Job Description

About Kody

Kody is a high-growth FinTech company revolutionizing in-person and digital commerce across hospitality and retail. Kody empowers merchants to scale effortlessly across borders. We are expanding our next-generation payment infrastructure globally.

Role Overview

We are looking for a forward-thinking Product Compliance Manager to bridge the gap between financial regulations and cutting-edge product design across both our UK/European and Hong Kong markets.

In this role, you will champion "Compliance-by-Design," embedding regulatory integrity into the product development lifecycle from ideation to deployment. You will collaborate directly with Product Managers, Engineers, and Commercial teams to design frictionless, fully compliant user journeys for POS solutions, Open Banking / Pay-by-Bank workflows, and cross-border settlement rails.

Key Responsibilities

• Compliance-by-Design & Product Advisory:
• Frictionless KYB & Merchant Onboarding:
• Scheme & Partner Alignment:
• Cross-Border Expansion & Consumer Protection:

Requirements

• Experience: 3–6+ years in Product Compliance, Regulatory Technology (RegTech), or Compliance Engineering within a regulated FinTech, PSP, payment gateway, or card acquirer.
• Technical & Product Fluency: Proven ability to read API docs, understand data flows, and translate regulatory policies into technical architecture and UI/UX requirements.
• Payments & Open Banking Expertise: Solid understanding of modern payment mechanisms—especially Open Banking / Pay-by-Bank, QR payments, POS card acquiring, and SEPA/Faster Payments/FPS.
• Dual-Market Knowledge: Strong familiarity with UK/European regulatory frameworks (FCA, PSD2/SCA, Consumer Duty) and Hong Kong standards (HKMA Open API/SVF expectations, AMLO, PDPO).
• Problem-Solver Mindset: Business-enabler attitude; thrives on finding compliant "how we can" pathways rather than simply saying "no".
• Languages: Full professional English proficiency; working proficiency in Cantonese or Mandarin is a strong asset for cross-regional collaboration.

Benefits

• Highly Collaborative & Empowering Culture: Work alongside ambitious, passionate, and supportive teammates across offices. We embrace open communication, flat hierarchies, and high-trust collaboration where your voice genuinely shapes product decisions.
• A High-Growth, Promising Venture: Join us at an inflection point. As a fast-scaling FinTech rewiring global commerce, we offer massive room for career growth, meaningful ownership, and the opportunity to build the future of omni-channel payments across Europe and Asia.
• Highly Competitive Compensation: We offer an attractive remuneration package designed to reward high-impact contributors.
