  • Build and maintain data pipelines for both third-party and internal data sources to support ongoing modeling and analytics workflows.
  • Develop and enhance financial models to forecast cash flows and economic returns; execute bulk scenario runs to stress test portfolio performance under a range of economic conditions.
  • Monitor portfolio performance against expectations, incorporating macroeconomic research and third-party data to holistically assess financial risk and inform mitigation decisions.
  • Lead and develop a Senior Analyst, providing day-to-day guidance, mentorship, and oversight of work product.

What We're Looking For

Required:
  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Engineering, Mathematics/Statistics, or another quantitative field.
  • 4+ years of experience in financial analytics, credit risk, or a related quantitative discipline.
  • Advanced proficiency in Python (pandas, numpy, and related libraries) - Python is the primary tool in this role.
  • Experience with SQL and cloud data platforms (Snowflake preferred).
  • Strong understanding of cashflow modeling, financial risk concepts, and economic return analysis.
  • Demonstrated experience building and maintaining data pipelines.
  • Prior experience leading or mentoring junior analysts.
  • Highly curious and self-motivated, with a strong sense of priority and commitment to deadlines.

Preferred:
  • Knowledge of Expected Credit Loss (ECL) frameworks such as CECL or IFRS 9.
  • Familiarity with applying machine learning models in a credit or financial context.
  • Experience with Tableau or Python-based visualization frameworks (e.g., Streamlit, Plotly Dash).
  • Exposure to consumer finance or consumer debt portfolios.
  • Comfort using AI tools - including large language models - to accelerate analytical workflows such as code generation, data exploration, and documentation.

The Credigy Experience

Credigy offers a comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage through Cigna - with Credigy covering a significant portion of premiums - plus STD, LTD, and basic life insurance at no cost to you.

A Note to Applicants

If this role excites you but you don't check every box, we encourage you to apply. We value curiosity, a willingness to learn, and a collaborative spirit just as much as direct experience.
