WORKING AT OPORTUN
Working at Oportun means enjoying a differentiated experience of being part of a team that fosters a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture where we all feel a sense of belonging and are encouraged to share our perspectives. This inclusive culture is directly connected to our organization's performance and ability to fulfill our mission of delivering affordable credit to those left out of the financial mainstream. We celebrate and nurture our inclusive culture through our employee resource groups. # POSITION SUMMARY
The Senior Manager, Model Risk Management will play a key role within Oportun’s Model Risk Management (MRM) function, with primary responsibility for fair lending analytics, testing, and oversight, while also supporting broader model validation activities as needed. This role requires a strong quantitative and technical background, with hands-on experience in statistical analysis, machine learning models, and working with large datasets using tools such as Python and SQL. The Senior Manager will work closely with the Head of Model Risk Management and partner with the Director of Independent Model Validation, as well as stakeholders across Data Science, Strategy, and Technology. In addition to fair lending responsibilities, this role will contribute to the validation of high-risk and complex models, including those leveraging AI/ML techniques, supporting Oportun’s overall model risk management framework and regulatory expectations (e.g., SR 11-7). # RESPONSIBILITIES
