Business Operations Lead

About Rain

At Rain, we’re rebuilding the global financial pipes money flows through. Our infrastructure makes stablecoins usable in the real world by powering credit card transactions, cross-border payments, B2B purchases, remittances, and more. We partner with fintechs, neobanks, and institutions to help them launch solutions that are global, inclusive, and efficient. If you’re curious, bold, and excited to help shape a borderless financial system, we’d love to talk.

Our Ethos

Operating at the epicenter of stablecoin innovation means moving fast and thinking globally. Our team reflects the diverse, international audiences we serve. We hire people who stay agile as the tide ebbs and flows, fix what’s broken without waiting, chase trends before they peak, and remember to have fun through it all.

About the Role

Reporting to the Head of Business Operations, you’ll be a high-leverage operator helping Rain scale. Your job is to drive alignment + execution: building the operating system that keeps us pointed at the right problems, and jumping in to provide hands-on support for the most important company priorities.

You’ll alternate between strategy and operational work. One week designing our QBRs or company scorecard, the next week reviewing our GTM targeting criteria to improve conversion. If you like being the connective tissue of an organization, and you get energy from turning ambiguity into clear plans, metrics, and outcomes, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

• Improve Rain’s operating cadence - evolve our planning cycles, OKRs, and business reviews so teams are aligned on goals, tradeoffs, and progress.

• Drive high-impact, cross-functional initiatives - lead projects that span Product, Platform, Compliance, Risk, Finance, Ops, GTM, or M&A.

• Define and operationalize our metrics - partner with team leads to define Rain’s core KPIs, build a simple company scorecard, and stand up dashboards that give leaders a real-time view of how we’re doing.

• Bring structure to ambiguous problems - take fuzzy questions (“which market should we be prioritizing?”, “how can we get customers live faster?”) and turn them into clear hypotheses, analyses, and plans to execute.

• Help build BizOps as a function - shape how Business Operations works at Rain.
  

Who You Are

• A structured problem-solver who can break messy, cross-functional problems into clear components and a pragmatic plan.

• Able to operate at all altitudes—zooming out to debate strategy with leaders, then zooming in to fix a broken process or write the first draft of a doc.

• An excellent communicator and facilitator who can synthesize complexity into crisp narratives, drive productive meetings, and influence without formal authority.

• A strong bias-for-action operator who moves quickly, unblocks themselves, and cares about outcomes over polished docs or frameworks.

• Highly analytical and metrics-minded: comfortable in spreadsheets, dashboards, and basic SQL/BI, and more interested in the “so what” than just the numbers.

• Low-ego, collaborative, and energized by being the connective tissue of the organization..

• Excited about stablecoins, infrastructure, and building the next-generation financial rails.

• 7–10+ years of experience in Business Operations, Strategy, Consulting, Investment Banking, PE/VC, or similar high-analytical / high-ownership roles.

Nice to Have

• Experience in fintech, payments, card programs, or financial infrastructure.

• Direct experience setting up or running a company operating system (OKRs, QBRs, planning cycles, operating reviews).

• Comfort with SQL and modern analytics tools (dbt, Looker, Hex, or similar) and working closely with Data/Engineering.

• Prior experience as a Founder or Product Manager.

• Experience at a high-growth tech or fintech startup.
