[Hiring] FP&A Manager @Marqeta

Role Description

As Marqeta’s FP&A Manager, GTM Finance, you will focus on Marqeta's credit business by partnering with Sales, Legal, Product, Credit Risk, and Capital Markets to model pricing, evaluate profitability, and structure deals that win business while protecting unit economics. You'll flex in on debit and prepaid as needed, but credit is where you'll spend the majority of your time.

Credit deals are not debit deals. They come with different revenue mechanics, cost structures, and stakeholders — and modeling them well means understanding life-of-loan economics, vintage performance, capital efficiency, and revenue share splits across multiple parties. A meaningful part of this role is partnering with Marqeta's credit function to build financial models that help secure new bank partnerships and capital providers, crafting the projections, scenario analyses, and economic narratives that go in front of prospective partners.

You won't be on the sidelines forecasting — you'll be in the room helping Sales shape deals in real time, pressure-testing assumptions on interchange splits, loss curves, and program economics. You'll be joining a tight-knit deal desk team that shares context, shares wins, and shares the load. The work moves fast, and the team is how we keep up.

We work Flexible First. This role can be performed remotely anywhere within the U.S. or from our local Oakland office. We'd love for you to join us!

The Impact You'll Have

• Serve as the financial partner to Sales on live credit deals — modeling the full economic stack: interchange, finance charges, fees, rewards costs, cost of funds, expected losses, network fees, and sponsor bank revenue share.
• Build deal-level models that capture the full life-of-portfolio economics — not just first-year interchange, but how the deal performs as the portfolio matures, revolve rates stabilize, and losses curve in.
• Partner with Credit Risk and Capital Markets teams to ensure every deal model reflects realistic loss assumptions, funding costs, and capital efficiency considerations.
• Partner with the credit function to build foundational models for credit product including monthly projections of volumes, receivables, payment rates and loss curves with clearly defined assumptions for each metric tied to actual industry and internal data, including scenario analyses that support acquiring both new bank partnerships (sponsor banks) and capital providers (warehouse facilities, return-on-capital projections, portfolio performance scenarios).
• Model multi-party revenue share structures across program manager, sponsor bank, processor, and network — and stress-test how the splits behave at different volume and performance tiers.
• Lead deal review meetings on credit deals with sales leadership, translating complex credit economics into clear, actionable recommendations that help close business without compromising margin.
• Build and continuously sharpen the credit-specific deal desk toolkit — pricing benchmarks, loss-curve templates, capital-cost calculators, vintage performance models, and the dashboards that bring them together.
• Help Sales speak credibly about credit economics with prospects — from sophisticated fintech buyers building their second card program, to commercial customers thinking about a credit product for the first time.
• Stay close to credit product evolution, regulatory developments (Reg Z, CFPB, state usury), and competitive dynamics in the credit issuing space — and bring that intelligence into every deal.
• Collaborate closely with the rest of the deal desk team across debit, prepaid, and other product lines — flexing in on those deals when the team needs the bandwidth, sharing knowledge, covering each other on big deals, and raising the bar together.
• Experiment with AI to make credit deal modeling faster and better — whether that's automating portfolio projection models, accelerating scenario analysis, or building internal tools that scale your judgment across more deals.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in a quantitative field — Finance, Accounting, Economics, Engineering, Math, or any discipline that built your numerical fluency.
• 6-8 years of experience in financial planning and analysis, deal desk, pricing, credit product finance, or a related GTM finance function — with meaningful exposure to credit card or lending economics.
• Comfortable across the credit economics stack.
• An exceptional partner and team player.
• A genuinely strong financial mind.
• Thrive under pressure.
• AI-curious and hungry to experiment.
• Excellent written and verbal communicator.
• Proactive, with a bias toward improving processes rather than tolerating them.
• Advanced Excel; comfortable across Google Workspace.

Requirements

• Direct experience pricing or modeling credit card programs — issuer side strongly preferred.
• Background at a credit card issuer, fintech with a credit product, BIN sponsor bank, or program manager.
• Familiarity with BIN sponsorship economics and direct bank partnership structures.
• Experience building financial models used to pitch sponsor banks, capital providers, or warehouse lenders — including portfolio projections, return-on-capital analyses, and scenario modeling.
• Working knowledge of credit risk modeling concepts: expected loss, vintage analysis, behavioral scoring.
• Working knowledge of capital markets concepts relevant to credit card receivables: warehouse facilities, securitization, cost of funds.
• Familiarity with credit card regulatory framework (Reg Z, CFPB requirements, state usury considerations).
• SQL / data analytics experience, especially Snowflake.
• Hands-on experience building workflows or tools with AI (custom GPTs, agents, automations, prompt engineering for finance use cases).

Compensation and Benefits

• Multiple health insurance options.
• Flexible time off – take what you need.
• Retirement savings program with company contribution and after-tax contributions.
• Equity in a publicly-traded company and an Employee Stock Purchase Program.
• Family-forming benefits, fertility support, and up to 20 weeks of Parental Leave.
• Free therapy sessions, financial and professional coaching, and legal advice.
• Monthly stipend to support our remote work model.
• Annual “development dollars” to support our people growth and development.
• Through Flex First, the freedom to live and work wherever you and your family thrive.
