About us
We’re a fast-growing fintech on a mission to redefine how Latin America manages its finances and this is your opportunity to be a crucial part of that transformation. Join a team of top talent from the world’s leading fintech and tech companies, and help build a cross-border financial system that’s modern, accessible, and built to scale.
Who we’re looking for
A Compliance Lead to design and run our US compliance function from day one. This is a hands-on, operational role for someone who thrives in building programs from scratch - owning BSA/AML, fraud prevention, and partner oversight while working side-by-side with product and operations to make compliance a core part of how we scale. You’ll have the autonomy to shape our compliance strategy, the tools to execute it, and the opportunity to be the go-to compliance leader for our US business.
What you’ll do
Build and scale our compliance infrastructure by partnering with LATAM compliance teams to align US practices where needed.
Manage compliance oversight with US sponsor banks, auditors, and regulators, including reviews, examinations, and reporting.
Drive ongoing reviews of our compliance program by identifying gaps against regulatory requirements and shaping action plans to strengthen controls.
Own key pillars of the compliance program - from policy design and implementation to audits and continuous improvements.
Support regulatory filings and readiness for new product launches or market expansions.
Partner with product, engineering, and operations to embed compliance requirements into systems and workflows.
Act as the designated compliance officer for our Registered Investment Advisor (RIA).
Translate regulatory changes (Reg E, UDAAP, BSA) into updated policies, processes, and controls.
Leverage data and tooling to monitor compliance performance, detect risks, and produce meaningful reports.
Deliver compliance training and foster a “compliance-by-design” culture across teams.
What you’ll need to succeed
5+ years in US compliance operations or payments compliance roles
Proven success building or scaling compliance programs at a fintech, neobank, or payments company.
Strong knowledge of US payments regulation, including Reg E, UDAAP, and BSA.
Experience working directly with banks, regulators, and auditors.
Comfort with data and compliance tooling to track performance and risks.
A builder mindset with the ability to thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments.
