Our Mission:
Driving technology always feels old. Not by a little bit. We believe vehicles can be a thousand times smarter, safer, and more connected to the world around us, and our mission is to see it happen. In 2019, we joined forces with Honda as their first startup acquisition, and now we’re expanding our vision into building the future of electric vehicles (BEV) for millions of people around the world.

By becoming a part of our team, you'll contribute to a crucial mission that revolutionizes the way people engage with vehicles, addressing both business needs and the world's environmental challenges. This presents an exceptional opportunity to be at the forefront of innovation and drive Honda's success in the EV market.
 
About the Role:
The Software Engineering manager will lead a team of cross-disciplinary mobile engineers to develop a companion app for Honda’s next generation of EVs. We’re using modern technologies including Kotlin Multiplatform, Jetpack Compose, and SwiftUI to develop cutting edge automotive features.
