QUICK SUMMARY You’ll build the reports Kin sends regulators, hunt down data breaks, and keep compliance reporting reliable as we scale into new states. SQL required.

THE OPPORTUNITY We’re looking for a Compliance Reporting & Data Analyst to help us build the reporting muscle Kin needs as we scale. As we expand into new states and roll out new products, our regulatory, financial, and audit reporting obligations grow in both volume and complexity — and the stakes for getting them right grow with them. This is a newly created role, added as we expand our Compliance Reporting & Data function to keep pace with that growth. Reporting to the Compliance Reporting & Data Lead, you’ll partner across Compliance, Finance, Product, and Data Engineering to make sure the numbers we send to regulators, auditors, and finance leaders are accurate, complete, and defensible. Your work will directly protect Kin’s ability to operate in every state we serve today — and every state we’re preparing to enter next. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES - Translate regulatory and financial reporting requirements into report logic and data definitions, in partnership with the Compliance Reporting & Data Lead - Develop, maintain, and update regulatory and compliance reports for state filings, market conduct exams, audits, and other reporting obligations - Validate data used in compliance submissions against agreed checks, document the procedure and results, and escalate exceptions for resolution - Own reporting readiness for new products and state launches, including post-launch data validation - Investigate reporting discrepancies and data anomalies, isolate root causes, and drive remediation with Data Engineering, Finance, and Product - Write and execute validation tests that confirm data pipelines produce reporting-accurate output, and close gaps with Data Engineering before reporting depends on them - Build and maintain automated reporting processes, data-quality checks, reconciliations, and alerts, and propose additional checks where recurring exceptions surface - Create and maintain clear documentation of report logic, data definitions, controls, validation procedures, and reporting processes to keep Kin audit-ready - Produce and reconcile the data feeds Finance relies on for month-end close, and resolve variances identified during reconciliations - Research data and assemble supporting documentation for responses to regulators, auditors, and internal stakeholders, and recommend process, control, and automation improvements to the Compliance Reporting & Data Lead SUCCESS IN THIS ROLE In your first 6–12 months at Kin, success is less about checking boxes and more about the impact you create. You’ll use your skills and judgment to take ownership of meaningful work, improve how we operate, and help move Kin’s mission forward. Along the way, you’ll deliver outcomes that make a real difference for both Kinfolk and the homeowners we serve. By the end of your first year, you should feel confident in your role, trusted as an owner, and proud of the progress you’ve helped make. - Regulatory filings, market conduct exam responses, and audit requests go out on time, accurately, and backed by documentation an examiner can follow without a call. - New product launches and state expansions have clear compliance reporting requirements, with validated data feeds and documented controls. - Recurring reporting exceptions have dropped meaningfully as automated data-quality checks and alerts catch issues before they reach a filing - There is clear documentation in place for the reports you are responsible for, including step-by-step instructions. WHAT YOU’LL BRING - 2+ years of experience in data analysis, compliance reporting, insurance regulatory reporting, financial reporting, audit, or a similar analytical role - Working proficiency in SQL, including joins, aggregation, and queries that test for completeness, duplicates, and reconciliation breaks - Experience translating business and regulatory reporting requirements into structured data needs - A track record of investigating data discrepancies, isolating root causes, and driving remediation to completion - Precise, detail-oriented working style with well-organized documentation that a colleague can pick up and follow without a walkthrough - Ability to manage multiple recurring reporting deadlines without sacrificing accuracy - Clear written and verbal communication with both technical partners (Data Engineering) and non-technical partners (Compliance, Finance) Bonus if you have - Experience working in the P&C insurance industry - Familiarity with Looker or a comparable BI tool - Familiarity with data pipeline and data-platform tools such as Databricks, Airflow, or AWS tools - Experience with JIRA or similar work-management tools - Accounting, finance, or audit experience - Experience developing automated data-quality checks, reconciliations, or reporting processes HOW WE HIRE We believe a great hiring experience should be clear, respectful, and human.

Run through walls, together - Every one of us is responsible for creating the culture we want to work in. High performance. Low drama. Always respectful.

Each dollar we save gets reinvested to deliver more to our customers: better pricing, more products, and new innovations.

Lean isn't a limitation — it's our competitive advantage. Keep asking ‘What if?’ - We value curiosity. To make insurance better for our customers, we experiment. We embrace insights.
