• Collaborate with product, operations, finance, and data teams to integrate risk considerations into customer experiences and product launches
• Design and implement effective collections, repayment, and fraud mitigation strategies to reduce losses
• Communicate risk insights and recommendations to senior leaders and external stakeholders, influencing decision-making at the highest level
  
  
  

Experience (What we look for):

• 5+ years of experience in credit risk, preferably within fintech, lending, or mobile payments
• Strong skills in SQL, Python, and Excel, with a track record of building and maintaining credit models and dashboards
• Demonstrated ability to lead both strategic planning and hands-on execution in a dynamic, fast-paced environment
• Deep understanding of the lending lifecycle, credit policy development, and regulatory compliance
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with experience presenting to executives and influencing cross-functional team
