The ideal candidate understands how regulatory requirements intersect with product design and revenue models.
Conduct regulatory analysis and provide pragmatic, risk-based advice to ensure Coda’s compliance across payments/fintech, e-commerce, consumer protection, AML/sanctions, and technology-related domains.
Support regulatory assessments for new products, market entries, and structural changes, including preparing internal position papers and engaging with regulators where necessary.
Collaborate with the global Legal, Compliance/Risk, Commercial, and Product teams to provide regulatory guidance and support global projects, initiatives, deals, and strategic transactions.
Support Coda’s licensing strategy, including regulatory applications, RFIs, supervisory engagements, and ongoing regulatory reporting obligations.
Maintain and enhance Coda’s regulatory tracker/database, ensuring timely updates and clear, actionable regulatory insights for stakeholders.
Draft, review, and implement agreement templates, regulatory disclosures, and internal compliance policies and procedures.
Instruct and manage external counsel, including scoping advice, reviewing deliverables, and managing budgets.
Engage with regulators and government authorities where required, and support relationship-building with key regulatory stakeholders.

Exposure to cross-border regulatory and product launch strategy.
Ability to operate independently on complex regulatory matters with sound commercial judgment.
Strong drafting, negotiation, and stakeholder management skills.
Commercially pragmatic, solutions-oriented, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment.
