Is this you?

Who are we?
Monta’s powerful SaaS platform connects the dots in the entire EV charging ecosystem. As a B2B2C company with an engineering-driven culture, and engineers comprising one-third of our team, we offer comprehensive, tailored software solutions for drivers, businesses, and industry partners.

We'll use this funding to enhance our software-only strategy, expand into new markets, and improve our product for an electrified future ⚡

Here are some things you’ll be working on:
We’re looking for someone who has a keen sense of both business outcomes and technology. Someone with a bias towards action.

• Some days you will find a smart way to help operational teams go through their daily tasks - some days you will be working on tools that shape collaboration across teams at Monta

Here’s what you’ll achieve:
You hate waiting in line, you cringe when you see a manual process that could be automated and you are passionate about making the day to day lives of your colleagues better. Improving something incrementally, delivering value fast, and delighting your stakeholders brings you joy. Helping your engineers "think like an owner" makes you happy

• Apply the latest in AI/ML to various internal business processes
• Build web applications, macros, and CLIs to streamline business operations
• Build APIs to make all our tools talk to one another
• Streamline revenue operations, content localization, legal reviews, transaction processing
• Enable your coworkers to become superheroes with the application of technology

• You think and act like an owner
• You should have a strong passion for seeing people grow and shipping quality software at the same time.

• Able to foster an environment of continuous innovation to keep the company at or near the latest and greatest while maintaining responsible software development practices
• You should be a strong communicator, with both technical and commercial stakeholders.

• You have experienced growth stage at a startup, you want more of that
• You have - through experience - learned that doing great things is very difficult and requires hard work
