The posting

Role Overview:

ClarityPay is looking for a Corporate Counsel. This is a foundational hire for the legal and compliance team of a rapidly growing fintech, and it comes with built-in opportunity for professional growth and development.

The initial focus of this role will be commercial contracting, and responsibilities will quickly expand to include broader product, compliance, and operational support matters. This could be an ideal opportunity for a rock-solid transactional attorney with a desire to become an in-house generalist. It could also be a great match for a fintech generalist that wants to develop subject matter expertise on the transactional and operational aspects of a consumer lending program.

Key Responsibilities:

- Take a lead role in drafting and negotiating commercial contracts with merchants and vendors.

- Support business development, customer service, and other internal stakeholders in fielding legal and compliance questions.

- Serve as an in-house subject matter expert on the development and implementation of AI tools to legal workflows.

- Support ClarityPay’s growth and development efforts with accurate and pragmatic regulatory advice and in-depth legal risk assessments relevant to the company’s development of new financial products.

- Develop additional legal and compliance resources for contracting and regulatory compliance.

- Collaborate on the resolution of inquiries and complaints from customers and regulators.

- Collaborate on the development and improvement of internal policies, procedures, and processes.

- Project-manage various key legal and compliance projects.

- Support or own other legal projects as determined by the Chief Legal & Compliance Officer.

Qualifications:

· JD from a top tier law school and a license to practice in good standing in primary state of residence.

· 3+ years total legal experience.

· At least 2 years of law firm experience.

· Significant contract drafting and negotiation experience.

· In-depth familiarity with consumer financial services matters generally.

· Strong legal research skills.

· Strong written and verbal communication skills.

· Ability to learn and leverage new technology quickly and effectively.

Bonus Points:

· Prior experience in fintech lending.

· Broad legal experience covering transactional, regulatory, and dispute resolution matters.

· Prior experience performing in-depth legal risk assessments on consumer financial services regulations.

· Experience supporting the compliance function of a consumer lender or lending platform.

· Experience working with regulators to quickly and effectively resolve inquiries, complaints, or information requests.

What We Offer:

- Competitive compensation and equity package.

- Comprehensive benefits (medical, dental, vision).

- Collaborative office culture with a strong product mindset.

- Opportunities to grow, lead, and shape the future of consumer finance.

- 401k program with employer match.

Role Details:

- Preference for candidates near our headquarters in New York, NY or the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area.

- Limited travel is expected, primarily for corporate gatherings and industry conferences.

- This role will report to the Chief Legal & Compliance Officer.

Salary Range: $180,000 to $220,000 per year.

Salary range is an approximation and will depend on market data applied to factors like the candidate’s skills and experience, geographic location, and compensation/equity mix.

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
