Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Kin makes life simpler, more affordable, and better for homeowners through smarter homeowners insurance and related products. Kin is seeking an Operations & Compliance Analyst to own the licensing, reporting, audit, vendor review, and operational processes for its home lending program, Kin Financing. The role will initially manage established processes and then improve them as the business expands into new products, states, and partnerships.
Responsibilities
- Own ongoing reporting obligations to licensing bodies, investors, warehouse lenders, and service providers, and manage the renewal calendar for all Kin Financing lending licenses
- Run the application process for new state licenses, warehouse lenders, investors, and service providers from first filing through approval
- Maintain Kin Financing's policies and procedures so they stay an accurate record of how the business actually operates
- Coordinate audits end to end and own post-audit remediation through closure
- Drive the review and approval process for Kin Financing vendor contracts in partnership with Kin's Legal, Finance, and Information Security teams
- Document the processes you inherit, then refine them — once you know the work well enough to see where it could run better, bring us the changes
- Use AI tools to work faster and with better coverage — researching regulatory requirements, drafting first-pass policy and process documentation, and reducing the manual load of recurring reporting
Skills
- 1-3 years of working experience required
- • Bachelor's degree
- • 1–3 years of professional experience in a role with recurring hard deadlines and external-facing obligations — reporting, filings, client deliverables, vendor or partner coordination
- • A track record of accurate work in a context where mistakes carry consequences — filings, financial records, contracts, regulated reporting, or similar
- • Experience picking up unfamiliar rules, systems, or procedures quickly and getting them right, asking questions early rather than guessing
- • Experience taking over work from someone else and running it without needing it re-explained
- • Written and verbal communication that stands on its own with external parties like regulators, auditors, lenders, and vendors, without leadership rewriting it first
- • Interest in growing into program or project management — this role is built as a path into PMO or adjacent work at Kin Financing, not a stationary compliance position
- For all other positions, these roles can sit in any of the following 41 states: AL, AR, AZ, CA (exempt only), CO, CT, FL, GA, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, MA, ME, MD, MI, MN, MO, MT, NC, NE, NJ, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WA, and WI. Please only apply if you are able to live and work full-time in one of the states listed above
