About AidKit

AidKit’s cutting-edge technology transforms complex cash assistance programs into streamlined, secure, and dignified experiences. By seamlessly connecting applicants to vital resources, we're making aid radically accessible for diverse populations—including unhoused and unbanked individuals. From simplifying benefits modernization projects for state agencies to standing up efficient disaster relief programs, AidKit helps its partners deliver aid with dignity.

We were our own first customer—AidKit started as a nonprofit initiative born from the need to support systematically excluded workers during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The role may also require attending occasional in-person events such as outreach or meetings with the County or Community Based Organizations.

Key Responsibilities

• Respond to applicant support tickets via phone, email, and text using AidKit's custom tools, ensuring accurate, friendly, and timely responses.
• Leverage AidKit’s custom platform to conduct thorough application reviews carefully and quickly, validating correct documents, flagging where corrected documentation is needed or potential fraud to ensure compliance with program and documentation requirements.
• Participate in program-specific training sessions and RSS team meetings.
• Collaborate with other RSS and Managers to identify common applicant issues, reduce fraud, and improve AidKit’s overall recipient support process.
• Troubleshoot applicant issues during the application and payment processes to ensure timely resolution.
• Perform additional applicant support & review tasks as needed based on program demands
