Jai Kisan

As a Senior Product Manager at Jai Kisan, what attracted Abhishek Kumar to Jai Kisan was its mission and innovative approach. Coming from a farming family himself, the vision of driving financial inclusion in rural India deeply resonated with him. “Jai Kisan's strategy of integrating financial services with rural business solutions was both unique and compelling to me, offering an exciting challenge of leveraging technology to solve real-world problems in rural areas,” he shares. A key member of the team that developed and launched Jai Kisan’s app Bharat Khata, Abhishek is proud of his contribution towards simplifying and streamlining credit facilitation for farmers, allowing them to purchase essential agri inputs like fertilisers and seeds. His journey has been marked by significant professional development from tackling diverse challenges to broadening his expertise, with continuous learning and advancement opportunities being key factors. “Witnessing the positive changes our solutions bring to rural India is the most rewarding aspect. Success stories from farmers and rural businesses highlight the importance of our mission and maintain my enthusiasm and commitment,“ he says. What Abhishek loves about working at Jai Kisan is the openness to new ideas and positive change here. “I never restrict myself to my responsibilities; I'm always eager to tackle interesting problems across product management and technology. This environment of innovation and collaboration has positively impacted my professional growth and development.” #RuralIndia #FinancialInclusion #ProductManagement #Innovation #ProfessionalGrowth #Agritech

At Jai Kisan what inspires Aafreen Sakarkar the most is the ambition to revolutionise financial access across rural India. “We empower even the remotest rural communities, helping them avail financial services and escape the trap of exorbitant, informal credit,” she explains. Since joining Jai Kisan, Aafreen’s role has evolved significantly — growing from a team member into a valued contributor with the support and encouragement of her team. “I deeply appreciate Jai Kisan’s recognition of our efforts, whether through celebrating small victories or sending encouraging emails,” she notes. “This culture not only elevates my performance and output but also fosters strong bonds among colleagues, enriching our collaborative environment.” The Jai Kisan value, Aafreen resonates with most is "Fail Fast, Learn Faster," as it emphasises the importance of embracing mistakes as opportunities for growth. This mindset of resilience, continuous improvement, and innovation aligns perfectly with her approach to tackling challenges and pursuing excellence. #Buil4Rural #RuralIndia #FinancialInclusion #Teamwork #Leadership #Innovation #GrowthMindset

From initially being focused on driving platform traction, Creative Director Ankit Raj Bachchan says that his role since then has evolved into a multi-dimensional one - right from building a brand narrative to developing the product, conducting user surveys, designing recollection campaigns and enhancing our product’s visual communication. “In my past roles, I've always focused on users in urban India. It's a comfortable space – after all, I live in a metro city myself. But Jai Kisan offered me something truly unique: the chance to connect with the heart of India — the underserved rural population,” he says, “That's an experience very few organisations can provide.” The opportunity to delve into their needs, understand their access to financial services, and see their response to our efforts – that's what excites Ankit. It's a chance to make a real difference in the lives of millions and to be a part of building a more inclusive financial landscape for India. The culture, according to Ankit, at Jai Kisan is truly inspiring, fostering a space of inter-team collaboration and a commitment to delivering impactful results. “This environment has taught me the importance of robust business practices. The value I resonate with most is "Fail Fast, Learn Faster." It's not just a slogan; it's ingrained in our team's spirit, and it's exciting to be part of a team that takes challenges head-on.” #Buuld4Rural #JaiKisan #FinancialEmpowerment #EmployeeExperience
