What are the responsibilities and job description for the Credit Reporting Manager position at Imprint?
Who We Are
Imprint is reimagining co-branded credit cards & financial products to be smarter, more rewarding, and truly brand-first. We partner with companies like Crate & Barrel, Rakuten, Booking.com, H-E-B, Fetch, and Brooks Brothers to launch modern credit programs that deepen loyalty, unlock savings, and drive growth. Our platform combines advanced payments infrastructure, intelligent underwriting, and seamless UX to help brands offer powerful financial products—without becoming a bank.
Co-branded cards account for over $300 billion in U.S. annual spend—but most are still powered by legacy banks. Imprint is the modern alternative: flexible, tech-forward, and built for today’s consumer. Backed by Kleiner Perkins, Thrive Capital, and Khosla Ventures, we’re building a world-class team to redefine how people pay—and how brands grow. If you want to work fast, solve hard problems, and make a real impact, we’d love to meet you.
Role Overview
We’re seeking a Credit Reporting Manager who will serve as the central operational lead for all things credit reporting. You will be the chief liaison between our risk team, our third-party reporting partners, and our internal engineering, operations and compliance partners. You’ll be instrumental in strengthening our credit reporting processes, and helping to steward system improvements that make our reporting processes as accurate and scalable as possible.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys cross-functional collaboration, thrives in dynamic environments, and is comfortable with both high-level relationship management and hands-on data validation work.
