Job Description
Kuda is a money app for Africans on a mission to make financial services accessible, affordable and rewarding for every African on the planet.
We’re a tribe of passionate and diverse people who dreamed of building an inclusive money app that Africans would love so it’s only right that we ended up with the name ‘Kuda’ which means ‘love’ in Shona, a language spoken in the southern part of Africa.
We’re giving Africans around the world a better alternative to traditional finance by delivering money transfers, smart budgeting and instant access to credit through digital devices.
We’ve raised over $90 million from some of the world's most respected institutional investors, and we’re rolling out our game-changing services globally from our offices in Nigeria, South Africa, and the UK.

As a manager, you'll foster an environment of continuous learning and improvement, ensuring that your team stays ahead of the curve in terms of industry trends, emerging technologies, and the most effective methodologies in the field of data science.
Key to your success will be your ability to translate business challenges into data-driven solutions while balancing technical execution with strategic vision. Your leadership will help scale Kuda’s impact, bringing high-quality, machine learning-based credit solutions to millions of customers across Nigeria and beyond.
Key Responsibilities
- Team Leadership : Manage and mentor a team of data scientists, fostering a collaborative and innovative environment.

- Continuous Improvement : Stay abreast of industry trends and emerging technologies to continuously enhance model performance and team capabilities.
- Education : Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related field.
