Description
At Prodigal, we are building AI Agents for loan servicing and collections. Founded in 2018 by IITB alumni, our journey began when our founders Shantanu and Sangram faced the antiquated the $13B+ lending/collections industry was mostly using pen and paper and decided to build the first real intelligence layer for debt recovery.
Today, we stand at the forefront of a seismic shift in the industry, building Agentic AI applications for loan servicing and collections. Powered by our cutting-edge platform, Prodigal’s Intelligence Engine (PIE), we’re creating the next-generation agentic workforce - one that empowers companies to achieve unprecedented levels of operational excellence and intelligence.
With over 100+ enterprise customers across North America and backing from Y Combinator, Accel and Menlo Ventures, we are the fastest growing AI company in consumer finance.
About The Team
You’ll join Prodigal’s Strategy & Operations team, the consulting arm of the company. We partner with creditors in consumer finance (Banks, NBFCs & BNPLs and debt collection agencies) to transform how they engage with consumers using data-driven insights and AI-powered workflows. The team sits at the intersection of product, data science, and client operations: designing strategy, building execution pipelines, and running experiments that deliver measurable lifts in recoveries and channel performance.
Role Overview
As a Strategy & Operations Analyst, you will work with the team to execute and scale high-impact strategies and initiatives for clients. You’ll both build and scale: owning live AI based strategies, testing new ideas, identifying and solving client challenges, and driving strategic initiatives.
This is beyond a traditional consulting role where impact ends at strategic recommendations. Here, you will own strategies end-to-end, from design to live execution. You’ll have visibility over their direct, measurable impact on real business outcomes. You’ll operate in a high-growth environment with accelerated learning, full ownership, and continuous exposure to CXOs. The role also offers periodic travel to the US for client meetings and industry conferences, giving you on-ground global exposure.
This role is designed as a fast-growth pathway into a Strategy & Operations Lead position, based on performance, learning velocity, and leadership readiness.
Mode of work - 5 days in office

- Food at the office – Meals are on us. We won't let your stomach grumble while you hustle.
- Health insurance - Health always comes first. The health of your family is as important to us, as it is to you. We offer insurance coverage for both you and your family.

You're fully trusted to create the right conditions for your own personal peak productivity. We only ask that you be available to your teammates for seamless collaboration.
- Generous leave policy - Take all the time you need to recharge your batteries - no cap on vacation allowance here. Because a rested, relaxed, and refreshed mind is a happy and effective mind.
