• Ability to work 4 days a week from our San Francisco office (open to candidates willing to relocate)
  

Nice to Have

• Experience in highly regulated industry
• Combination of both big tech and start-up experience
• Knowledge of auto loan servicing
  

As an early-stage company building at the frontier of AI, we work with high intensity and commitment. While schedules can vary by role/team, many weeks will demand extra focus, flexibility and time particularly during major launches and high impact sprints.
