Credit Karma is a mission-driven company, focused on championing
financial progress for our more than 100 million members in the U.S.,
Canada and U.K. While we're best known for pioneering free credit
scores, our members turn to us for tips as they work on their financial
goals, including helping them monitor their credit, identity monitoring,
searching for credit cards, shopping for loans (car, home and
personal), filing their taxes with Credit Karma Tax and growing their
savings* -- all for free. Credit Karma has grown significantly through
the years: we've added more than 70 million members in the last five
years alone and now have more than 1,100 employees across our offices in
San Francisco, Charlotte, Los Angeles, Leeds, London and soon Oakland.
Your role will be to own and lead our continued scaling in the U.K., and
drive key decisions along the way that will influence our entire
engineering organisation.
