trm-labs - Global Investigations, Sextortion
Requirements
• Law-enforcement experience. Experience as a current, former, or retired law-enforcement professional, including sworn officers, investigators, or task-force officers. Candidates with backgrounds in state, local, or federal investigations — particularly ICAC task forces or similar cybercrime, child-exploitation, financial-crime, or digital-investigations teams — are strong fits. • OSINT investigations background. Demonstrated experience using open-source intelligence to identify online actors, aliases, accounts, infrastructure, communication patterns, linked personas, and operational networks. • Financial-investigations experience. Experience investigating the payment methods commonly used in these cases, including payment apps, gift cards, and crypto-enabled flows. You can follow funds across platforms, identify relevant selectors, and develop leads that support law-enforcement action, platform referrals, and infrastructure disruption. You do not need to be the world’s deepest blockchain specialist, but you must be able to follow the money confidently and document what matters. • Sextortion or victim-centered cybercrime investigation experience. You understand the sensitivity, urgency, and victim impact of sextortion cases, and you can investigate quickly without losing rigor, discretion, or care. • Legal-process familiarity. Working knowledge of preservation requests, subpoenas, and 2703(d) orders, including how to draft requests, interpret returns, and move quickly from a selector to an investigative lead. • 5-7 years of investigative experience across OSINT, cybercrime, crypto investigations, asset recovery, law enforcement, trust and safety, blockchain analytics, or equivalent. • Experience producing investigative packages that can support formal legal, compliance, platform escalation, asset-preservation, or enforcement workflows. • Creative tactical thinking. You can pivot from one handle, wallet, image, phone number, email, username, transaction, or platform account into a broader network view. • A bias to action. Handed something you've never seen, you figure out the first move and take it. When the playbook stops, you keep going — and you think in outcomes, not lanes. • AI fluency. You use AI tools in your workflow to synthesize returns, cluster leads, draft outputs, accelerate analysis, and improve investigative speed, with examples of how AI has materially impacted your work. • US citizenship and the ability to obtain Public Trust clearance.
