What are the responsibilities and job description for the IRA Operations Associate position at Unchained Capital?
At Unchained Capital, our mission is to help bitcoin holders achieve unprecedented financial freedom and control. Unchained products include originating loans backed by bitcoin, IRAs, providing multi-signature vaults utilizing collaborative custody, and buying bitcoin directly to vaults with keys that you control. We are looking for an IRA Operations Associate that has a passion to help our clients by providing exceptional support and service for each of these products.
Because Unchained Capital is dedicated to helping individuals and businesses hold their own bitcoin private keys, a lot of what we’re building and supporting is novel. Candidates with prior experience in bitcoin and especially multisig bitcoin custody are preferred, but this is not a requirement.

This person will be responsible for supporting the operations of Unchained’s IRA onboarding, which guides clients through setting up their account, processing order forms, and educating about multisig and collaborative custody with Unchained Capital. We expect the IRA Operations Associate to be a point of contact for clients going through the onboarding process, supporting the trading operations, client orders, ensuring tasks are completed, and pinpointing any bottlenecks. The right person for this role can relate to clients and has a general understanding of retirement accounts, private keys and multisignature.
