• Liaise with Risk stakeholders to maintain strong controls and ensure sound, explainable decisions.
• Drive innovation in automation, monitoring, and performance tuning of our decisioning systems.
• Balance flexibility and scalability while maintaining high data quality across multiple sources.
  
  

You’ll Succeed With

• 3–5+ years of experience in strategy, analytics, or product/data roles within high-growth, data-driven environments.
• Professional experience with SQL is essential; Python experience is a strong plus.
• Strong track record of using data to solve complex problems and drive commercial outcomes.
• Background in industries with large data throughput (e.g. fintech, consumer tech, lending, e-commerce).
• Experience with modern analytics stacks (data warehouses, dashboards, monitoring systems).
