Job Description

Chainalysis Content Team Position

Chainalysis' content team produces the reports that shape how the world understands cryptocurrency. Working alongside our in-house subject matter experts and investigators, our writers translate on-chain activity into clear, actionable insights for regulators, law enforcement and intelligence agencies, compliance teams, and journalists. We cover global policy, DeFi, sanctions enforcement, mixing services, and more — but above all, we're storytellers making sense of a complex subject. As a member of our team, you'll help define Chainalysis' public voice, producing work cited by the world's leading publications.

In this role, you'll:

• Write quick-turn blog posts that break down the news of the day.
• Collaborate with subject-matter experts to document criminal crypto activity.
• Contribute to our biannual flagship reports on crypto crime and the global on-chain economy.
• Develop long-term content ideas alongside our Research and Marketing teams.
• Investigate complex trends across DeFi and mainstream crypto adoption.
• Use Chainalysis' investigative tools to strengthen your storytelling.
• Own the accuracy of your work from sourcing to publication.

We're looking for candidates who have:

• 3+ years of professional writing experience, ideally in a newsroom or comparable editorial environment.
• Demonstrated ability to explain complex financial, technical, or regulatory topics in plain language — without buzzwords.
• Working knowledge of the crypto industry, including how blockchains, exchanges, DeFi protocols and stablecoins function in practice.
• Experience adapting tone and voice for distinct audiences (e.g., policymakers, compliance professionals, general readers).
• A bachelor's degree in a writing-intensive field (journalism, English, communications, etc.) or equivalent professional experience.

Nice to have experience:

• Comfort navigating a block explorer.
• Experience writing SQL or similar queries.
• Experience growing an audience on social media for a brand or publication.

Technologies we use:

• Workday
• Ashby
• Atlassian
• Slack
• Google Workspace
• ADP
• Activpayroll
• Deel
• Okta
• Internal AI tools (emerging)

AI at Chainalysis AI is not a feature at Chainalysis - it is a new way of working. One that turns instructions into work done, and helps us move faster than the threats we're built to counter, and we expect our employees to take ownership of the output and ensure quality. As the world's most trusted blockchain analytics platform, Chainalysis sits at a rare intersection of proprietary data, regulatory relationships and crypto expertise that makes it uniquely placed to shape and lead the next era of AI-driven intelligence - and we expect everyone here, regardless of role, to be an active part of it. AI fluency is tied directly to how we measure performance and how we plan to win. There is no substitute for your own curiosity. We provide the tools, workflows, and space to experiment - but the expectation is that you develop these capabilities yourself, bring ideas, and collaborate across teams to reinvent the way work gets done. We are not using AI to do less. We are using it to do what was never possible before.
