Work on the infrastructure that moves money.

Interchecks powers the payment rails behind some of the most recognized names in gaming and fintech — the account funding, real-time payouts, and pay-by-bank infrastructure that makes their products work. When a DraftKings user withdraws their winnings instantly, when FanDuel goes live in a new state and needs to process payouts from day one, when Credit Karma loads funds into a user's account — Interchecks is the reason it happens. We process billions in transactions for household names like DraftKings, FanDuel, Fanatics and BetMGM, and we're now expanding that same infrastructure into new fintech verticals.

We're a team of about 55 people — headquartered in Brooklyn, distributed across the country — building in payments since 2016. We're not a flashy consumer app, not chasing headlines. We're a serious payments infrastructure company that has quietly earned the trust of enterprise clients by doing the unglamorous, technically demanding work exceptionally well, now expanding aggressively into new fintech verticals.

What it's like to work here

We call it "chopping wood" — the idea that big outcomes come from consistently doing the hard, unsexy work with care and intention. It's not a motivational poster. It's how we actually operate.

People at Interchecks take real ownership. Not ownership in name only — the kind where you see a problem, figure out the solution, and see it through without waiting to be asked. We move fast, we hold ourselves to a high bar, and we trust each other to do the same. There's very little ego here. The team is sharp, and genuinely fun to work with — the kind of people who care deeply about what they're building but don't take themselves too seriously.

We're at a real inflection point. We've proven the model in gaming. Now we're building the GTM motion, marketing function, and sales org to take our infrastructure into new verticals. That means there's meaningful work to be done across almost every function — and room to have a real impact on where the company goes next.

What we look for

We hire people who are sharp, hungry, and direct. People who communicate well, take feedback seriously, and bring a little competitive fire without needing to be the loudest one in the room. We care less about pedigree and more about what you've actually done — and whether you're the kind of person who makes the people around you better.

We have high standards and we're not shy about it. But we also invest in the people who are here. We work hard and we celebrate it.

The basics

We're headquartered in Brooklyn, NY. We're remote-friendly. We offer competitive compensation, equity, benefits, and a 401K match.

About Interchecks

Interchecks is a fast-growing B2B2C fintech payments company powering how money moves in highly regulated industries. Our platform enables enterprise customers to embed secure, compliant payment experiences directly into their products, helping them move, manage, and monetize payments at scale.

We partner with some of the most recognizable operators in fintech and online gaming, solving complex payment and compliance challenges with modern infrastructure and thoughtful product design. We care deeply about building reliable technology, moving fast without cutting corners, and creating a company where smart, motivated people can do the best work of their careers.

The Opportunity
We're scaling our business across new verticals, sponsor banks and products, and our risk function needs to scale with it. This role sits at the intersection of execution and growth: you'll own and operate what we've built, help it scale and be ready to pivot when a new opportunity arises. New products, new partners and new regulatory challenges emerge quickly. The right person for the role is energized by that.

You'll work cross-functionally with operations, data, growth and product. This is a hands-on, individual contributor role; you will be building and executing. As the company scales, there is real opportunity to grow into a leadership role, too.

What You'll Own
The scope below reflects where we are today and will evolve with the business.

Sponsor bank relationships: Risk frameworks and monitoring for new and existing banking partners
Transaction monitoring and reporting: Uplift our transaction monitoring systems and unusual activity reporting
Network compliance: Visa, Mastercard and payment network rules/requirements; ACH compliance (NACHA)
Regulatory compliance: Federal and state regulations relevant to our products, operations, partners and customers
New vertical risk frameworks: Define onboarding, due diligence and risk policies for emerging products and markets
Risk reporting & analytics: Build internal management reporting, risk dashboards and support client-facing risk communications
Regulatory readiness: Support bank exams, audits and regulatory responses

Need To Have

Comfortable as an individual contributor on a small, fast-moving team (this is a do-er role, not a delegator role)
Ability to operate with ambiguity (comfortable building where structure doesn't exist)
Bias toward solutions (doesn't just surface problems)
Ownership mindset (accountable for outcomes)
Strong judgment and decision-making (assess tradeoffs with imperfect info)
Clear communicator (explain to non-experts, tailor messaging)
Regulatory and compliance fluency (has worked with regulators, audits, policies — knows how to operationalize financial services risk and compliance requirements)

Nice To Have

Experience scaling within a high-growth company
Cross-functional influence (partnering with Legal, Finance, Product)
Data-driven risk modeling comfort
Multi-jurisdictional experience
Change management experience
3-5 years of experience in payments, fintech, or financial services compliance (hungry, earlier-trajectory candidates welcome)

Compensation Transparency

The base salary range for this position is $100,000 to $175,000 annually. Final compensation will be determined within this range based on a number of factors, including but not limited to relevant experience, skills, role scope, and geographic location.

We are intentional about placing offers thoughtfully within the posted range to ensure internal equity, market alignment, and room for growth over time.

In addition to base pay, this role is eligible for:

Equity grants. You will be an owner of what you are building and share directly in the long-term success of Interchecks
Bonus Eligibility
401(k) with company match
Medical, dental, and vision insurance
Unlimited paid time off and paid holidays
Wellness, learning, and home office stipends
Other benefits designed to support you both inside and outside of work
