Job Details

Overview

Join to apply for the Fullstack Software Engineer role at Divine.

Traditional credit was built for people who already have money. Requirements for credit history, collateral, and costly underwriting create insurmountable barriers for those who need capital most. A vendor in Lagos earns cash daily but can't prove steady income. A Colombian nurse with years of perfect informal repayments remains invisible to banks. Even those with savings find themselves excluded. The economics are clear: serving the global majority remains structurally unprofitable for traditional institutions.

We abandoned these assumptions to create Credit. Instead of expensive verification, we use progressive trust-building: loans start small and can grow to USD $1,000+. In Argentina, users call it "la salvación del mes"—the month's salvation. Undercollateralized lending at scale. Since December 2024, Credit has issued 175,000+ loans to 100,000+ unique borrowers worldwide. We're building not charity but a profitable system serving those whom banks structurally cannot. We see an encouraging future: Instantaneous. Universal. Algorithmic by design. The technology exists. The demand is massive. Join us in making credit a human right, not a privilege.
