Stilt (YC W16) is building an online bank for those typically underserved by the existing credit bureau reporting process, customers who are new to the United States banking system, and those with "thin" or no files. We are a Y Combinator-backed company based in San Francisco, founded by an immigrant team with expertise in finance, technology, and machine learning. We are working hard to make financial services simple for underserved applicants by building an institution that uses cross-country data, better credit risk scoring, and operational efficiency. We have built an industry-leading personal loan offering and since our launch, we have disbursed millions of dollars in loans to customers from 30 different countries.
Improving access to financial services for everyone, especially for the underserved and immigrants, has never been more critical. It is a challenging and fulfilling opportunity for someone looking to make a difference in customers' lives across the world. As we rewrite the approach to banking, we are looking for an experienced engineer who can help us build better tech infrastructure to solve this problem.
