You are comfortable working independently, managing outside counsel relationships, and making judgment calls without hand-holding

You can juggle multiple workstreams simultaneously without losing track of the details

You bring good judgment on when to escalate and when to run with something

• You are genuinely curious about financial products and technology and energized by working at the intersection of both

5–8 years of legal experience, with meaningful in-house or law firm experience in fintech, consumer finance, or regulated financial services
