🚀 Are you ready to build the future of credit in Southeast Asia?

At Datung, we’re redefining microfinance through AI-powered underwriting and community-driven lending — backed by Google, Nvidia, and top venture capital funds.

Our mission is bold: unlock fast, fair, and scalable capital for the 42M+ underserved micro and small businesses across Southeast Asia — starting in the Philippines.

We’re hiring a Senior Loan Officer to own loan processing, approvals, and credit documentation. This role is crucial — you’ll ensure every qualified entrepreneur gets access to the capital they deserve, while keeping our operations tight and compliant.

🙃 Why you should NOT join Datung

We’ll be honest — Datung is not for everyone.

We’re an early-stage, AI-first fintech startup rewriting the rules of microfinance. That means things move fast, break occasionally, and rarely follow a playbook — we're building it!

If you’re still reading, maybe you’re our kind of crazy:

1. Hate slow decisions and legacy systems? Same here.
2. Live for precision, structure, and smooth loan operations? We’ve got work to do.
3. Thrive in environments where initiative is rewarded? You’ll fit right in.
4. Want your work to actually matter? Every loan processed is a lifeline to a real small business.
5. Need polished processes and perfect tools? Not yet. Come help us build them.

We’re obsessed with impact and allergic to BS.

We celebrate wins, own our losses, and back each other up.

If you're mission-driven and hungry to build, this might be the best “why not” of your career.

🎯 The Role: Senior Loan Officer

You’ll be the backbone of our credit operations — reviewing loan applications, approving deals, handling documentation, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. You’ll work closely with our credit, sales, and field ops teams to make sure loans go out fast, clean, and with full compliance.

🛠️ What you’ll own

• Review, verify, and approve incoming loan applications
• Ensure all documentation is complete, compliant, and audit-ready
• Coordinate closely with field agents and sales teams during disbursement
• Spot fraud and flag risky or suspicious cases
• Maintain accurate records and update loan management systems
• Continuously improve our loan workflows and admin processes

👀 You might be a fit if you…

• Have 5+ years of experience in microfinance, banking, rural banking, or MSME lending
• Are extremely organized, detail-obsessed, and admin-savvy
• Can make firm but fair credit decisions, even under pressure
• Know how to balance empathy with risk awareness
• Are based in Metro Manila and willing to go to our offices in Parañaque and Las Piñas 1-3 days a week.
• Excited to work with small businesses and love helping entrepreneurs grow, and want your work to mean something.
