- Ensuring all operations meet global compliance requirements and industry standards (in close partnership with the compliance team)
- Partnering with product, engineering, and finance teams to introduce tools that automate and improve workflows
- Using data to track performance, solve problems, and guide continuous improvements

- Understands the broader business context and can make informed, strategic decisions

- Have strong integrity and do the right thing

**What we offer**:

- Fully remote work environment - work from anywhere globally
- Transparent compensation and equity
- Our own Global Safety Net, giving you worldwide health, income, and travel coverage
- A minimum of four weeks of vacation per year
- Yearly personal development budget and office allowance
