Most job descriptions start with a problem and look for someone to solve it. This one starts with you. If you’re someone with an exceptional capacity to solve complex problems and call your own shots, we want to hear from you.

If you’re excited to shape the financial futures of millions and transform the future of consumer finance, show us how. You’ll tell us your strengths and what you do better than almost anyone you’ve worked with. We’ll find where you can make the largest impact at January and shape your role around it.

You’ve done something exceptional. A function you built, a product people use, a craft you mastered, work people read, with proof of why it’s remarkable.

You treat prescription before diagnosis as a sin.

You ask the fewest, most important diagnostic questions nobody else in the room thought to ask, then act on the answer the same week.

You own outcomes end to end without waiting for direction. You fix what blocks progress, even outside your scope, and leave behind systems others can run.

You actively experiment with AI to multiply what one person can do.

No minimum years of experience. We care what you've done, not how long it took. Founding or early-team experience is a plus.

Decentralization beats control. The best calls get made by the people closest to them, not routed up a chain. You'll set the standards that let the team decide without you in the room.

Speed beats perfection. You run tight loops, act at 70% on reversible calls and adjust as you learn. Fast loops beat slow ones.

Candor beats comfort. You'd rather hear a hard truth early than a polite sidestep that wastes everyone's time.

Writing beats the average meeting. Clarity scales.
