Edinburgh, Edinburgh, United Kingdom Ember Core Ltd Full time
About Ember Core Ltd

We're building the future of public transportation — convenient, affordable, connected and zero-emission. Our goal is to make it easier and more enjoyable to get from A to B with Ember than it is with your own car.

Ember Core Ltd is a tech company, not a traditional bus operator. We've built a platform that coordinates our entire operation – everything from monitoring vehicles and controlling chargers to selling tickets and calculating ETAs. This allows us to use electric buses more intensively than anyone else in the world, leading to a massive reduction in emissions. It also helps us provide a much better passenger experience, with innovative features like demand-responsive stops.

We're still tiny, with a handful of routes and 38 buses. We've raised equity from some of Europe's leading climate VCs and are looking for mission-driven individuals who want to help take us to the next level.

Job Responsibilities
  • You will work on a wide variety of projects that touch all aspects of our business.
  • Collaborating with our mechanics to develop efficient solutions for tracking wheel re-torques.
  • Researching textiles and wireless charging pads to design cutting-edge seats.
  • Designing a task management system for charging hub staff based on their typical day.
  • Discussing possible data models with our engineers to store guaranteed connections and present them to customers.
Impact

Your work will significantly contribute to reducing carbon emissions by promoting zero-emission public transportation.

Diversity and Equality

We support diversity across our team and customers. Every employee feels respected and able to give their best, whether temporary, part-time or full-time. We offer flexible working patterns where they make sense, are compassionate when it comes to time off and offer enhanced maternity and paternity leave.

What's on Offer

As a competitive salary of £55,000 - £95,000 per annum, depending on your skills and relevant experience, you'll also be granted share options through an EMI scheme.

Though we value in-person communication, we're flexible if you want to work from home on some days.
