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 150+ 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 People build lives across borders, and Aspora moves their money with them. Aisha is our next bet: an AI finance agent for NRIs that does the work end to end. Most agent companies build the intelligence and hope the rails come later. We already have the rails. This role exists to build the intelligence NRIs will trust with real money. You will own Aisha completely: product, roadmap, team and results. You’ll report directly to our CEO. You’ll work closely with compliance, legal and our payments teams across the UAE, UK and India. The hard calls are yours: what to build, buy or partner on, and when the agent is ready to act. ## Who You Are To you, an AI agent is only worth building if it finishes the job. You’ve built consumer products people rely on every day, and you’ve shipped AI that holds up in the real world. - You’ve built consumer before. You founded or ran a product people used daily, and you know what users forgive and what loses their trust for good. - You’ve shipped AI that works in production. You have operated evals, orchestration, tool use and failure modes yourself, not just read about them. - You bring money-grade judgement. You’ve worked where mistakes move other people’s money, or you can show you learn regulated domains fast. - You lead by doing. You stay close enough to the product and the code to make the call yourself. - You’ve moved quickly everywhere you’ve been. Your track record shows people kept trusting you with more, sooner than expected. - You’ve been tested. A failed launch, a company that died or a regulatory wall. You made sound calls under pressure and followed through to the end. Most importantly, you want to prove that AI can be trusted with people’s money. ## What You’ll Own This role comes with a founder’s mandate, inside a company that already has licences, partners and customers. - Own Aisha end to end. Take it from early build to a product NRIs trust with real money tasks. - Shape the agent stack. Decide what to build, buy or partner on across models, orchestration, data connections and agent payment rails. - Make reliability the product. Build an agent that completes long, multi-step tasks, with evals, guardrails and failure modes treated as core features. - Ship consumer-grade experiences. Own onboarding, activation and retention, starting with a hundred research sessions a week that you recruit yourself. - Build the founding team. Hire senior engineers first, then add design and data as the product earns them. - Act safely on licensed rails. Partner with compliance and legal so the agent can move money without ever becoming the incident. What you build will decide how far Aspora goes beyond payments, and how fast we get there. ## Why Aspora - You’ll define what a trustworthy AI finance agent looks like, and own the outcome it delivers. - You’ll work directly with our CEO, with compliance, legal and payments as partners from day one. - You’ll build on licences, bank partnerships and live corridors that most agent startups spend years chasing. - You’ll own product, roadmap, team and results from the day you join. - Competitive salary, comprehensive benefits, and ESOPs aligned with Aspora’s long-term vision. ## About Aspora ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Aspora is building a borderless financial operating system for Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), enabling cross-border money transfers, savings, bill payments, and investments. - **Entity Type**: Private - **Headquarters**: London, United Kingdom - **Founded**: 2022 - **Founders**: Parth Garg (CEO) ## Core Business - **Primary industry/industries**: Financial Services, Cross-Border Payments, Fintech - **Target customers**: B2C (Non-Resident Indians / Global Indians living in the US, UK, UAE, and EU) - **Mission or purpose statement**: "Building borderless finance for NRIs" — helping global Indians manage money seamlessly while staying connected to the people and places they love. ## Products & Services - **Cross-Border Money Transfers**: Send money to India at "Google Rates" (live mid-market exchange rates) with zero hidden fees. 256-bit encryption and 24/7 support. - **Global Savings Accounts**: Save in global currencies with up to 9% interest. - **Automated EMIs & SIPs**: Automated recurring payments for loans and systematic investment plans. - **Bill Payments**: Stay on top of bills in India from abroad. - **Business Banking (in development)**: A "Founding GTM Specialist (Business Banking)" role is open, indicating an upcoming B2B offering. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed. - **Key Metric**: Over $2 billion securely transferred worldwide; over ₹150 crore saved by users in forex fees. - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly disclosed on the website or LinkedIn.
