We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company's hardest problems.

Our work culture is intense and isn't for everyone. But if you want to build the future alongside others who excel in their disciplines and expect the same from you, there's no better place to be.

  • Monitor remediation plans when KPIs are in breach

  • Prepare regulatory filings required by Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA)

What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):

  • 10+ years of technical program management experience at a technology company and/or in a fintech company.
  • 5+ years of experience in compliance, risk management or financial services
  • Experience working with compliance regulations such as DORA, BAIT, EBA ICT & SRM or similar regulations
  • Enjoy solving hard problems and can turn incomplete, conflicting, or ambiguous inputs into action plans
