Why this is a fit
Your ERISA/HIPAA/healthcare compliance background aligns with the legal function and fintech industry target, but this role requires 6+ years with substantial focus on privacy, data protection, and AI governance—not employee benefits or ERISA—and the on-site NYC/NJ/GA requirement conflicts with your DC Metro/remote preference.
