Your role

As a Credit Underwriter in Germany, you will play a key role in assessing credit applications and supporting responsible lending decisions for German SMEs. Instead of relying on traditional financial statements, we work with bank transaction data, automated models and modern digital tools to assess risk quickly and accurately. This way, we can make faster lending decisions for SMEs. Our underwriting process is designed to be highly efficient and data-driven, allowing you to review multiple cases fast throughout the day in a dynamic environment.

What you’ll do

• Assess SME credit applications up to €2.5 million

• Analyse bank transactions, risk model output, cashflow data and financial statements

• Identify potential credit and fraud risks

• Work towards full automation of our credit decision process, while deciding on credit applications that are not eligible for an automated journey

• Collaborate closely with the commercial team on client cases

• Contribute to improving underwriting processes and risk models

• Share insights and experience from the German market with our product and data teams

Location & travel

This is a remote-first role, and you can be based anywhere in Germany. Approximately twice a month, you’ll join colleagues at our headquarters in Den Bosch (Netherlands) for team days or collaboration sessions.

We organise everything to make your trips to Den Bosch comfortable:

• Travel costs fully reimbursed

• High-quality hotel next to our office

• Dinner and breakfast included

This way you can stay connected to the team while enjoying the flexibility of remote work.

Requirements

You are analytical, curious and comfortable working with financial data. You enjoy making well-founded decisions and balancing risk with business opportunity. You thrive in a fast-moving environment where technology and data help improve traditional financial processes. Working with international colleagues comes naturally to you, and you communicate clearly with both commercial and risk teams.

Furthermore, you have:

• A bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Economics, Business or related field

• 3–5 years of experience in credit analysis, underwriting or risk

• Experience analysing SME financial data

• Affinity with data-driven decision making and digital tools

• Experience in fintech or SME lending is a plus

• Native-level German and good command of English (B1 or higher)

What we offer

• Salary of €65,000 – €85,000 gross per year

• 30 vacation days

• Remote-first work environment

• Personal development budget + wellness allowance

• MacBook Pro, iPhone and high-quality equipment

• International scale-up culture with ambitious colleagues

• Company events, offsites and team gatherings in the Netherlands

• The opportunity to help build our German lending operations from an early stage

• A well-established, fast-paced fintech organization ready to scale to 3-5 European economies over the next 3 years
