Build to Protect Civilization

TRM is a blockchain intelligence company that’s on a mission to build a safer world for billions of people. We’re a lean, high-impact team tackling some of the world’s most critical challenges, ranging from human trafficking and financial fraud to terrorist financing. We are builders who power governments, financial institutions, and crypto companies when the clock is running and the consequences are real. This is why every TRMer is a bet on our future and has the power to change our trajectory.

We’re looking for a Full Stack Data Scientist / Machine Learning Engineer to join our Knowledge Layer team, a group focused on extracting, structuring, and analyzing knowledge from large-scale, unstructured data. This team sits at the intersection of knowledge graphs, entity resolution, graph extraction, and graph analytics, and plays a critical role in powering TRM’s core intelligence products.

While the team has strong backend and graph engineering expertise, we are looking for someone to be the machine learning and data science voice in the room — bringing practical ML expertise, especially in knowledge extraction and graph-based ML, to help accelerate and scale our capabilities.

This is an ideal role for someone who enjoys operating end-to-end: from model selection and experimentation, to productionizing ML systems and APIs.

The impact you will have:

Design, build, and productionize machine learning models focused on:
- Knowledge extraction from unstructured data (e.g., NER, entity linking)
- Graph-based learning and inference
- Entity resolution and relationship discovery
Evaluate and leverage existing ML models and frameworks to solve real-world problems efficiently
Partner closely with backend and graph engineers to integrate ML models into production services and APIs
Contribute to the design and evolution of knowledge graphs and ontologies
Perform exploratory data analysis (EDA) to inform modeling decisions and system design
Own ML components end-to-end, including experimentation, evaluation, deployment, and iteration
Help shape best practices for applied ML within the Knowledge Layer team

What we’re looking for:

5+ years of experience in data science, machine learning engineering, or applied ML
Strong programming experience in Python
Hands-on experience building, training, or deploying machine learning models in production
Familiarity with NLP or information extraction techniques, such as Named Entity Recognition (NER), text classification, or embedding-based approaches
Experience or strong interest in knowledge graphs, graph data, or graph-based ML
Solid software engineering fundamentals, including building and maintaining APIs or services
Ability to translate ambiguous problem spaces into practical ML solutions
Strong communication skills and comfort collaborating with engineers across disciplines

Life at TRM

We build to protect civilization. That promise shows up in how we work every day.

TRM runs fast. Really fast. We’re a high-velocity team that expects ownership, clarity, and follow-through. People who thrive here are inspired by hard problems, experimentation, direct feedback. If it takes months elsewhere, it often ships here in days. If you are optimizing primarily for consistent work-life balance, use the interview process to pressure-test fit. We want teammates who thrive here, not just survive here.

We coach directly, assume positive intent, and play for the front of the jersey.

What You’ll Do Here

This work has teeth. At TRM, your week might include:

Driving critical investigations that can’t wait for typical business hours.
Shipping products in days when others would schedule quarters.
Partnering with teams across time zones to deliver insights while the story is still unfolding.
Building new solutions from first principles when the playbook doesn’t yet exist.
Protecting victims and customers by tracing illicit activity and disrupting criminal networks.

Join our Mission

We look for people who want their work to matter, who build with speed and rigor, and who take pride in protecting others through their craft. If you’re excited by TRM’s mission but don’t check every box, apply anyway. We hire for slope, judgment, and the will to learn fast.

Build to protect civilization. Let’s do it together.
