Rapyd is seeking a Compliance Specialist to serve as the primary subject matter expert on Brazilian financial regulations and data privacy for their São Paulo operations. In this individual contributor role, you will own the regulatory framework across Brazil's fintech and payments ecosystem, with deep expertise in Central Bank of Brazil (BACEN) regulations, LGPD (Brazil's data privacy law), and payment aggregator standards. Key responsibilities include monitoring and implementing local regulatory changes, managing compliance reporting with financial market infrastructures (IMFs) like CERC and CIP, and ensuring operational readiness across evolving requirements. You will manage regulatory relationships, conduct audits, and respond to official inquiries from local authorities and ecosystem partners. The role requires drafting and maintaining compliance policies, internal controls, data privacy documentation, and commercial agreements tailored to Brazilian law. You will oversee anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorist financing (CTF), and know-your-customer (KYC) frameworks specific to Brazilian requirements, ensuring Rapyd's payment operations remain fully compliant. Partnering directly with global Legal and Risk teams, you will align local operations with Rapyd's strategic vision while navigating the complex intersection of fintech regulation, payment ecosystem rules, and data privacy law. Rapyd operates a global platform for payments, payouts, and fintech services with offices across Tel Aviv, Amsterdam, Singapore, Iceland, London, Dubai, Hong Kong, LATAM, and the U.S. The company values straight talk, quick decisions, strong execution, and elegant solutions. This is an opportunity to grow your career in a fast-moving fintech environment where regulatory expertise directly enables global commerce.
