About the Role
Engine X is a corporate card and spend management product with a growing application volume that requires rigorous, fast credit decisioning. The Sr. Credit Analyst owns the full underwriting cycle — application review, KYB, limit-setting, documentation, and escalation — with the analytical judgment to execute independently and the instinct to flag what the team needs to know.
What You'll Do
- Work the Engine X credit underwriting queue from receipt to decision — applying the credit decision framework with speed and documented rationale.
- Run KYB verification — validate business identity, interpret D&B and equivalent bureau data, and assess creditworthiness for each application.
- Actively flag steps in the underwriting workflow that can be systematized or removed — we're building toward a decision engine, and your observations from the queue feed that build.
- Document every decision to the standard required for exception review and regulatory defensibility — notes that stand on their own without verbal explanation.
- Identify patterns across applications — shared signals, exception trends, emerging risk indicators — and surface them proactively rather than treating each application in isolation.
- Support backtest analysis for proposed rule changes — help assess the impact of policy shifts on historical application data.
- Contribute to SOP development and documentation as the credit framework matures.
- Coordinate with the Fraud team on application-stage signals that overlap between fraud and credit risk.
What We're Looking For
- 3+ years of commercial or business credit analysis or underwriting experience — comfortable owning the full decision lifecycle independently.
- D&B or equivalent commercial credit bureau experience.
- KYB process execution.
- Automation mindset — you're uncomfortable with manual processes that could be systematized and you say so. You see the queue as a source of signal for what to automate next, not just work to be done.
- Strong documentation — underwriting rationale that stands on its own for exception review or regulatory defensibility.
- Ability to identify patterns across applications and flag policy gaps proactively.
- Fintech, corporate card, or SMB credit environment strongly preferred.
- SQL or Google Sheets / Excel for data analysis a plus.
- Experience contributing to SOP or credit policy documentation a plus.
