• Proven experience in fintech and payments, with exposure to credit products and lending.
• Demonstrated P&L ownership and strong commercial acumen.
• Customer-obsessed and insight-driven — you build products that solve real problems and deliver measurable value.
• Balance between strategic thinking and hands-on execution; moving seamlessly between long-term direction and near-term delivery.
• Strong communicator and influencer with the ability to align cross-functional teams and executive stakeholders.
• Data-driven mindset — confident in using analytics, experimentation, and market insight to inform decisions.
• Bring a builder mentality — comfortable in fast-paced, ambiguous environments, with a focus on delivering value early and often.
