About this role
Role overview
About the company
Media & Internet, Social Networks
At Kiki, we're on a mission to unchain people from the financial constraints of rent. We’re working to create a world where people can leave their homes without the burden of paying rent while they're away. Many people are hesitant to let someone stay in their home, which creates a massive trust gap. Our goal is to bridge that gap, building the kind of trust that makes people feel comfortable with a stranger in their home- just as they would with family or close friends. Once we break through this barrier, our Kikiers will experience the freedom of being able to travel, spend time with family, or take work trips without being financially tied to their homes.
