Company mission

To make cities more habitable by offering a safe, reliable and efficient alternative to private vehicles.

Role

Who you are

  • Great alignment with our principles
  • Knowledge of common algorithms & data structures
  • Experience in developing medium/large-scale web applications and distributed systems in a production environment
  • Experience with common design and architectural patterns
  • Ability to work on your own, but being a good team player too
  • Ability to understand and help to make great product and business choices
  • Ability to achieve results in a fast-paced, changing environment
  • Logistics knowledge will be valuable and taken into consideration

What the job involves

  • We are looking for engineers with experience working with any backend technology; you will be working with Go and Elixir for your day-to-day tasks.
  • We believe that even if you have spent your career working with other programming languages like Java, you can quickly pick up Elixir or Go. For us, it is more important to have someone who is adaptable and learns programming languages quickly
  • While your primary focus will be on backend development, having frontend skills—specifically with LiveView—will be valuable. This will allow you to contribute more broadly across the stack!
  • Collaborate with the whole team on developments planning and architecture designs
  • Coordinate subprojects, building and maintaining distributed, clean, testable and data oriented applications
  • Improve services reliability, scalability and performance
  • Own your code all the way to production with a self-service continuous delivery pipeline and production infrastructure
  • Dive deep into host-level problem-solving and help to improve detection methods
  • Play a vital role in nurturing our engineering culture, emphasizing quality through peer-reviews, monitoring, and on-call best practices
  • Mentor junior developers to help them grow
  • Collaborate closely with the Data Science team on data oriented feature development

Our take

In the pursuit of global sustainability, the desire for more efficient urban practices has gained momentum. The prevalence of traffic congestion worldwide not only disrupts travel but also exacerbates the climate crisis due to the overwhelming number of vehicles on the road. Cabify introduces the concept of 'mobility as a service' (MaaS), prioritising both ecological integrity and community welfare.

Cabify serves as a bridge between individuals and businesses, offering customised transportation solutions to cater to diverse needs. The platform extends flexible payment alternatives, enabling users to opt for per-journey or monthly billing. What sets Cabify apart is not only its expansive presence across 40+ cities and a workforce of over 1,000 employees but also its commitment to fostering self-employment opportunities for numerous driver partners, thereby supporting local talents and economies.

Recent developments highlight Cabify's steadfast trajectory. Recent capital infusion provides the company with the means for the expansion of operations, reinforcement of technological infrastructure, and the procurement of 1,400 electric vehicles in alignment with its sustainable agenda. Moreover, Cabify's financial report reflects a surge in annual gross revenue and profit.
