About the role:

We are seeking an experienced and self-sufficient Sr. Credit Analyst to join our Deal Desk organization.

This role is for a proven senior contributor who is passionate about driving process improvements and is eager to influence strategy from the ground up.

This is a remote position open to candidates residing in Mexico.

• You want to impact the industries that run our world: Your efforts will result in real-world impact—helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, reduce emissions, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.

We set up our employees for success and have built a culture that encourages rapid career development, countless opportunities to experiment and master your craft in a hyper growth environment.

In this role, you will: 

• Own the end-to-end credit review process for the most strategic and high-value accounts, ensuring alignment with company policies and risk tolerance.
• Serve as the internal subject matter expert on credit risk, providing advanced analysis and insights to Deal Desk and Sales leadership to support complex deal structures.
• Proactively identify and manage high-risk scenarios, providing clear recommendations and managing up to leaders on potential issues before they escalate.
• Mentor and provide guidance to junior team members, sharing best practices and elevating the quality of credit analysis across the organization.
• Lead initiatives to improve the credit management process, championing and implementing solutions for automation, workflow optimization, and policy enhancements.
• Collaborate with cross-functional leadership to develop and refine credit policies and programs that balance business growth with financial health.
• Maintain the accuracy and integrity of all credit data by actively monitoring and managing credit tools and databases.
• Champion, role model, and embed Samsara’s cultural principles (Focus on Customer Success, Build for the Long Term, Adopt a Growth Mindset, Be Inclusive, Win as a Team) as we scale globally and across new offices.

Minimum requirements for the role:

• 4+ years of professional experience in credit analysis, finance, or a related role, with a proven track record of handling complex cases.
• Demonstrated experience in independently managing processes and influencing stakeholders with data-driven insights.
• Strong analytical skills with a proven ability to interpret financial data and credit reports.

• Excellent attention to detail and a high degree of accuracy.
• Ability to work autonomously and collaboratively in a fast-paced, dynamic environment with minimal day-to-day direction.

An ideal candidate also has:

• Previous experience in the banking, lending, or financial services industries.
• Experience in a SaaS or technology company.
• Experience with global credit management and international financial regulations.
• Proven ability to influence and align cross-functional leaders to achieve strategic objectives.
