At Sunbit, we're building financial technology that puts people first. By combining intelligent decisioning with a personalized, transparent approach, we help consumers access the payment options that are right for them while empowering merchants to build stronger customer relationships.
Engineering is at the heart of how we make that happen. We build scalable distributed systems, cloud-native services, intelligent data platforms, and AI-powered solutions that enable real-time financial decisions at scale. By leveraging modern engineering practices and integrating AI into both our products and development workflows, we solve complex technical challenges, accelerate innovation, and continuously improve the way we build software. Every service, model, and architectural decision we make directly impacts our products, our customers, and the future of financial technology.
The Opportunity
We are seeking an experienced Program Manager – Decisioning (Credit Risk) to own, evolve, and execute Sunbit’s risk decisioning products. This role partners closely with ML Engineers , Engineering Leads and Business Stakeholders to transition Sunbit from product-specific silos into a generic, high-velocity engine powering Card, BNPL, and emerging products.
Blending strategic oversight with hands-on, rigorous program execution, you will turn complex risk logic into scalable, explainable platforms. You’ll own both long-range quarterly planning and sprint execution- defining who we approve, on what terms, and at what expected loss- while ensuring strict alignment with Sunbit’s risk portfolios, regulatory requirements, and long term unit economics. This role requires strong judgment, deep analytical thinking and meticulous detail standards.
Our Vision
We believe in a "win-win" future where personalized decisioning empowers real people in the real world to get the most for their hard-earned money. By moving away from "one-size-fits-all" credit and toward precision-driven finance, we ensure that a car repair, a dental visit, or an everyday purchase never becomes a financial burden.
Your Mission
As the Program Manager, your mission is to drive an advanced, adaptable decisioning platform that eliminates financial waste and prepares Sunbit for its next stage of hyper-growth. You will drive the delivery of core systems that determine how we approve, price, and manage risk—turning complex data into fair, instant, and transparent outcomes for millions of customers.
Act as the glue in the "Decisioning Triangle," partnering with Business owners, ML Leads and Engineer Leads to operationalize underwriting policies, while taking into account the trade-offs between approval rates, loss, revenue, and customer experience. Partner and balance competing requirements from various business owners (Heads of Card, BNPL, etc.) as well as Compliance, Legal, and Operations to ensure high-quality execution and regulatory integrity.
Hands-On Program Management
Act as an owner for key initiatives, driving the full product lifecycle from discovery and definition through launch, iteration, and performance monitoring. Use data and experimentation to inform decisions and continuously improve outcomes. Identify and remove bottlenecks in the underwriting flow to drive toward high-automation and speed-to-market.
