Backend Developer - Ruby / Rails - Remote / Onsite

Getaround is the world’s leading carsharing platform with a community of over 5 million users sharing thousands of cars in over 300 cities in the United States and Europe.

The Getaround app allows city dwellers who don’t own a car to instantly reserve a vehicle, whether for a few hours or a few days, directly from their smartphone.

Founded in 2009, the startup has experienced very strong growth: it is now present in 8 countries and recently expanded into Europe with the acquisition of car-sharing startups Drivy and Nabobil.

The headquarters are in San Francisco and the team has offices in Paris, London, Berlin, Barcelona, and Oslo.

Getaround has been certified Great place to work in France and Norway, for the year 2022.

We’re the world's leading carsharing platform, with millions of users around the world, sharing thousands of cars in over 950 cities across 8 countries.

Our mission is simple: Make our cities better places to live through carsharing.

Carsharing empowers people to move in a smarter and more sustainable way: studies show that one shared car replaces between 4 and 10 privately owned cars, which frees up space in our cities while giving communities 24/7 access to cars when they need them.

With our connected car technology, users can quickly and easily book and unlock a wide variety of vehicles directly from our app, without ever having to meet anyone in person, carry an access card, wait in line, or coordinate picking up keys.

To reach our vision of a world where all cars are shared, we need a strong team to help us disrupt car ownership. We look for people who are curious, positive, and engaged; who can adapt and learn quickly; who have the skills and smarts to reach their goals autonomously, while having the generosity and mindset to work collaboratively. No matter your role, background, or level of experience, we believe that every member of the team can have an impact.

We’re extremely proud to be certified a “Great Place to Work” in 2022!

What you will bring to the team

Getaround handles thousands of rentals a day and making a non-virtual experience frictionless is a big challenge. For that, we're looking for rigorous people with a strong product mindset who cherish creating highly reliable software in a collaborative and inclusive environment.
