U S Treasurer

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. Customer interest and trading volumes in this space have surged, and Crypto.com is investing heavily to scale its regulated prediction-markets and derivatives business. The Treasury function sits right at the center of that growth — safeguarding customer funds and ensuring the liquidity that keeps these markets running. Role Overview 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. 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.

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.
