Careers

Build mobility that is fair.

We are a small pre-launch team in Nairobi. We do not have open listings yet, but we are always glad to meet people who want to build this with us.

The teams we are building.

Four groups, one goal: a ride-hailing app that pays drivers fairly and treats riders straight.

Engineering

Mobile (React Native), web (SvelteKit), and backend (Python) builders.

Operations

Driver onboarding, city launch, and on-the-ground support across Nairobi.

Community & support

People who love riders and drivers and want them to win.

Growth & partnerships

M-Pesa, SACCOs, and the partners that make local mobility work.

Roles, opening at launch.

None of these are live yet. When they open, they open here first.

How we work

Close to the road.

We are pre-launch and small on purpose. Everyone ships, everyone talks to riders and drivers, and the work that matters is the work that lands in someone's pocket at the end of the week.

Reach out

What we value.

The things we will not trade away as we grow.

Drivers come first

Fair earnings are the product, not a feature. We build for the people behind the wheel.

Honest by default

No surge, no hidden cuts, no false claims. The price you see is the price you pay.

On the ground

We ride, we drive, we sit with the people we serve. Nairobi is our test track.

Small team, big care

Everyone ships, everyone talks to users, everyone owns the outcome.
