About PingLend:
PingLend is on a mission to radically change the way credit works for the underbanked, starting with credit. We just wrapped up a Series A less than one year after our seed round and are in ultra-growth mode. PingLend allows almost anyone to get a credit card regardless of their credit score by collateralizing assets such as gold, jewelry, watches, handbags, etc. This allows PingLend's users to build their credit and qualify for previously unobtainable financial products.

- Leverage data techniques to investigate our data and gain knowledge of our users/business, and educate the rest of the team.
- Design and execute acquisition, pricing, and credit line tests.
- Partner with engineers to validate & deploy solutions in an efficient, sustainable & usable manner.
Characteristics of a Successful Candidate:
- 1-3 years of experience in an analytical function (e.g., data science, risk management, or strategic finance) or equivalent master’s degree.
- Self-starter, capable of productive work both independently and as part of a team, with a desire to learn quickly and take ownership.
- Strong track record in working collaboratively.
- Ability to multi-task in a fast-paced environment is essential, with prior experience in consumer finance or fintech strongly preferred.
