Peaks is a 34-person fintech startup building a mobile-first investing platform with a compliance-first architecture. The hiring mix—split across support, finance, legal, and product with a dedicated Head of Risk & Compliance—reflects a regulatory-heavy business model where compliance is embedded in product development, not bolted on after. Current projects span German market expansion, risk management framework evolution, and ad performance optimization, signaling simultaneous focus on geographic scaling and unit economics.
