• Answer library and records: Maintain our due diligence answer library and document repository (corporate docs, org chart, policies, audit and security reports) so every answer is current, accurate and reusable

Role Overview

Coinflow is seeking a Product Operations & Strategy Associate to keep our product machine running. Coinflow moves money for merchants around the world, and every bank, processor and enterprise partner wants to understand exactly how we work before they sign. As our Product Operations & Strategy Associate, you'll own those due diligence requests end to end, keep our Linear board an accurate picture of what's being built, and be the connective tissue between Product and every team that depends on it. You'll report to the Head of Product and work daily with Engineering, Risk & Compliance, Legal, Finance, Sales and Partnerships.

This is an operations role, and we mean that: most of your week is moving information between people, chasing answers, keeping records clean and running projects to done. It's a great fit for someone early in their career who gets real satisfaction from turning chaos into a reliable system, and who wants to learn how a modern payments company works from the inside.

Key Responsibilities

• Cross-team communication: Keep Sales, Support, Risk and Partnerships informed on what's shipping and changing; coordinate launch checklists, capture decisions and drive follow-ups from product meetings; run small cross-functional projects end to end
• Research and reporting: Prepare roadmap snapshots, release notes and status summaries for leadership; run competitive, market and vendor research and turn messy inputs into clear memos

Required Qualifications

• 1-3 years in operations, onboarding or implementation, compliance operations, project coordination, or Big 4 audit/advisory, ideally at a fintech, payments company or bank
• Excellent written communication; able to answer a partners question accurately in two clean sentences
• Strong attention to detail and comfort keeping many requests moving at once

• Comfortable with ambiguity and the pace of a high‑growth startup, and ready to work hard

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in payments, fintech, or financial services
• Familiarity with cards, ACH, other payment rails, or KYB/KYC/AML concepts
• Experience completing vendor, security, or bank due diligence questionnaires
• Experience being part of world class operations and high functioning product organizations.

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation including base salary, performance bonus, and meaningful ownership
• Broad exposure across product, compliance, partnerships, and engineering at a rapidly scaling fintech
• Direct work with the Head of Product and visibility into how leadership decides what to build
• Collaborative and innovative work environment with world-class investors

The base salary range for this role is $85,000 - $120,000 USD + equity. The actual base salary offered depends on a variety of factors, including but not limited to experience, education, skills, qualifications, and business needs.
