Finance Manager

About Assurekit

Assurekit is on a mission to protect the internet's GDP.

Every day, billions of dollars in transactions flow through India's digital economy — across marketplaces, payments, logistics, and commerce platforms. But the protection layer that should sit underneath all of it hasn't kept pace. Buyers worry about what arrives at their door. Sellers absorb losses they didn't cause. Platforms carry risk they were never built to hold.

We're building the infrastructure that fixes this — embedded directly into the platforms people already use, invisible until it's needed, and engineered for the speed and scale of digital commerce. Our partners include some of the largest names in the Indian internet and our reach grows every transaction we protect.

We're backed by tier-1 investors and are building what we believe will become foundational risk infrastructure infrastructure for the next billion digital consumers.

If you want to help build category-defining infrastructure, work alongside a team that moves fast and thinks sharply, and have a real shot at shaping how protection works in the digital economy — we'd love to talk.
