About the role

Flex is building a next-generation compliance function where AI-enabled systems and human expertise work together to scale regulatory oversight without slowing product innovation. As Associate Director, Product Compliance, you will be a senior individual contributor on the Product Compliance team, reporting to the Head of Product Compliance and partnering closely with Product, Engineering, Legal, Risk, Marketing, and bank partners to enable compliant innovation across Flex’s lending and payments ecosystem.

What they're looking for

  • 8+ years of experience in product compliance, compliance advisory, or regulatory risk roles within fintech, consumer lending, payments, banking, or financial services
  • A hands-on operator with high personal throughput: you own complex reviews yourself, document precisely, and are comfortable being accountable for outcomes without a team
  • Deep working knowledge of consumer protection regulations for lending and payments, with a demonstrated ability to translate requirements into product guardrails that hold up under scrutiny
  • An effective partner to product and engineering teams during development, you influence decisions through clarity and credibility rather than authority
  • AI & Compliance Modernization Experience
  • A daily user of AI tools in your own work, with experience operating or implementing AI-enabled compliance tooling, automation, or agent-based workflows within compliance, risk, or product governance functions
