Full Job Description
About the Role

You are a data-driven truth seeker and strategic operator. You're comfortable being handed a problem with no clean answer - ambiguous regulatory language, incomplete data, competing interpretations - and turning it into a clear recommendation. You move fast without cutting corners on the details that actually matter, and you know how to bring Legal, Engineering, Product, Design and Ops along with you rather than working around them.
You're excited about this opportunity because you will...
  • Have the opportunity to influence and align across the company - partner with Engineering, Design, Product, Marketing, and Ops to turn a regulatory requirement into a shipped operational change and new user experience
  • Move at the pace regulatory deadlines demand, prioritizing ruthlessly and being able to pivot quickly and seamlessly while bringing your cross functional partners along for the ride
  • Own and build durable processes end to end, not just identify one-off fixes - the frameworks and monitoring you put in place should outlast the specific regulation that prompted them
We're excited about you because you have...
  • Bachelor's Degree
  • 3+ years of experience in consulting, strategy, operations, technology, investment banking, analytics or related experience; high-growth experience preferred
  • Interest operating in a fast-paced, ownership-driven environment
  • Experience contributing to large projects, hitting goals, and succeeding in a team environment
  • Proven problem solving and analytical skills; proficiency in SQL and expertise in Excel (can maintain complex spreadsheets/sheets) are required
  • Ability to thoughtfully consider multiple perspectives and effectively communicate them to drive understanding and alignment
