• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work proactively across global, cross-functional teams.
• Excellent planning, organization, and attention to detail.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Word/Excel or Google Docs/Sheets.
• Experience with Jira, QuickBase, NetSuite, or Zip is a plus.
• Strong work ethic and ability to support production schedules and team priorities.

Our team is made up of engineers, researchers, innovators, dreamers and doers, who are creating a technology with the potential to transform the way we move.

Higher purpose, greater impact.

We’re creating first-of-its-kind technology that will transform transportation. To do so successfully, we must design for everyone in our cities and on our roads.

We’re driven to scale; we’re moving towards commercialization of our technology, and we need team members who are ready to embrace change and challenges.
