Software Engineer, Credit Risk Platform

<h2><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><strong>About the role</strong></span></h2> <p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Chime Engineering is growing rapidly as we scale to support the financial needs of our members. We are looking for driven engineers to join our Credit Risk Platform team, where you’ll build backend services and internal tools that help Chime manage credit risk and losses across all of our credit products, including Loans, MyPay, SpotMe, and a growing pipeline of new credit products in development.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">This team is building a shared risk platform that expands with every new product we launch. A key part of the mission is being able to onboard new credit products as a platform capability, not a reinvention of decisioning, controls, and monitoring each time. You’ll partner closely with Credit Risk, Product, Analytics, and Data Science to help risk experts iterate safely using better tooling, richer data, and clear guardrails. That includes integrating third-party data sources and building systems that are reliable, observable, and auditable, because they sit on the critical path of member experiences and credit outcomes.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">The base salary offered for this role and level of experience will begin at $133,000 and up to $184,000.

The actual base salary offered may be higher, depending on your location, skills, qualifications, and experience.&nbsp;</span></p> <h2><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><strong>In this role, you can expect to</strong></span></h2> <ul> <li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Design, develop, test, and maintain backend services and internal tools that support risk strategy across multiple products (e.g., eligibility, limits, exposure tracking, policy enforcement)</span></li> <li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Contribute to reusable platform primitives that make it faster and safer to launch new credit products without duplicating risk decisioning and controls</span></li> <li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Build and improve workflows that enable Credit Risk teams to adjust strategies (rules, thresholds, segmentation) with appropriate guardrails and review processes</span></
