At CheQ, we’re turning the chaos of credit into a journey that’s clear, rewarding, and even a little fun. With ₹50,000 Cr+ in lifetime payments, a growing tribe of users (30%+ using more than two products), and $16M raised from marquee investors, we’re fast becoming India’s favorite way to go from credit-stressed to credit-smart. Founded by ex-Flipkart leader Aditya Soni and backed by 3one4 Capital, Venture Highway, Ram Shriram, Lloyd Mathias and more, CheQ isn’t just another fintech, it’s a full-stack credit experience.

We are an agile, technology-first team that believes engineering is not just about execution, but about shaping the product and the business. Our engineers operate with high ownership, taking ideas from concept to production and standing by the outcomes they deliver. Customer-first thinking is at the heart of everything we build. We deeply understand user needs, challenge assumptions, and partner closely with Product and Design to create experiences that are intuitive, performant, and thoughtfully designed. Strong design principles, simplicity, and usability guide our engineering decisions as much as scalability and reliability.
