You'll work closely with Loan Operations, Servicing, Marketing, Engineering and Compliance to give a niche, high net worth market a best in class experience. We're an AI first team, and we want a leader who uses tools like Claude every day to move faster, serve more clients and build a sales function that scales with technology, not just headcount. A deep understanding of cryptocurrency is a must!
