Nansen.ai application questions — all 8, word for word
Nansen.ai hires through Greenhouse. Beyond name, email and CV, its application form asks 8 questions, 6 of them required. 1 of them is a required, fixed-choice question about your eligibility to work. A cover letter is optional.
4 roles were open when this was last checked, mostly in support and legal. The questions below are the form's own wording, not a paraphrase.
What Nansen.ai has open
These are the roles the form was read from, as Nansen.ai titles them, in Bhutan, Remote Europe, Remote Europe | Remote Asia:
- Senior Data Engineer
- Blockchain Compliance Analyst
- Customer Support Agent
- Senior Security Engineer
7 of the questions below are ones at most two of the 213 employers measured ask (median: 18), the least standard being “What security risks do you see in adopting internal LLM tools across engineering teams, and how would you mitigate them?”.
The eligibility questions
These are required, and answered from a fixed list rather than in your own words: work authorisation, visa sponsorship or security clearance. Employers often use questions like these to filter applications automatically, but Greenhouse's public data does not say whether Nansen.ai does — so treat them as the answers most likely to matter, not as a verdict. Answer them honestly either way.

Before you apply
Have the answers to the required questions ready before you open the form — Nansen.ai's asks for 6 of them, and Greenhouse does not save a partial application by default. Settle the eligibility questions first — they are the ones with no room to elaborate, so knowing your answer before you start tells you whether the rest of the form is worth your time.
