TRM is seeking a Lead Instructor to design and deliver training on cyber investigations and OSINT for public and private sectors. This remote full-time role offers a salary of $155,000 - $175,000 per year.
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. TRM Labs is on a mission to build a safer world by fighting crime and protecting the people who investigate it. We started as a blockchain intelligence company — helping law enforcement, government agencies, financial institutions, and businesses detect, investigate, and disrupt crypto-enabled crime — and today our platform reaches well beyond the blockchain. We fuse on-chain data with cyber and open-source intelligence (OSINT) so investigators can move from a single crypto address to the full story behind a criminal network. Our blockchain intelligence and AI intelligence platforms turn fragmented signals into fast, defensible investigative leads for the teams protecting public safety and national security every day. To accomplish this mission, TRM Academy delivers a personalized learning platform where anyone, anywhere can learn at their own pace how to detect and prevent fraud and financial crime involving cryptocurrencies. It is a global community of Learners including the world's experts in blockchain, crypto compliance, and financial crime investigations. Learners also get access to personalized courses, instructional videos, practice exercises, exclusive events, and more.
The Impact You'll Have Here
- Program manage and conduct live and virtual training on cyber, OSINT, and CTI tradecraft for a global community of public-sector and government learners.
- Design and build curriculum, learning modules, labs, and practical exercises — in writing, mixed media, and in-person briefings — that enable learners and other instructors to deliver and apply the material.
- Teach across TRM's AI intelligence and blockchain intelligence platforms, helping analysts combine cyber and OSINT tradecraft with on-chain tracing to build complete, defensible cases.
- Develop train-the-trainer materials, instructor guides, and reusable content so TRM Academy can scale its cyber and OSINT offerings.
- Proactively identify, build, and manage relationships with government and industry partners to add new Learners to the TRM Academy cadre.
- Keep course materials current with the evolving threat landscape — including ransomware, nation-state activity, phishing, account takeovers (ATOs), sim swaps, hacks and exploits, and other cyber-enabled crime.
- Maintain a working proficiency in cyber investigative techniques, OSINT methodology, threat actor tracking, and intelligence analysis and reporting.
- Please note: This role requires travel of 50–75%.
What We're Looking For
- 3–5+ years of experience instructing courses, leading trainings, or delivering technical instruction.
- Hands-on experience in cyber investigations, OSINT, and/or cyber threat intelligence (CTI) (core requirement).
- Experience working in or with the public sector / government — for example, in a cyber division, intelligence unit, or agency cyber program — or a proven track record training these audiences.
- Proven experience building course content — curriculum, labs, practical exercises, and appropriate testing — that enables others to learn and teach.
- Comfortable training private-sector audiences as well, such as security teams, crypto businesses/VASPs, and financial institutions.
- Excellent oral and written communication skills.
- Ability to command the room.
- AI fluency (this is part of our new performance review process and is also part of the interview process!)
Nice to Have
- Law enforcement experience — federal and/or state, local, and education (SLED).
- Blockchain, cryptocurrency, or digital assets knowledge, including on-chain investigations or money laundering typologies.
- Relevant certifications (e.g., GIAC such as GCTI or GOSI, or similar cyber/OSINT credentials).
