JOB SUMMARY

Watercress Financial is as financial technology company headquartered in West Des Moines, looking to fill a consumer loan credit risk analysis position. This is a full-time position with 401k, PTO and health benefits. The salary and final title for this position can be adjusted for experienced and well qualified candidates. This position provides key analytics for consumer loan portfolio credit file analysis, rules engine and score models, lending data analysis, and loan portfolio performance analysis and strategy development. Experience with data analysis tools such as SQL is required.


The Watercress risk team is a small and experienced team with a wide range of technical skills in loan analytics, predictive modeling, system integration and automation. Candidates are not expected to hold all skills noted in this posting, as the existing team can train new hires in any gaps. Our goal is to bring on new team members looking to expand their knowledge and prove their skills. We often hire from larger firms, who frequently limit what any one individual can achieve by over-specializing work roles. People who are smart, curious, self-taught learners often prefer the more eclectic, ‘expert at many, master at none’ type of environment that nimble FinTech firms like Watercress can provide.
