CashAI, Dave’s proprietary underwriting engine, powers every credit decision we make and is the biggest reason we can say yes to millions of members that competitors and incumbent lenders can’t. As our Staff Product Manager, Credit Underwriting, you’ll own the strategy, roadmap, and models that deepen that advantage and extend it across ExtraCash, Flex card, and the credit products we launch next, directly driving member growth and revenue. You’ll report to our Director of Product Management and set the underwriting direction that other product managers, Data Science, Risk, and Engineering build against.

What you’ll build and own:

• Own the roadmap: Continually drive an ambitious underwriting strategy and multi-quarter roadmap across Dave’s portfolio of credit products to expand credit access to more members.
• Build credit solutions that scale: Partner with Data Science, Engineering, and Product vertical owners to design, test, and scale a new multi-product underwriting platform.
• Expand data advantage: Champion the expansion of new, differentiated credit signals beyond core bank data to continually strengthen CashAI performance.
• Own the numbers: Own the KPIs that matter most to the underwriting function - take rate, loss rate, disbursement volume, and retention - and manage trade-offs to the business.
• Drive speed to learning: Lead experimentation on underwriting and model changes, from hypothesis through rollout, with rigor before scaling company-wide.
• Be a force multiplier: Mentor others on credit domain expertise and help raise the bar for how Dave evaluates and scales new underwriting approaches.
• Shape what’s next: Partner with senior leadership to identify new underwriting-driven business opportunities - new products, partnerships, or data sources - that unlock growth.

The impact:

Your decisions determine whether a member gets access to money they need and whether Dave gets that decision right. You’ll shape how Dave scales credit access to millions of members while managing business risk - work that sits at the center of both our mission and our bottom line.
