At GiveDirectly, we send cash directly to people living in extreme poverty, no strings attached. It's one of the most rigorously studied ways to address global poverty, with 20+ randomized controlled trials behind it, and we've delivered over $1B to more than 1.5 million people across 15 countries.
Your work will translate directly into money in the hands of people who need it. We're in a phase of tremendous growth (aiming to 5X delivery YoY) and you'll help build the systems for offline data collection in low network rural villages, fraud detection and prevention, KYC, and payments.
