What You’ll Do

Underwrite new credit requests: assess borrower profiles, evaluate financial statements, and prepare clear, concise credit memos for review and committee approval.
Own portfolio monitoring: track performance, identify early warning signals, and recommend proactive measures to manage exposure.
Contribute to credit policy development: help refine our underwriting standards, credit limits, and risk appetite as we scale.
Collaborate cross-functionally: partner with Finance, Product, and Operations to improve credit decisioning, automate workflows, and streamline processes.
Communicate insights clearly: distill complex credit narratives into executive-ready materials that inform leadership and investors.
Act as a trusted credit voice: provide thoughtful, independent perspectives on borrower risk and portfolio quality.
Bonus points if you’ve helped implement new underwriting workflows, tools, or policies at a startup or early-stage lending platform.
