About Upstart
At Upstart, we’re united by a mission that matters: to radically reduce the cost and complexity of borrowing for all Americans. Every day, we bring creativity, experimentation, and advanced AI to reshape access to credit, helping millions move forward financially with clarity and confidence.
As the leading AI lending marketplace, we partner with banks and credit unions to expand access to affordable credit through technology that’s both radically intelligent and deeply human. Our platform runs over one million predictions per borrower using more than 1,800 signals, powering smarter, fairer decisions for millions of customers. But the numbers only hint at the impact. Every idea, every voice, and every contribution moves us closer to a world where credit never stands between people and their financial progress.
We’re proudly digital-first, giving most Upstarters the flexibility to do their best work from wherever they thrive, alongside teammates across 80+ cities in the US and Canada. Digital-first doesn’t mean distant. We’re intentional about in-person connection through team onsites, planning sessions, and moments that spark creativity and trust. And whether you choose to work primarily from home or collaborate in-person from one of our offices in Columbus, Austin, the Bay Area, or New York City (opening Summer 2026), you’ll have the support to work in the way that works best for you.
If you’re energized by tackling meaningful problems, excited to innovate with purpose, and motivated by work that truly matters, we’d love to hear from you.
As Principal Product Manager, White Label at Upstart, you will lead the creation of a new white label business that we expect to be our primary growth engine into 2027 and beyond. This is a foundational role with outsized impact on Upstart’s long-term growth.
Upstart White Label enables some of the largest consumer banks in the U.S. to offer Upstart’s industry-leading borrower experience, automated decisioning, and capital markets partnerships under their own brand, while preserving the direct relationship between bank and borrower.
We will begin by white-labeling Upstart HELOC. Today, ~90% of HELOC borrowers originate through banks. A white-labeled HELOC allows us to meet borrowers where they already are, while delivering meaningful differentiation: closing in ~7 days (vs. a 30-day industry average) and offering fixed-rate HELOCs (vs. the industry standard of variable rates) and half the cost of origination. This initial product lays the groundwork for extending white label across additional Upstart products over time.
