  • Build analytics that track progress towards company KPIs and drivers of performance that are critical to achieving originations and credit goals.
  • Partner with Product, Operations, and Data teams to validate releases, streamline underwriting processes, and ensure credit policies align with business objectives.
  • Collaborate with model development teams to support deployment, monitoring, and backtesting of credit and underwriting models.
  • Monitor dashboards and performance tracking tools to guide strategic decisions and support cross-functional partners.
  • Identify and investigate early warning signs of credit deterioration or operational inefficiencies.
  • Present findings and recommendations to non-technical stakeholders, including Senior Leadership, to influence decision-making.
What You'll Bring
  • Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Data Science, Finance, Economics, Statistics, Business, Engineering, or a related analytical field.
  • 3–7 years of experience in credit risk, or strategy; preferably within consumer lending, fintech, or startup environments.
  • Strong SQL skills required; proficiency in Excel, and experience with data visualization tools (Tableau) preferred.
  • Working knowledge of Python or R is a plus.
  • Familiarity with credit reports, credit scoring models, and consumer loan performance metrics. Ability to interpret complex data and communicate insights clearly to cross-functional partners.
  • Detail-oriented with excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment.
  • A proactive mindset and desire to dig into both strategic and tactical challenges to drive measurable impact.
What We Offer
  • Considerable employer contributions for health, dental and vision programs
  • Flexible time-off policy
  • 401(K) match with immediate 100% vesting
  • Merit advancement opportunities
  • Monthly Work From Home Stipend
