Deliver Technical Demonstrations & Proofs of Concept (PoCs): Build custom demos, sample payloads, and technical documentation that showcase how our APIs handle complex loan servicing, ledgering, statements, and compliance scenarios.

Provide Deep Post-Launch Technical Judgment: Serve as a senior escalation point after go-live when client challenges require architectural insight, root-cause troubleshooting, or custom configuration, following up through full resolution.

Communication & Stakeholder Alignment: Exceptional ability to distill complex technical architectures clearly for both executive business stakeholders and hands-on client developers, facilitating consensus across diverse teams.

Nice to have:

Direct experience in lending, credit cards, loan servicing, core banking, or payment processing.
