Fintech rent payments with flexible credit
Flex is a growth-stage, NYC headquartered FinTech company that is building the payment layer for life's financial obligations, giving households one place to see, split, and pay their bills around how they live and get paid. By offering greater choice over how and when payments are made and allowing eligible on time payments to help build a positive credit history, Flex puts households back in control of their cash flow.
That work brings together people with different perspectives who challenge the status quo and take ownership of solving difficult problems. For you, that means doing the best work of your career next to people who make you better, and together bringing ideas to life that make a real impact for the people we serve.
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.
This is a hands-on execution role, not a people leadership role. You will not run the team, manage staff, or own the function's strategy; the Head of Product Compliance owns those. You will carry the most complex advisory work yourself and make the function faster by running and improving AI-enabled review workflows, clear standards, and disciplined documentation rather than by adding headcount.

Flex is a fintech that helps people with irregular income or cash-flow issues by offering a flexible line of credit for rent. It pays the user’s rent in full to the landlord when due, and the user repays Flex in two installments at their convenience. The service is accessed through a user-friendly app and funded by recurring fees: a $14.99 monthly membership and a bill-payment fee. Unlike traditional lenders, Flex focuses specifically on rent payments to stabilize both tenants and landlords, enabling renters to align payments with their income flow. The company differentiates itself by combining a rent-focused line of credit with a simple two-part repayment model rather than a standard one-time loan. Its goal is to improve personal cash flow management for tenants while ensuring landlords receive timely rent payments.
