We believe in a world where all cars are shared. Carsharing empowers people to get going in a smarter, easier way, while also having a positive impact on the environment and making cities more liveable. It’s this vision that propels us forward and inspires us to think even bigger.

Getaround (formerly Nabobil) is the world's leading carsharing platform with a community of more than 5 million users sharing over 11,000 connected cars across 7 countries.

What skills we are looking for:

• 5+ years of experience as a developer
