What are the responsibilities and job description for the Operations Lead position at Divine?
Traditional credit was built for people who already have money. Requirements for credit history, collateral, and costly underwriting create insurmountable barriers for those who need capital most—over 1.4B people lack access to credit. A vendor in Lagos earns cash daily but can't prove a steady income. A Colombian nurse with years of perfect informal repayments remains invisible to banks. Most lending systems spend a lot to guess who will repay—and yet so many who are creditworthy still can’t get a loan.
We built Credit to work differently—to reveal creditworthiness through a borrower’s actual behavior. Since December 2024, Credit has issued hundreds of thousands of loans to over half a million unique borrowers using stablecoins, with decisions and settlement in seconds, no paperwork or collateral required.
Join us in advancing global access to credit.
