You need strong software skills, a sense of ownership and a desire to learn and grow.

Skip's mission is to energize cities by making mobility accessible to everyone. We believe this requires designing every aspect of a micromobility network from the ground up. This includes custom vehicle hardware, the software-defined fleet management system, and ground operations for safety and recharging. Our success will make it easier for everyone to work, play, and connect in their communities.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

  • Shape the roadmap for Android at Skip
  • Ship new features for Skip Riders and Rangers using Kotlin, Dagger & Rx
  • Write beautiful code that scales well (both in operations per second and complexity)
  • Work in cross functional pods alongside backend engineers, product managers and UX designers using agile development to continuously deliver value to millions of users

YOU SHOULD HAVE:

  • BS/MS in STEM field (CS, Math, Physics etc)
  • 3+ years of experience in a team setting shipping an app to the Play Store
  • Excellent communication skills

WHAT WE OFFER:

  • The satisfaction of delivering an amazing experience for millions of people, from complete strangers to your friends and family.
  • A culture built around putting the customer first, prioritizing dependability, safety, and transparency.
  • The opportunity to learn about and solve difficult technical challenges, such as fleet management for hundreds of thousands of light electric vehicles.
  • Personal, professional, and leadership growth at a fast-growing startup at its inflection point.
  • A cross-functional work environment that includes experts in diverse fields like government policy, hardware engineering, mobile and cloud software, supply chain logistics, and trust and safety.
  • Competitive salaries and benefits, including coverage for health, dental, and vision insurance

WHY JOIN SKIP?

Designing from the ground up is important for supply chain and fleet management, especially when it comes to reliability, safety, business management, and a great rider experience. Our leadership team has the most experience in designing light electric vehicles from the ground up. Our founders previously were co-founders at Boosted, where they designed and built the first reliable micromobility vehicle and presented their work at TED.

We know our customers aren’t just our riders, but also the public and city governments. We helped create the first scooter sharing permit in the US, were the first to share data on scooter usage with cities, and have been at the front of transparent operation around fleet management and vehicle safety. The result is deeper collaboration with cities, fewer complaints from the public, and a better experience for our riders.

We are backed by some of the world’s best investors, including Accel, Menlo, Y Combinator, Initialized, A Capital, and Paul Graham.

Skip is an equal employment opportunity employer. We are dedicated to providing an inclusive, open, and diverse work environment.
