HybridFinanceFull-time

Crypto.com is one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency and financial services platforms, founded in 2016 and serving customers across the globe. In the United States, Crypto.com operates a fully regulated derivatives business through Crypto.com | Derivatives North America (formerly the North American Derivatives Exchange, or Nadex) — a U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)-regulated Designated Contract Market and Derivatives Clearing Organization headquartered in Chicago — together with its affiliated Futures Commission Merchant (FCM), Foris DAX FCM LLC. This structure gives Crypto.com control over the full U.S. futures stack — exchange, clearing house, and broker — a regulated footprint that is rare among crypto-native firms. It places the business at the forefront of prediction markets: one of the fastest-growing and most closely watched categories in finance today, where customers trade on the outcomes of real-world events across economics, politics, sports, and culture.

About the role

Reporting to the Director of Finance and Accounting - Americas, the U.S. Treasurer leads the treasury function for Crypto.com’s U.S. and Canadian derivatives and prediction-markets entities, including the Futures Commission Merchant (FCM) and Nadex. Leading a team of four, the Treasurer owns cash and liquidity management, payments and settlement, banking relationships, custody operations, and treasury controls across multiple legal entities. This is a hands-on leadership role with a clear mandate to modernize the function through process automation and artificial intelligence (AI), operating in a highly regulated, deadline-driven environment where the continuous protection of customer funds and the sufficiency of liquidity are paramount. As one of the fastest-growing businesses in the industry, this is a rare opportunity to build and scale the treasury operations behind a rapidly expanding prediction-markets franchise.

Responsibilities

Leadership & Team Management

  • Lead, develop, and retain a high-performing U.S. Treasury team of four — setting clear goals, coaching team members, and holding the team to high standards of accuracy and accountability
  • Set clear, measurable expectations and hold team members accountable through performance scorecards — an accountability standard this role both champions and is measured against
  • Drive team performance and build bench strength, ensuring robust backup coverage across all critical treasury functions
  • Serve as a strategic treasury partner to senior business, Product, Trading, and Technology leadership
  • Coordinate with global treasury counterparts on shared priorities, deadlines, and upcoming product launches

Treasury, Cash & Liquidity Management

  • Own daily cash position monitoring across multiple legal entities, tracking balances, liquidity levels, capital requirements, and funding obligations
  • Direct daily treasury funding transfers, ensuring timely execution, confirmed settlement, accurate tracking, and prompt escalation of issues
  • Maintain sufficient liquidity to meet all customer and operational obligations at all times
  • Oversee daily reconciliations across trading systems and bank accounts, ensuring reconciling items, breaks, and exceptions are investigated and resolved promptly
  • Design and adjust flow-of-funds for new products, accounts, and banking arrangements, partnering closely with Product and Technology teams

  • Review and approve daily payments, wires, and vendor (accounts payable) disbursements across entities
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for banking partners, and manage bank account opening and closure for U.S. and Canadian entities
  • Administer banking and payment-portal access — entitlements, approval limits and authorities, multi-factor authentication (MFA), periodic access reviews, and segregation of duties
  • Oversee vault operations and custody settlement, including financial operations for trust and custody services (user administration, transaction policies, and token management) and review and approval of related invoices
  • Manage bank-partner due-diligence requests and cross-border foreign exchange (FX) settlement
  • Actively manage and drive down treasury-related costs — including bank account analysis fees — while optimizing interest income and earnings credit rate (ECR) across banking relationships
  • Respond to operational disruptions (e.g., exchange outages) that affect settlement, coordinating across Technology and third-party partners

Process Automation & AI

  • Champion the use of process automation and artificial intelligence (AI) to modernize treasury operations and improve efficiency, accuracy, controls, and scalability
  • Maintain and expand existing automations, including end-of-day reconciliation and reporting send-outs, transaction review and approval tracking, and daily balance reporting by entity
  • Define and execute the treasury automation roadmap, prioritizing high-impact opportunities across cash, settlement, reconciliation, and reporting

Regulatory, Audit & Compliance

  • Ensure ongoing compliance with customer-funds protection requirements and applicable National Futures Association (NFA) and CFTC obligations, including customer segregated funds (CFTC 1.20, 30.7, 22.2) and residual interest
  • Support regulatory reporting, regulatory examinations, and internal and external audit requests across the FCM, Nadex, and related entities
  • Manage state unclaimed-property reporting and other statutory compliance obligations
