    About the role

    At Tilt, our mobile-first products and machine learning-powered credit models look beyond credit scores, using over 250 real-time financial signals to recognize real potential. With millions of customers worldwide, we're creating a new credit system that backs the working, whatever they're working toward.

    Tilt is hiring a Risk Operations Transformation Lead to help Risk Operations scale through better processes, tooling, analytics, partner delivery and automation. This is a hands-on, execution-oriented role owning a portfolio of programs and accountable for measurable improvements, not a traditional project coordination or PMO role.

    Tilt is a remote-first company that fosters connectivity through regular offsites. Travel for company offsites is required at least twice per year.

    What you'll do

    • Serve as the Risk Operations business owner for AI Enabled Operations, prioritizing automation opportunities by volume, complexity, customer impact and operational risk.
    • Define the requirements, decision logic, controls and success measures for Risk automation, and partner with Product and Engineering through design, testing and launch.
    • Monitor automation after launch (adoption, accuracy, quality, risk outcomes and savings) and lead improvements when results fall short.
    • Lead transformation programs that simplify Risk Operations processes, workflows, roles and handoffs, from problem definition through adoption and measurement.
    • Identify work that can move to better tooling, self-service capabilities or BPO partners, and define tooling improvements with Product and Engineering.
    • Work with Shared Services and Vendor Management on operational readiness, including documentation, training, quality controls, escalation paths and post-launch monitoring.
    • Define the metrics that show performance, capacity, quality and risk trends, and use them to find root causes and prioritize improvements.
    • Keep new processes, tools and automation aligned with requirements set by Compliance, Fraud Strategy and other policy owners.
    • In your first 90 to 180 days: build a prioritized program portfolio, deliver initial improvements, and show measurable movement in an outcome such as SLA attainment, backlog age, quality, loss outcomes or cost per case.

    What they're looking for

    • 5+ years of experience in Risk Operations, Fraud Operations, Disputes, Credit Risk, Trust and Safety, Compliance Operations, operations strategy, program management or a related field.
    • Track record leading operational improvement or transformation programs, including redesigning processes, implementing tools or launching automation, from problem definition through measurement.
    • Strong understanding of how operational queues, investigations, reviews and escalations work in practice.
    • Strong analytical skills, with experience using operational data to identify trends, diagnose root causes and make recommendations.
    • Able to turn ambiguous problems into clear plans, requirements and measurable results while managing multiple complex initiatives.
    • Able to influence stakeholders and drive decisions without direct authority.
    • Clear written and verbal communication with frontline teams, technical partners and senior leadership.
    • Sound judgment on operational risk, controls, prioritization and escalation.
    • Experience in fintech, payments, banking or another highly regulated environment.

    Nice to have

    • BPO or distributed-team transitions.
    • Change-management experience.
    • Writing product or business requirements.
    • SQL and Looker, Tableau or Databricks.
    • Familiarity with capacity models, SLA and quality measures, and regulations such as Reg E, Reg Z and UDAAP.
