The posting

The roleCredit is the difference between a business that grows and one that doesn't, a family that absorbs a shock and one that doesn't. Kita decides who gets assessed fairly and how fast. That is the scale of what you'd be working on: not a metric on a dashboard, but whether capital reaches people it has never reached before, in five countries and counting. You'll build the agentic systems that do the underwriting work, harden them until they hold up under enterprise volume and regulatory scrutiny, and work directly with the founders on what gets built next.

What you'll work onAgentic workflows that run the full assessment: collecting a borrower's file across WhatsApp, Viber, SMS, and email, chasing what's missing, reconciling what doesn't match, running the financial analysis, and producing a decision-ready assessment Hardening. Getting these systems from working to reliable is most of the job: evals, failure modes, latency and cost at volume, graceful degradation when a model or an upstream system misbehaves Auditability and traceability. Every number we return has to trace back to its source and survive a regulator, an auditor, and a credit committee. This constraint shapes the architecture, it isn't bolted on Security. Our customers are regulated lenders handling borrower data. You'll build to that bar and help us clear the reviews that come with it Integrations into loan origination systems and core banking stacks, some of them decades old

What we're looking forYou go deep. You read the papers, you build the thing, and you're usually a step ahead of where the field was last month You research and build in the same motion. New capability lands, you've already tested whether it changes what we should ship Genuinely curious about the whole company. Our engineers sit in on sales calls, read customer contracts, and work closely with our customers to understand how they make decisions You operate clearly in ambiguity. Not tolerate it, operate in it: you can take a vague problem, find the real constraint, and come back with a plan Production experience with LLM-based systems and the aftermath, including hallucinations, drift, evals, versioning, and cost Strong backend fundamentals. Python and TypeScript are our daily drivers, but how you think matters more than what you've used All in on the mission. Expanding access to credit globally is the reason this job exists

We don't have a years-of-experience requirement. Show us what you've built.

Nice to haveFintech, lending, payments, or other regulated-industry work Computer vision on messy real-world documents Spanish, Tagalog

Why this oneVery few engineering jobs move real capital to real people at this scale. You'll also see it: our team travels to the markets we serve, and you'll sit with the credit officers in Manila and Mexico City using what you shipped.

Benefits: competitive salary and meaningful equity, relocation support, health coverage, international travel across our markets, offsites, team gym sessions, and a lot of good food.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
