Job Description

About us

At Slope, we empower growing businesses by providing seamless access to capital. We are building a unified platform that serves two main purposes:

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

🦾 The Role

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

  • Seeking out new data sources, such as credit bureaus, fraud-detection services, and alternative sources (social media, satellite & street views). Integrating promising APIs into our production & training pipelines.

  • Building the infrastructure that powers data ingestion, model training, and deployment.

  • Support the improvement of internal tooling used in financial-based and manual underwriting

  • You’ll get the chance to be an early team member at a fast-growth YC startup. We truly believe it’s all about slope — not where you start but how fast we are growing and iterating

  • We are growing insanely fast and are well-funded. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join our rocketship at an inflection point!

  • We’re a tight-knit, intense team, where you'll learn a ton and have ownership

  • We have raised capital from the some of the best VCs (Y Combinator, Union Square Ventures) and angels (Sam Altman and founders of Doordash, Dropbox, Plaid, Opendoor, Unity) in the world

  • Work with seasoned second-time founders

  • Once in a life-time opportunities to scale innovations such as Slope Transformer

  • Help transition the massive B2B economy online and help small business owners thrive

📈 Requirements

  • 3+ years in Data Engineering, or ML Engineering in a production setting

  • Worked closely with data scientists to ship features and models into production

  • Experience building, maintaining, and debugging distributed ML infrastructure

  • Fluency in Python and Javascript

  • Experience with the DS stack (Pandas, Scikit, Numpy)

  • Experience with SQL, data warehousing and ETL

  • Experience with building internal tooling to empower coworkers and improve operational efficiency

  • Willing to work in person at SF office

  • Being proactive and a fast-learner (Slope! ⚡)

🚀 Bonus points

  • Customer-centric and passionate about helping small businesses grow

  • Experience with a web frameworks (i.e. Django, Nextjs)

  • Experience at a high-growth, fast-paced startup
