
- Conduct forensic investigations on actual cryptocurrency theft, fraud, and market manipulation incidents utilizing AI-assisted pattern recognition.
- Research post-quantum cryptographic algorithms such as NIST PQC standards including ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA, and FALCON, while evaluating migration paths.
- Assess quantum computing threats to existing cryptographic foundations like ECDSA secp256k1 and hash functions.
- Partner with internal teams and external stakeholders for incident response, and engage with academic institutions to translate frontier research into deployable security tools.
Requirements
- Proficiency in programming languages commonly used in blockchain analytics such as SQL, Python, and Javascript.
- Experience applying machine learning or artificial intelligence techniques to blockchain data analysis, threat intelligence, or fraud detection.
