The ideal candidate will not only have superb technical skills but also strong interpersonal skills and the ability to influence and present to all levels of the organization.

- Become expert on transactional unit economics and consumer LTV
- Design and deliver scalable automated user and financial dashboards and analytics for cross departmental and executive consumption
- Establish top-line performance metrics and targets, analyze and report realized financial performance to Executives and company leaders, and drive accountability for results
What We Look For
- Passion and drive to disrupt the lending and financial industry for the better
- Strong sense of ownership, intellectual curiosity and an ability to think creatively and critically and thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic, and often ambiguous work environment
- 6+ years experience in fast-paced analytical roles (strategic finance, investment banking, consulting, data science, analytics, etc.)
- High attention to detail but an equally important ability to see the big picture and evaluate analyses with strategic business context
- Familiarity with consumer finance and/or direct-to-consumer metrics strongly preferred
