Regional credit union modernizing core lending and operations infrastructure
State Employees Credit Union operates a 66-year-old member-focused institution across New Mexico with a 51–200 person team. The tech stack reveal—SQL, Python, Pandas, Airflow, dbt, Snowflake, BigQuery—signals a data engineering push atypical for regional credit unions, likely driven by pain points around delinquency reduction and manual transaction elimination. Current hiring is skewed toward finance and operations roles (26 of 37 open), with active adoption of nCino and MeridianLink (modern lending platforms), indicating a shift away from legacy lending systems.
