Why this role matters
At Vahan.ai, we’re helping 300M+ blue-collar workers in India find jobs. Over time, we want to become the center of all money and financial needs for blue-collar workers. We’re a Y Combinator company that is backed by marquee investors such as Khosla Ventures, Founders Fund and Temasek. Several executives from Google and Flipkart are also investors in the company.
Vahan’s platform already helps thousands of blue-collar workers land better jobs every month.
