KYC Operations

About Aspora

People on the move deserve a bank that moves with them. Since 2022, Aspora has been building a borderless financial operating system that makes money as mobile and transparent as its users.

Backed by influential venture capitalists like Sequoia Capital, Greylock Partners, Hummingbird Ventures, Y Combinator & Global Founders Capital. We're a team of 75+ across India, the UK, the UAE, EU and the US, working with extreme ownership, radical candour, and an obsession with customer impact.

We celebrate builders who question assumptions, ship fast, and turn regulatory complexity into elegant solutions. If you’re driven to redefine what global banking can be, we’d love to build the future with you.

About the Role

We’re hiring our first KYC Operations specialist in GIFT City to build and run our verification processes from the ground up. You’ll work closely with our bank and technology partners to get us live, ensure every onboarding is seamless, and create operational systems that scale as we grow. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role where you’ll be trusted to execute independently from day one, with the opportunity to build and lead a team as volumes grow.
