Connected Cars is working on an ambitious project to connect millions of car-owners with their vehicles by hooking into the on-board diagnostics available in every modern car, and we are looking for enthusiastic and motivated people to join us on that journey. Our mission is to enable safer, more sustainable, and more convenient mobility to the world through responsible and transparent data collection and sharing.

Our team consists of around 50 people from different backgrounds, brought together by a shared belief in team effort, fun at work, and delivering quality.

The position

We are open to someone that is new to React Native but has experience with native development on Android or iOS and is willing to learn

We are currently using Node.js, Python, Go, MySQL and BigQuery on the backend, Yocto, Rust, Python and TypeScript on our CAN stack, React on web, and React Native for our mobile apps on iOS and Android. On the hosting side we are using Google Cloud and several other modern cloud services.

We believe in release early, release often, which is why we run several daily releases using our continuous integration and deployment setup.

Developers work in small teams of about 3-4 people each. We focus on minimal overhead and bureaucracy as we want to ensure independence and that decision power stays within the teams. This means that teams have a lot of influence on how they work, what they focus on, and how they deliver new features and functionality.

As an app developer at Connected Cars you will mainly be working with developing our mobile apps for iOS and Android. Currently, this includes apps for Volkswagen, SEAT, Skoda, and Audi. You’ll be responsible for publishing the apps to the apps stores.
