At Slope, we empower growing businesses by providing seamless access to capital. We are building a unified platform that serves two main purposes:
Direct Business Financing ("Financing by Slope") : We offer businesses the capital they need with instant underwriting and a consumer-grade user experience, making it easier and faster for them to manage their financing needs and focus on growth.
Technology Platform for Credit Teams ("Powered by Slope") : Our cutting-edge technology supports credit teams at enterprises and financial institutions, enhancing their ability to manage and extend credit efficiently.
You will play a foundational role in building the models and infrastructure powering Slope’s underwriting stack. If the thought of building things from scratch and owning features end-to-end excites you, you’d be a perfect fit!
Building the core risk models powering underwriting. The outputs of these models will determine who we lend to, how much we lend, and what terms we offer – our core business activity.
You will own everything from building pipelines & writing training loops to deploying the model to real-time production code.
Scale and optimize our underwriting service while keeping it low latency
