Description

Description OVERVIEW Join Us at a Defining Moment Patriot Bank is in the middle of one of the most exciting chapters in its history — a large-scale bank turnaround with a focused, ground-up transformation of how we manage credit, data, and risk. We continue to rebuild our credit function around modern technology, automation, and analytics, and we are looking for a sharp, ambitious Credit Analyst to help lead that effort from day one. This is not a seat where you will quietly maintain someone else’s spreadsheets. You will build the systems, dashboards, and models that define how a bank understands its own portfolio — with direct visibility to executive management and a Chief Credit Officer personally invested in your growth. If you want to point to real things you built, learn faster than your peers, and be part of a genuine turnaround story, this is the role. Why This Role Is Different Build, don’t just report. You will architect automated reporting and a daily “Portfolio Health” dashboard from the ground up — not inherit a legacy process. A tech-forward credit culture. We embrace Python, SQL, AI, and modern data science to do credit better. One of our mantras is Always Be Improving. Executive visibility from day one. Your analysis will directly inform the Chief Credit Officer’s monthly reporting and senior-management decision-making. Career acceleration. A pivotal, high-trust environment where strong performers take on responsibility quickly and see the impact of their work across the entire institution. About the Role We are seeking a highly motivated and analytical early-career Credit Analyst to join our Credit Administration team. It is an ideal launchpad for a recent graduate with strong technical, analytical, and communication skills who wants to build a career in banking and credit while doing genuinely modern, high-impact work. You will lead in-depth analysis and reporting on the Bank’s loan portfolio and play a key role in monthly credit reporting, credit policy development, and strategic decision-making. The position carries a strong focus on programming, automation, and data science — extracting, transforming, and analyzing data from the Bank’s core system (Fiserv) to produce automated, actionable reporting that directly supports executive decision-making. A signature early project: standing up a daily “Portfolio Health” dashboard of key credit metrics and trends, alongside advanced models to forecast and monitor credit performance. ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITES include the following: Automate Data Extraction & Transformation Analyze, segment, and report on loan portfolio performance using data extracted from the Bank’s core system. Develop automated data-extraction processes from core systems to support recurring and ad-hoc reporting, including the Chief Credit Officer’s monthly report. You will use Python scripts to automate the process. Build expert-level command of the Bank’s loan data architecture and core-system reporting tools. Perform Advanced Credit Risk & Statistical Analysis Maintain and enhance a daily “Portfolio Health” dashboard summarizing key metrics and trends— delinquencies, non-accruals, risk-rating migrations, portfolio concentrations, Annual Review / Tickler completion rates, line-utilization rates, and new loan activity. Develop tools — including AI-assisted methods — to safeguard data integrity across portfolio reports and core systems. Build Predictive Models Develop models that strengthen the Bank’s early-warning and portfolio-monitoring capabilities. Apply data-science techniques — static pool analysis, cohort modeling, regression, and other statistical methods — to identify trends and forecast credit performance. Integrate the CoStar portfolio-management platform and Abrigo underwriting tools to automate trend notifications to senior management. Visualize & Communicate Portfolio Insights Create clear, actionable visualizations and dashboards that bring portfolio metrics and trends to life. Draft high-quality memos and documentation supporting credit policy, underwriting guidelines, and regulatory reporting. Help build an AI-driven credit-policy system that links policies and concentration limits into a single source of truth, with automated update suggestions based on regulatory directives. Conduct targeted research to support portfolio assessments, policy development, and regulatory analysis — resourcefully and quickly.
