Job Overview
Position: Remote Head of Tokenized Asset Infrastructure & Compliance Modeling – Bahrain Fintech Integration Initiative
Location: Remote (Manama-aligned hours preferred)
Sector: Fintech | Tokenization | RegTech | Digital Asset Infrastructure | Capital Market Innovation
Job Type: Full-Time | Remote | Systems Engineering + Regulatory Strategy
Seniority Level: Executive / Technical Policy Architect
Strategic Overview:
Bahrain, the first GCC country to establish a regulatory sandbox and license crypto asset services, is uniquely positioned to lead in tokenized financial infrastructure. The Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB) has demonstrated agility in regulating digital finance, yet a cohesive, market-wide infrastructure for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, compliant digital securities, and multi-jurisdictional clearing protocols remains underdeveloped.
This role is designed for a fintech infrastructure strategist who can build the technical, legal, and governance layers for Bahrain’s future tokenized capital market.
Core Objectives:
-
Architect a multi-layered, modular infrastructure that enables tokenization of equities, sukuk, REITs, and ESG-linked bonds across blockchain and traditional exchanges.
-
Develop compliance-aware token standards (e.g., ERC-3643, RWA-specific extensions) that dynamically enforce KYC, jurisdictional restrictions, and AML conditions on-chain.
-
Build smart contract frameworks for lifecycle events—subscription, dividend distribution, early redemption, secondary trading clearance—while preserving investor protections.
-
Design a real-time compliance policy engine that integrates CBB directives, sandbox approvals, and capital market rules into programmable logic.
-
Collaborate with Bahrain Bourse, fintechs, and custodians to facilitate dual-listed digital asset issuance, enabling simultaneous trading of conventional and tokenized securities.
-
Lay the groundwork for interoperability with GCC-wide financial infrastructures (e.g., Tadawul, ADX, DFM) to support cross-border security flows.
Ideal Profile:
-
10+ years in capital markets infrastructure, digital asset protocols, or regulatory technology.
-
Mastery of blockchain token standards, smart contract security, and distributed identity frameworks.
-
Experience navigating securities regulations in at least one mature jurisdiction.
-
Strategic thinker with a systems-level approach to financial interoperability and compliance automation.
Desirable Enhancements:
-
Prior work in GCC regulatory sandboxes or with sovereign fintech initiatives.
-
Knowledge of Islamic capital markets and tokenized sukuk structuring.
-
Proficiency in Arabic and experience in stakeholder alignment across regulators, exchanges, and fintech consortia.
Strategic Opportunity:
-
Shape the legal and technical foundations of GCC capital market tokenization.
-
Influence the next generation of compliant asset infrastructure for sovereign and private stakeholders.
-
Remote leadership with direct engagement in regulatory transformation and global token finance diplomacy.
