About The Position

We are looking for a Senior Engineer to join our growing team! A senior full-stack software engineer who will report to our engineering lead, and who will own entire customer-facing or internal products. We're building systems like AI-powered pricing intelligence, real-time connectivity to vehicle manufacturer APIs, auction application, and data pipelines that aggregate EV-specific information from dozens of sources - all to make the wholesale EV market faster, smarter, and more transparent. As a member of the team you'll help lay the technical and product foundation for our growing business. We're building a culture that cares about collaboration, encourages intellectual honesty, celebrates technical excellence, and is driven by careful attention to detail and planning for the future. We believe diversity of perspective and experience are key to building great technology and a thriving team. Sounds cool? Let's work together.
