Neural Network Specialist

Who are we looking for? Neural Network Specialist

Whats the story ?

In India, there are more than 453+ million migrants. Less than 2% of this cohort uses mobile payments to send money home. While penetration of UPI and digital banking hit the ceiling, this invisible workforce that powers most of Bharat is still stuck in a cash economy and remains underbanked. branchX is India's first neobank enabling empathetic banking for migrant communities. Building banking that is meaningfully accessible to every aspiring Indian goes beyond the 9-5 bustle. If you are someone who derives fulfilment from purpose-led work with the ability to experiment, innovate, fail and iterate, branchX is the playground for you.

Location: Navi Mumbai.

About Us:

Launched in June 2020, branchX is India's first neo-banking solution, enabling empathetic banking for migrant communities. Our vision is to transform the way underbanked communities manage money with a hand-holding grid aided by intelligent technologies. Headquartered in Navi-Mumbai, we are a 100+ member impact-driven team with offices in Noida, Bangalore, Kochi, Tamil Nadu, Kolkata and other locations.

Where do you come into the picture?
