About Us
Instalogic Technologies Private Limited is the India subsidiary of Nova Credit, Inc., a US-headquartered financial technology (fintech) company. We’re working to power a fair and inclusive financial system for the world. Our products use reliable data and technology to help represent people fairly to financial institutions, going beyond traditional credit scores to see the full financial picture.

- Set priorities, allocate resources, and provide guidance on complex matters
- Build a high-performing compliance culture aligned with company values
- Conduct performance reviews and support professional development of team members
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Act as the compliance bridge between US headquarters and India operations at a strategic level
- Collaborate with senior leaders across finance, compliance, legal, information security, and partnerships
- Provide compliance input on business strategy, new products, and partnership decisions
- Translate regulatory requirements into business-friendly guidance for operational teams
India Entity Management
- Oversee the operations of the India office
- Ensure appropriate governance structures and documentation are maintained
- Review and approve compliance policies, procedures, and frameworks for India operations
- Oversee regulatory filings, licenses, and reporting obligations

- Strategic thinking with ability to translate regulatory requirements into business opportunities
- Demonstrated ability to learn and accurately articulate the technical architecture of a data or fintech product, including how it moves, stores, and shares data
- Comfort engaging directly with technical/InfoSec stakeholders to understand a product well enough to defend it in high-stakes external conversations
