  2. Possession of FINRA Series 14, 6, 63, and/or 24 licenses.
  3. Experience interacting with relevant regulatory bodies (FINRA, SEC, OSC).
  4. Familiarity with cross-border securities transactions.
  5. In-house legal experience within a publicly traded organization.

Benefits

  1. Opportunity to engage in ownership of a rapidly expanding early-stage startup through our employee stock option plan.
  2. Comprehensive health and dental coverage fully funded by the employer, along with a health spending account.
  3. Preference for candidates willing to work in our headquarters or travel periodically.
  4. An active social calendar featuring bi-weekly catered lunches, team workouts, annual celebrations, and team-building events.
