  • You're a self-motivated and dependable team player who is able to efficiently work independently and as part of a collaborative team.
  • You have strong interpersonal skills and interact well with other Laners, team members, and external parties.

You'll get bonus points for:

  • Certificate in paralegal studies or JD
  • Conversant in federal and state consumer finance laws and regulations, including TILA, ECOA, FCRA, TCPA, FDCPA, GLBA, and SCRA
  • Familiar with trademark and patent searches and filings

About Mission Lane:

Founded in December 2018, Mission Lane is a purpose-driven fintech company based in the U.S., with headquarters in Richmond, Virginia.

It all started with a realization: nearly fifty percent of the adult population in the U.S. doesn't have access to a clear line of credit. Most traditional credit card companies either overlook or overcharge this group because they have less-than-perfect credit scores or no scores at all. We decided this just wouldn't do.

In partnership with our sponsor banks, we offer credit cards under the Mission Lane brand name, with better, clearer terms, and a more refined customer experience than the alternatives available to people working hard to improve their credit.

To date, over three million consumers have chosen Mission Lane, earning high customer ratings on Credit Karma for its market segment and industry leading Net Promoter scores.

Mission Lane has cumulatively raised over $600 million of equity from leading investors, including Invus Opportunities, QED Investors, LL Funds, funds affiliated with Oaktree Capital Management, and other leading investors.
