Credit Strategy Manager

Imprint is building a platform that helps the world’s best brands grow the lifetime value of their customers. We started with co-branded credit cards and rebuilt them to be smarter, more rewarding, and brand-first. We partner with companies like Crate & Barrel, Rakuten, Booking.com , H-E-B, Fetch, and Shell to launch modern credit programs that deepen loyalty, unlock savings, and drive growth. But the card is just the beginning. We combine advanced payments infrastructure, intelligent underwriting, and deep customer data to predict what each customer will do next and act on it, so brands can offer powerful financial products without becoming a bank. Co-branded cards alone account for over $300 billion in U.S. annual spend, and most still run on legacy bank rails. Imprint is the modern alternative: flexible, embeddable, and built for how people actually pay today. Backed by Kleiner Perkins, Thrive Capital, Ribbit, and Khosla Ventures, we’re building a world-class team to redefine how people pay and how brands grow. If you want to move fast, solve hard problems, and own real outcomes, we want to meet you.

As Credit Strategy Manager , you will own the strategy and execution of new acquisition channels at Imprint, operating at the intersection of credit risk and marketing. This is a high-impact individual contributor role where you will define how Imprint acquires cardholders profitably across new and emerging channels, balancing growth targets with credit performance and risk appetite.

You will partner directly with credit policy, data science, finance, and marketing to set targeting criteria, evaluate channel economics, and ensure every acquisition path aligns with Imprint's credit strategy and operating plan. You will work closely with GMs, marketing and brand partners to tailor channel strategies to partner economics while maintaining portfolio quality.

This role requires equal fluency in credit fundamentals and acquisition mechanics. You should be as comfortable analyzing approval rates and vintage loss forecasts as you are standing up the risk framework for a new affiliate program or building an invitation-to-apply strategy.
