What We Do

We build technology that changes the way the world moves. Our guiding principle is simple: the future of transportation is dynamic, shared public mobility — the kind that reduces carbon emissions across cities, compliments existing transit infrastructure, and provides equitable access to efficient, affordable ways of getting around. For everyone.

Why Work With Us

You’ll work in an established startup that’s growing at staggering speed. We have plenty of room for the most bold among us to dream it up and make it happen. You’ll be empowered to experiment, and encouraged to challenge what we’ve already done while making stuff no one’s even thought of yet.
