About KIRA

Our mission is to make money smart, reliable and within reach for everyone. In 2019, we built the first mobile-first, insurance platform, enabling insurance to be accessible online by millions in the region.

 

Today, it's the leading insurance platform in Southeast Asia. Today, we are expanding ways to help people in Asia and it includes spending, saving, investing, exchanging, travelling, and more. Our objective is to build tools that will help people get more from their money and at ease and self reliance, become an expert. We believe AI will help us achieve this in our generation.

 

We are looking for the most talented and driven people we can find. We are looking for people who work for their passion, not counting hours. Who loves building great next-generation products, not status quo. Who cares about redefining how everyone around us can get the best financial applications, not for an exclusive few.

  • Use analytics, user behaviour and production issues to improve the product.

  • Build AI-assisted mobile experiences only where they genuinely improve the user journey.

 
What We're Looking For

  • Strong sense of mobile UX, usability, edge cases and user flows.
