Credit Acceptance followed through on its previous pledge to name its new chief technology officer this month.

And like many of us, the subprime auto finance company found what it sought via Amazon.

Credit Acceptance on Thursday announced that Jeetu Mirchandani, a veteran technology and artificial intelligence executive with more than two decades of leadership experience at Amazon, will join the company as CTO on Aug. 27.

In this role, Mirchandani will lead Credit Acceptance’s Engineering organization and technology strategy, helping accelerate the company’s digital-first, AI-enabled evolution and deliver simpler, more seamless experiences for customers and dealer partners.

“As we continue transforming Credit Acceptance, we are investing in the capabilities that will help us better serve our customers and dealer partners while creating long-term shareholder value,” Credit Acceptance chief executive officer Vinayak Hegde said in a news release. “Jeetu has operated at the forefront of some of the most significant technology and AI advancements of the last two decades.

“His experience leading large-scale organizations, driving innovation at a global scale, and applying emerging technologies to solve complex business challenges makes him an exceptional addition to our executive leadership team. I am excited to welcome him as we continue building a more innovative, agile, and customer-focused company,” Hegde continued.

Mirchandani joins Credit Acceptance after more than 21 years at Amazon, where he helped build and lead some of the company’s most critical technology organizations.

Earlier in his career, Mirchandani led the technology organization responsible for key elements of Amazon’s global fulfillment network, overseeing large-scale engineering, product, and science teams supporting one of the world’s most sophisticated supply chain operations. He later scaled teams from startup initiatives to global organizations of more than 500 engineers, product managers, scientists, and technology leaders.

Most recently, as head of applied AI, Credit Acceptance highlighted Mirchandani influenced how AI technologies were applied at scale to solve real business and customer challenges at Amazon. He partnered directly with Amazon’s CEO and CFO to help shape and execute the company’s AI transformation strategy, translating emerging technologies into measurable business outcomes across Amazon’s retail and healthcare businesses.

Throughout his career, Mirchandani has played key roles in evaluating major acquisitions, including Twitch and Goodreads, helping assess their technical strategy and long-term integration potential.

Mirchandani also holds multiple U.S. patents spanning machine learning, data-driven personalization, and advanced technology systems.

“Throughout my career, I’ve been passionate about solving customer problems using the right technology at scale,” Mirchandani said. “Credit Acceptance has a compelling mission and a strong foundation, and I am energized by the vision and what we can accomplish together.

“I’m excited to partner with the team to help build a more data-informed and AI-enabled organization that delivers even greater value for customers, dealer partners, team members, and shareholders,” Mirchandani went on to say.
