About Upstart
Upstart is a leading AI lending marketplace partnering with banks and credit unions to expand access to affordable credit. By leveraging Upstart's AI marketplace, Upstart-powered banks and credit unions can have higher approval rates and lower loss rates across races, ages, and genders, while simultaneously delivering the exceptional digital-first lending experience their customers demand. More than two-thirds of Upstart loans are approved instantly and are fully automated.
Upstart is a digital-first company, which means that most Upstarters live and work anywhere in the United States. However, we also have offices in San Mateo, California; Columbus, Ohio; and Austin, Texas.
Most Upstarters join us because they connect with our mission of enabling access to effortless credit based on true risk. If you are energized by the impact you can make at Upstart, we’d love to hear from you!
The Team:
Upstart’s Automotive Retail is reinventing the way customers buy and finance their cars. $780 billion of auto loans are originated in the U.S. annually yet it consistently ranks as one of the worst consumer experiences in America. We started from the ground up to build a truly end to end digital retailing platform for dealerships spanning online shopping to in-store digital experiences to financing and dealer management tools – all in service of building a modern car buying experience.
We currently work with hundreds of dealerships across the country and are partnered as an official digital retail provider for key OEM brands including Mercedes-Benz, Acura, Honda, Lexus, Toyota, Volkswagen, and others. Our growth is built on leveraging Upstart’s machine learning advantages in underwriting, fraud and dynamic workflows to deliver a product with higher approvals for consumers while boosting profitability at lower costs for dealerships. Our unique position of being a discrete business unit within Upstart affords us the growth and challenge of a fast growing startup but with the stability and foundation of a mature company.
Your Role:
The current landscape of automotive sales involves hundreds of potential integration vendors and data sources with the average sales person switching across 5 tools to complete a single vehicle purchase. As the Platform PM for Auto Retail, you will closely partner with both internal squads across the surface area of our product as well as external vendors and data sources to identify, evaluate, manage, implement and improve the core integrations within our platform. You will also be responsible for identifying and building out areas of unique differentiation for Upstart using our machine learning advantages to improve the core capabilities of our product.
Success in this role relies on working with a wide variety of internal stakeholders and external partners, developing a detailed understanding of the auto retail landscape and effectively balancing platform vs. team specific roadmaps.
