Join the Tilt team

At Tilt, we see a side of people that traditional lenders miss. Our mobile-first products and machine learning-powered credit models look beyond credit scores, using over 250 real-time financial signals to recognize real potential. With millions of customers worldwide, we're not just changing how people access financial products — we're creating a new credit system that backs the working, whatever they're working toward.

The Role

Tilt is hiring a Licensing Specialist to support our state licensing operations. You’ll play an essential role in ensuring Tilt’s operations meet regulatory expectations and internal standards - by coordinating, preparing, tracking, and maintaining licensing activities.

This role is ideal for someone who is detail-oriented, highly organized, and comfortable managing multiple workstreams. You’ll help drive licensing operations forward by maintaining filing calendars, coordinating application requirements, and supporting ongoing obligations throughout the license lifecycle. Working closely with both internal and external stakeholders, you’ll help ensure that licensing operations remain organized and timely.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy bringing structure and operational rigor to regulatory processes, this is the role for you.

What You'll Do

• Own the license application sprint. Manage end-to-end submission of 35 new state license applications — tracking deadlines, coordinating data requests, and ensuring every filing is complete and accurate across jurisdictions.

• Support control person onboarding. Coordinate the addition of two new control people to existing licenses, navigating each state's specific requirements with care and precision.

• Drive the in-house transition. Help move license management off the external platform and into our internal system — documenting processes as you go so the function is self-sustaining when you're done.

• Manage ongoing renewals. After the initial sprint wraps, provide steady part-time support for annual license renewals and regulatory reporting obligations.

• Write clear process documentation. Create step-by-step instructions for board members on their licensing obligations — written for non-specialists, not lawyers.

What We're Looking For

• Exceptional project coordination: able to manage 35+ concurrent workstreams, track deadlines across jurisdictions, and close information gaps without being chased.

• Strong written communication — specifically the ability to write instructions a non-specialist can follow without hand-holding.

• Comfort with a variable workload. Hours range from 4–20/week depending on filing cycles; you don't need constant volume to stay on top of things.

• Background in detail-heavy operational work — events coordination, government filings, permitting, legal ops, or similar environments translates directly.

• A self-starter who can operate independently, recognize when to escalate, and doesn't need a pre-built process to get started.

• No prior licensing or compliance experience required.

Contract Details

• Hours: ~30/week for the first ~8 weeks, then ~10–15/week ongoing (average ~10 hrs/week)

• Duration: Indefinite

• Location: Remote (US-based)

What you'll get at Tilt

• Virtual-first teamwork: The Tilt team is collaborating across 14 countries, 12 time zones, and counting. You’ll get started with a WFH office reimbursement.

• Competitive pay: We're big on potential, and it's reflected in our competitive compensation packages and generous equity.

• Complete support: Find flexible health plans at every premium level, and substantial subsidies that stand up to global standards.

• Visibility is yours: You can count on direct exposure to our leadership team — we’re a team where good ideas travel quickly.

• Paid global onsites: Magic happens IRL: we gather twice yearly to reconnect over shared meals or kayaking adventures. (We’ve visited Vail, San Diego, and Mexico City, to name a few.)

• Impact is recognized: Growth opportunities follow your contributions, not rigid promotion timelines.
