Through our CreditNinja and NinjaCard brands, we offer digital banking and lending products designed for consumers often overlooked, paired with incentives that support long-term financial improvement. Our Edge brand extends this expertise to other companies, providing underwriting, fraud detection, and analytics services. Headquartered in Chicago with a distributed global workforce, we are a lean, growing organization committed to advancing consumer finance in the US.

Platform Engineers in this role are part of the Operations department and will be primarily focused on the design, development and automation of our cloud infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines. This person will work closely with the Software and Risk Engineering teams across our brands to streamline our environments and deployment processes.
