You will be instrumental in building our credit underwriting infrastructure and developing comprehensive credit policies. Your expertise in underwriting fintech asset originators and your knowledge of securitization (DA, PTC, True Sell, etc.) and CLO / CDO will ensure that our underwriting network is robust and our credit decisions are data-driven. This is a role with significant global exposure, connecting various markets and financial institutions.

- Evaluate the creditworthiness and financial stability of global fintech asset originators.

- Assess risks in underwriting pools and make informed decisions.

- Use and enhance Qiro’s underwriting infrastructure, supporting the distributed underwriting network.

- Coordinate with different service providers such as auditors, custodians, rating agencies, etc., globally.


Requirements:

- Minimum 6 years of experience in the Banking/NBFC/Fintech space with at least 2-3 years of experience at the management level.

- Minimum Bachelor’s degree in finance, economics, or related field. 

-- Professional certifications such as CA, CFA, FRM, or similar credentials are a plus & will be preferable.

- Expertise in credit analysis or underwriting of NBFCs/fintech asset originators/financial institutions.

- Excellent communication and interpersonal abilities, especially to manage global financial institutions (NBFIs, NBFCs, fintech lenders, debt funds, etc).

- Must possess knowledge of securitization (DA, PTC, True Sell, etc.), CLO (Collateralized Loan Obligations), CDO (Collateralized Debt Obligations), and structured debt. Preference will be given to those who were involved in securitization and CLO / CDO transactions in the past.

- Exceptional skills in understanding data, trend analysis, scorecards, and behavior scores are a must.

- Ready to dive in and wear multiple hats at an early-stage DeFi startup? It’s an intrapreneur role with lots of room to grow and innovate.


What qualities are we looking for :

- Take full ownership of projects, leading them from concept to completion with a hands-on approach and a “get-it-done” attitude, even in a resource-constrained environment.

- Build processes and systems from scratch while bringing structure to an unstructured, fast-paced startup environment, ensuring scalability and efficiency.

- Lead by example, mentor and guide a junior resource in the credit team, and collaborate effectively across teams to achieve shared goals.

- Operate with high integrity, accountability, and a strong problem-solving mindset, thriving in ambiguity and finding resourceful solutions to challenges.

- Demonstrate a research-oriented attitude to uncover insights, stay curious, and adapt to a dynamic environment while continuously learning and improving.

- Excellent communication skills along with strong presentation and data analytics skills.


Benefits:

- Global exposure

- Introduction to DeFi (Decentralized Finance) world

- Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses

- Flexible working hours

- Opportunities for professional development and career growth within a dynamic global DeFi company
