DAT is seeking an entrepreneurial risk leader to build and scale the credit risk program at the center of our evolving payments ecosystem. This role sits at the intersection of risk management, systems development, and portfolio management — requiring someone who can design programs from the ground up and drive execution across a fast‑moving organization. You’ll own credit risk modeling, underwriting processes, and decisions for marketplace customers while building the infrastructure, analytics, and processes needed to scale those capabilities over time.

Following DAT’s acquisition of Convoy in 2025, this role will also take on direct responsibility for integrating Convoy’s credit product into DAT’s broader risk framework — a meaningful near‑term priority that will shape how the combined program operates going forward.

• Design and implement a scalable credit risk framework from the ground up, including policies, risk thresholds, escalation frameworks, and enforcement workflows.

• Develop underwriting criteria and credit policies for marketplace customers, incorporating financial analysis alongside industry‑specific data sources. Own credit limit decisions, ongoing monitoring, and escalation for complex or high‑exposure accounts. Build early warning systems that identify deteriorating credit quality before losses occur, leveraging payment trend analysis, balance growth patterns, and default probability indicators.

• Lead the design of KPIs, reporting frameworks, and dashboards that give leadership real‑time visibility into portfolio health and emerging…
