ABOUT WINCENT We are a team of 150+ people, primarily Engineers, Traders and Quants, focused on HFT with ~1% of global crypto trading volume. Being a bit weird, we • Are self-taught; our founders do not come from any of the big HFTs • Chose to have no VCs on cap-table; this spot is for our colleagues • Made Bratislava the central hub, not London or Amsterdam ABOUT THE ROLE We operate in a fast-moving, regulated, and ambiguous environment. Compliance is not a support function here. It is directly tied to whether we can trade, onboard counterparties, and scale. This role sits at the center of that. You will help execute the operational layer of Compliance and Legal. That means running onboarding, tracking multiple parallel workstreams, and making sure nothing slips between Compliance, other internal departments and external counterparties. This is a hands-on execution role. You will not observe processes. You will run them, improve them, and fix them when they break.

Handshakes are sacred for us: Being in the money making business is good, but that alone is not worth our soul; we follow the motto “Be the good guys in the market”. 2.
