Technical Recruiter, EMEA

The R&D team at Chainalysis is inspired by solving the hardest challenges and building products that establish trust in cryptocurrencies. We're a global organization that thrives on challenging work and doing it alongside exceptionally talented teammates. Our industry evolves rapidly, and our mission is to build a flexible, AI-driven platform that automates entity resolution, optimizes data labeling pipelines, and creates predictive models that identify illicit patterns before they escalate.

Our data and solutions have been used to solve some of the world's most high-profile criminal cases and grow consumer access to cryptocurrency safely. Now, by pairing the industry's most trusted blockchain data with agents that reason, investigate, and act, we help our customers scale their workflows as the cryptocurrency economy becomes increasingly mainstream.

Talent Acquisition at Chainalysis is a small, close-knit team that partners with leaders across the business to hire the people who will carry our mission forward. We share sourcing wins, market learnings, and process improvements openly, and we hold ourselves to a high bar for both results and candidate experience.

We are hiring a Technical Recruiter to own and drive hiring for Engineering & Product roles in our EMEA locations. This is a high-volume, outbound-heavy role: you'll spend a meaningful portion of your time building pipeline through direct sourcing, identifying and engaging top engineering talent across AI, Crypto, and Fintech. You'll manage a full requisition load, move fast, and close strong candidates in a competitive market, with Software Engineering roles among your key hires. You'll work closely with hiring managers across our R&D teams as a talent partner who understands the business and delivers results.

In this role, you'll:

• Build pipeline through proactive outbound sourcing, mapping the AI, crypto, and fintech landscape to find where strong Software Engineers work today

• Develop creative sourcing strategies that go beyond LinkedIn InMails, including referral generation, community engagement, and direct outreach campaigns

• Own the full recruiting lifecycle for R&D roles, from intake and sourcing through offer negotiation and close, across a high-volume requisition load

• Deliver a thoughtful, personalised, and transparent candidate experience at every step while moving candidates through the process efficiently

• Partner with R&D leaders to calibrate expectations, share market insights on talent availability and compensation, and flag risks early so hiring plans stay on schedule

• Use data on pipeline health, conversion rates, and channel effectiveness to guide decisions, and champion diversity and inclusion in every search

We're looking for candidates who have:

• 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience with a strong track record of hiring technical talent, such as Software Engineers, Data Scientists, Researchers, and Product Managers

• Demonstrated outbound sourcing ability: you build your own pipeline through direct outreach and do not rely on inbound applications to fill roles

• High AI proficiency, using it for building pipeline proactively, workflows, processes, and documentation

• Proven experience recruiting technical talent within the SaaS, AI, Blockchain, and Cybersecurity sectors, with a focus on candidates who have worked in fast-paced companies building technically complex products

• Consistently utilised data to inform decision making and advise hiring managers through the hiring process

• Strong organisational skills, sharp attention to detail, and consistent follow-through on every candidate and requisition

• The ability to build credibility with hiring managers quickly, communicate market realities clearly, and guide decisions with data, in a collaborative, low-ego way

You might also have:

• Experience recruiting for Blockchain companies with a focus on Engineering roles

• A background at a high-growth scale up technology company

• A track record of hiring for technical roles in Denmark, Israel, UK, and the USA

Tools we use:

• Ashby ATS

• Sourcing tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, Nova AI, GitHub)

• Coderpad

• Google suite, Slack, Chain AI

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.
