• Coordinate with Legal, Compliance, Finance, and Operations teams to ensure license obligations are embedded into day-to-day operations.

• Track deadlines, renewals, and obligations in a centralized system and ensure proactive renewals and regulatory updates.

• Monitor regulatory developments globally and flag changes that may impact licensing strategy or requirements.

• Contribute to process improvements to make licensing more scalable, efficient, and audit-ready.

What you will bring to Rain

• Minimum 2 years’ experience in regulatory licensing, compliance, legal, or related fields (preferably within fintech, payments, or financial services).
