About MoonPay
Hi, we’re MoonPay. We’re here to onboard the world to the decentralized economy by making digital money move as universally and effortlessly as the internet.
Why?
Because crypto, stablecoins and blockchain aren’t just technologies. They’re tools for global financial empowerment. They give people and businesses more control over their money, their digital assets, and their future, opening access to legacy financial systems that have been out of reach for many.
What we do
MoonPay is a unified payments platform for digital currency. We make it easy for anyone, anywhere, to buy, sell, swap and pay in digital currencies as easy as sending an email. That simplicity is intentional, our focus is reducing complexity so people can participate confidently, without needing to be crypto experts. We power the entire flow between fiat and crypto end to end, with compliance, identity checks, fraud prevention, and settlement all built in. This end-to-end approach reflects how we work internally: with accountability, rigor, and trust built into everything we ship.
Proven at scale
Trusted by over 30 million customers and over 500 ecosystem partners, our secure, enterprise-grade platform is driving mainstream crypto adoption worldwide. Behind those numbers are millions of real people and organizations relying on MoonPay every day.
We collaborate with innovative brands and projects to build secure, scalable solutions for a blockchain-powered future. This is an opportunity to help shape systems, not just scale them. And we’re committed to doing it right. Fully licensed in the U.S. and regulated across the UK, EU, Canada, and Australia, because trust and compliance are non-negotiable.
But we’re just getting started. We’ve launched a consumer app that makes crypto accessible, intuitive, and usable for everyone, and it’s growing fast. We’re iterating every day to make it the best it can be.
If you believe financial freedom should be for everyone. If you believe in building a fairer, more open financial system - we want you with us. To build systems that benefit all, we need contributions from all, regardless of background.
Come build the future of payments and the decentralized economy with MoonPay. Let’s make financial freedom and autonomy the new normal.
About the Opportunity ✍️

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, evolving regulatory landscape - particularly within crypto - and wants to help build scalable compliance infrastructure at a high-growth company.

- Perform compliance testing and monitoring activities across Compliance and business functions, identifying control gaps and tracking remediation.
- Support global regulatory compliance efforts by ensuring policies, procedures, and controls align with applicable laws and industry standards (including EU and other key jurisdictions).
- Prepare clear, data-driven reporting and risk insights for senior leadership to support decision-making and governance oversight.
- Stay informed on emerging crypto-related regulatory developments and evolving risk trends, proactively highlighting potential impacts to the business.
What you will need
- 2+ years of experience in risk management and/or regulatory compliance, ideally within fintech, financial services, or crypto.
- Direct professional experience in cryptocurrency
- Experience with risk and compliance requirements in various EU jurisdictions
- Demonstrated ability to independently assess moderately complex risk and compliance scenarios and propose practical, scalable solutions.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret regulatory requirements and translate them into effective controls.
- Detail-oriented, proactive, and comfortable collaborating with cross-functional and international stakeholders in a fast-paced environment.

- Experience working in a high-growth startup or scale-up environment.
- Professional fluency in Dutch.
