Role summary
OKX is seeking a Senior Compliance Manager for its Tokenized Securities Venue (TSV) in the Americas, a joint venture with Intercontinental Exchange operating under an SEC exemption. This role is critical for ensuring compliance with the exemption's ongoing conditions, managing public and issuer notices, monitoring trading limits, overseeing participant onboarding (including KYC/KYB and on-chain screening), and reporting to leadership and the board. The ideal candidate will have 8+ years of compliance experience in regulated financial environments, a strong understanding of federal securities laws applicable to trading venues, and familiarity with blockchain-based trading. This is an opportunity to build and run a compliance program for a novel market structure.
Who We Are
At OKX, we believe that the future will be reshaped by crypto, and ultimately contribute to every individual's freedom. OKX is a leading crypto exchange, and the developer of OKX Wallet, giving millions access to crypto trading and decentralized crypto applications (dApps). OKX is also a trusted brand by hundreds of large institutions seeking access to crypto markets. We are safe and reliable, backed by our Proof of Reserves. Across our multiple offices globally, we are united by our core principles: We Before Me, Do the Right Thing, and Get Things Done. These shared values drive our culture, shape our processes, and foster a friendly, rewarding, and diverse environment for every OK-er.
About the Opportunity
The Americas Compliance team is hiring a Senior Compliance Manager to own compliance for OKXICE TSV. OKXICE TSV is the tokenized securities venue run by the OKX and Intercontinental Exchange joint venture under the SEC's Innovation Exemption, and it lets eligible US users trade tokenized US-listed stocks on-chain. You'll be the main person accountable for meeting the exemption's ongoing conditions. You'll work closely with Legal, Product, Web3 Risk Control and our AML, Sanctions and Surveillance teams. This is a new role on a new type of venue, so you'll help build the program as well as run it.
What You'll Be Doing
Own the compliance program for the venue's SEC exemption, including tracking each condition, testing controls and keeping records ready for regulatory examination.
Manage the venue's public notice: review revisions, control versions, and make sure the notice matches how the product actually works. This includes corrections and material-change filings within the required deadlines.
Run the issuer notice process from start to finish, including tracking delivery, handling objections and confirming each stock's listing date.
Track and monitor TSV limits on an ongoing basis, including per-stock and volume limits against consolidated market data, periodic tier rechecks, trading halts and eligible stablecoins. Escalate breaches, significant operational events and required SEC notifications.
Oversee participant onboarding and ongoing wallet maintenance and monitoring, including KYC/KYB, daily sanctions and on-chain wallet rescreening, keeping wallet-to-participant records current, and issuing and revoking the soulbound token (SBT) credential that grants access.
Report to the OKXICE LLC Board of Managers and to Americas Compliance leadership, and manage and develop a TSV Compliance Analyst.
What We Look For In You
8+ years of compliance experience at a broker-dealer, exchange, alternative trading system (ATS) or digital asset firm, with direct experience of SEC-regulated activity.
Working knowledge of the federal securities laws that apply to trading venues, such as Regulation ATS, Regulation NMS and market manipulation rules, plus the ability to apply them to new market structures.
Experience building or running compliance programs under regulatory conditions, exemptive relief or no-action positions.
Familiarity with how blockchain-based trading works, including self-custodied wallets, smart contracts, liquidity pools and on-chain screening.
Strong drafting skills, with experience turning complex technical or legal detail into clear public disclosures and procedures.
Sound judgment and the ability to work with Product, Engineering and Legal teams across time zones.
Nice to Haves
Experience with tokenized securities, transfer agents or digital asset broker-dealers.
Exposure to OFAC sanctions programs and blocked property handling for on-chain assets.
Experience reporting to a board or joint venture governance body.
A JD or a similar legal background.
