Remote Deployment Strategist, APAC

Build a Safer World.

TRM Labs provides AI-powered intelligence solutions that help public and private sector agencies investigate and disrupt crime. TRM’s platforms enable investigators to trace illicit activity, build cases, and construct operating pictures of threat networks. Leading agencies and businesses worldwide rely on TRM to make the world safer and more secure.

At TRM Labs, our Deployment Strategy team is on the front lines of customer experience – bridging product expertise with exceptional customer support. The team ensures our customers receive timely, accurate, and high-quality assistance at every step. You will work daily with leading financial institutions, crypto exchanges, and regulators — providing value through expert guidance, responsive support, and trusted partnership.

As a Deployment Strategist (APAC), you will play a critical role in helping TRM customers realise the full value of our platform. You will partner with regulators, financial institutions, and crypto businesses to operationalize scalable compliance programs and disrupt financial crime across the crypto ecosystem. You will manage a portfolio of strategic accounts, driving adoption of TRM’s tools, and ensuring customers achieve measurable, long-term impact.

The impact you will have:

• Act as a trusted advisor, enabling regulators, financial institutions, and crypto businesses to maximise the effectiveness of our platform within their supervisory, risk, and compliance functions.

• Confidently explain complex technical and investigative concepts, supporting customer teams in interpreting blockchain data, building cases, and conducting financial crime investigations.

• Build and deliver product demonstrations tailored to compliance officers, analysts, supervisors, and risk teams across financial institutions, crypto businesses, and regulatory bodies.

• Conduct structured training sessions, delivered in English and Mandarin, to ensure TRM is embedded into customers’ day-to-day investigative and compliance programs.

• Serve as the “Voice of the Customer” by channeling customer feedback to product and engineering teams to influence product direction.

• Monitor customer engagement and usage trends, proactively identifying early signals of churn risk and implementing effective mitigation strategies.

• Establish a consistent engagement cadence with customer stakeholders to understand institutional priorities, regulatory obligations, and emerging risks.

• Proactively identify and surface expansion opportunities and growth signals within customer accounts and partnering with Account Directors to drive TRM’s Gross Revenue Retention (GRR) and Net Revenue Retention (NRR) targets.

What we’re looking for:

• 5+ years of professional experience, ideally within crypto businesses, financial institutions, or regulatory bodies — preferably in compliance, investigative, or customer-facing functions.

• Professional proficiency in English and Mandarin is required.

• Hands-on experience with virtual currencies and blockchain analytics, ideally within a compliance or investigative context.

• Proven ability to structure complex problems, prioritize critical issues, and deliver actionable solutions.

• Exceptional attention to detail and rigor, particularly in regulatory and investigative contexts.

• Ability to distill and communicate complex technical and investigative concepts to diverse stakeholders, from compliance officers to senior executives.

• Strong collaboration skills and ability to influence outcomes in cross-functional settings.

• Willingness and ability to travel occasionally for in-person meetings, trainings, or events.

About the Team:

• As a globally distributed team, we work across time zones to provide seamless support and collaboration for our customers.

• The APAC Deployment Strategy team plays a key role in this model, ensuring continuous customer engagement and partnership as part of TRM’s global coverage.

• Our Customer Success Team is fully remote, thriving on asynchronous communication through Slack and detailed documentation. We hold weekly Customer Syncs, bi-weekly health syncs, and join associated POD calls.

Team Operating Rhythms:

• Async-first with core overlap for APAC hours.

• Weekly Customer Syncs and bi-weekly health syncs.

• Regular POD calls and customer QBRs.

On-Call Responsibilities:

• Schedule: Minimal weekend monitoring for P0 and P1 issues.

• Frequency: Approximately 1 weekend per every 5 weeks.

Travel Requirements:

• Schedule: Occasional

Learn about TRM Speed in this position:

• You meet with an existing customer, capture their internal success metrics (OSMs), and draft a 30/60/90-day success plan to achieve them — all in the same week.

• You receive a bug report from a customer, coordinate internally across Product and Engineering to get answers and a fix, and close the loop with the customer — all in the same day.

• You surface an expansion opportunity on a customer call, validate it against CSQL criteria, and log the CSQL with the Account Director — within the same day.

Life at TRM

We are building a safer world. That promise shows up in how we work every day.

TRM moves quickly. We are a high velocity, high ownership team that expects clarity, follow-through, and impact. People who thrive here are energized by hard problems, experimentation, and continuous feedback. If something takes months elsewhere, it will ship here in days.

Our work sits at the intersection of AI, national security, and fighting crime. The problems are complex, the stakes are real, and the environment evolves quickly. The pace and intensity of the work reflect the importance of the mission. As a result, the way we operate requires a high level of ownership, adaptability, collaboration, and creative problem-solving.

At TRM, you should expect:

• Priorities and targets to change quickly as we experiment and iterate

• Work that often requires operating with a high degree of ambiguity

• A high level of personal ownership and accountability

• Close collaboration across teams and functions

• Frequent, high-touch communication

• Creative problem solving and out-of-the-box thinking

• A pace that rewards urgency, adaptability, and outcomes

This environment is energizing for people who enjoy building, solving hard problems, and making progress in situations that are not always fully defined. It also requires comfort navigating ambiguity, adjusting course as new information emerges, and maintaining focus and positivity in a fast-moving and intense environment.

We also recognize that this style of operating is not for everyone. If you are primarily optimizing for predictability or a consistently balanced workload, we encourage you to use the interview process to pressure test whether this environment is truly the right fit. We want teammates who thrive here, not just survive here.

At the same time, many people find this work deeply rewarding. If you are excited by meaningful problems, motivated by ambitious goals, and energized by working alongside mission-driven colleagues, there is a good chance you will find TRM to be an exceptional place to grow and contribute.
