Senior Backend Engineer
Since 2018, Voi has been on a mission to create safe, sustainable and reliable micromobility for everyone. Today we are the #1 e-scooter service in Europe, operating in +100 cities with over 100 MILLION rides to date. It has been an amazing journey and we have no intention of stopping now.
To be able to reach our mission - we need great problem solvers onboard (yes, talking to all Backend Engineers out there).
At Voi, you won’t just be working with the latest technology - you’ll shape the product we put out on the streets. You’ll have the opportunity to work with a wide range of engineering; from designing the vehicle, soldering the IoT hardware, creating the communication protocol, developing the tech foundation, innovating on the app and finally operating all this as a whole.
