  • Develop and maintain, and advise on, policies, procedures and controls to ensure corporate governance and securities compliance
  • Collaborate with legal and compliance team members to enhance legal operations and processes
  • Assist legal and compliance team members in other projects as needed, including product counseling and related research, marketing and promotional review and other matters
  • Manage day-to-day interactions with business partners, outside counsel, and other stakeholders

About You

  • 4 to 7 years of relevant law firm or in-house experience; a background working on public company securities law matters in the fintech / regulated consumer-facing financial services industries a plus
  • JD Degree from an accredited law school and license in good standing to practice law in the United States

  • Comfortable in dynamic, fast-paced environments, with an entrepreneurial spirit and willingness to roll up your sleeves and do the work
  • Excellent problem solving and communication skills that allow you to make clear, pragmatic recommendations
  • Excited by our mission to positively change the financial path of every hard-working American by rewiring the banking system
