О компании

We’re ALSO, an electric mobility company originally conceived as a part of Rivian. We’re a passionate team of builders, dreamers, doers and innovators, focused on creating entirely new (not to mention, innovative and delightful) vertically integrated, small EVs designed to meet the global mobility challenges of today and tomorrow. Our mission is to inspire everyone to ride ALSO—replacing many local car, truck and SUV miles with ones on vehicles that are more affordable, more enjoyable and 10-50x more efficient.
As a Senior Cloud Backend Developer on the ALSO team, you will drive technical excellence and architectural decisions for our core infrastructure that delivers an excellent customer experience on ALSO's flagship connected EVs. You’ll lead the evolution of our connected EV platform, from secure data ingestion to product facing APIs, and influence how we build and scale at ALSO. You balance speed and rigor, know how to scale systems, and thrive in fast paced 0→1 environments. The systems you build will power core product features and enhance our analytics and fleet intelligence capabilities.
