Building Financial Infrastructure

Building blockchain isn’t just for cryptocurrency. We’re using it in Sierra Leone to help unbanked people get access to financial services. Our work is already serving as a model for other countries.

Building Bright Futures

$25 can go a long way. From farmers to students to women-owned businesses, we crowdfund millions of dollars in loans each week to help people change their lives.

“Seeing Kiva’s impact and meeting the people who make it happen helped me connect my own contributions at Kiva to the opportunity we create in the world.”

Philip Minnitte, Senior Manager, People & Culture

Let’s talk perks.

We want our employees to feel good about their careers. We also want them to feel good in general. To help out, we offer great health benefits and tons of perks.

Global work. Global offices.

We hire the best people we can find, wherever they happen to be. That means some of our employees work remotely from home, and others work in our offices around the world. We currently have offices in: San Francisco, Portland, San Jose, Chicago, New York, Nairobi (Kenya), and Bangkok (Thailand).

We’re growing fast, so we’ll be opening new offices soon. Hopefully near you!
