Default Brand

Default Brand is a digital-first credit union headquartered in Purchase, New York, operating nationwide. Founded in 1934, it serves over 65,000 members representing more than 50 companies, offering high-yield savings, free checking, HELOCs, and mortgage products. The organization describes itself as a technology company at its core, building its banking infrastructure around digital-first financial services. It is federally insured by the NCUA and has been recognized by Bankrate, Yahoo! Finance, CNET, Business Insider, and CNBC. From a security standpoint, the attack surface is significant: a fully online credit union handling member financial data, account access, and transaction processing at scale across the US. The threat model spans account takeover, fraud targeting high-yield savings and HELOC origination flows, and the broader risks inherent to any platform where a single compromise can expose sensitive financial records tied to tens of thousands of members. Technical domains center on digital banking infrastructure and technology-driven financial services delivery. The team builds and maintains systems that power real-time account management, competitive-rate product offerings, and the security controls required to keep member funds and data protected in a federally insured environment. Candidates joining this team would be working on the security and technology stack of a credit union that explicitly positions itself as a technology operation, not a traditional banking institution.
