Full Stack - Software Developer for on-demand / ride hailing software company. This role has a significant equity stake and leads the technical vision and execution for Vamos’s AI-powered taxi software platform and mobile apps, across backend and frontend, data, and product strategy.

This is a full-time position with a substantial equity stake and a path to shaping core technology for a growing mobility platform. Location options include London, UK and Los Angeles, USA (remote-friendly).

Responsibilities

• Lead the end-to-end design, development, and deployment of Vamos’s AI-powered taxi software platform and mobile applications (driver and rider).
• Develop, train, and implement AI/ML models, including data acquisition, preprocessing, and deployment.
• Architect scalable backend systems on modern cloud infrastructure (AWS or similar), including database and API management.
• Own the full-stack development process, using backend languages and modern front-end frameworks (React, React Native, or similar).
• Build and manage robust staging, testing, and production environments.
• Integrate AI agents and automation to enhance customer experience, pricing, dispatching, ETA accuracy, routing, and operational efficiency.
• Ensure security, privacy, and compliance across all digital systems.
• Implement agile methodologies (Scrum/Kanban) with regular sprint planning and retrospectives.
• Collaborate closely with founders to define technical vision and product strategy.
• Build and lead the technical team as we scale.
• Take full responsibility for data acquisition, management, and analysis—leveraging real-time mobility, telematics, traffic, geospatial, and customer data to drive insights and product features.
• Deliver rapid prototyping and MVPs, followed by robust, scalable SaaS solutions for both B2C and B2B markets.

What We’re Looking For

Must-Have Skills

• Full-stack development (front-end experience with React/React Native or similar and backend PHP, Java, etc).
• Experience with SWIFT, iOS and Android apps.
• Proven AWS/cloud skills (EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS, etc.).
• Experience with staging, CI/CD, and agile delivery.
• Data acquisition, cleaning, and real-time processing at scale.
• Strong understanding of security, privacy, and regulatory best practices.
• B2C marketplace and/or B2B SaaS experience highly desirable.
• Strong knowledge of building scalable, high-availability platforms.
• Familiarity with Stripe (or similar) payments, mobility/transport data APIs (maps, traffic, telematics), and third-party integrations (bonus).
• Proactive leader able to operate autonomously and drive innovation.

Bonus Skills

• Ideally experience in taxi/ride-hailing/mobility or fleet/dispatch software, but not mandatory.
• Prior experience building or launching platforms in mobility, transportation, logistics, or on-demand marketplaces.
• Familiarity with mobility-specific data sources and regulatory environments (e.g., TfL/TLC compliance, GTFS/MaaS, telematics integrations).

Mindset

• Entrepreneurial, driven, and comfortable with ambiguity.
• Goal-oriented, hands-on, with a bias for action and delivery.
• Passion for building world-class digital experiences and changing how industries operate.
• Excellent communication skills and willingness to work collaboratively with non-technical co-founders.

What You Get

• Founding Lead Dev / CTO status: Significant equity stake (1–15% depending on expertise and commitment).
• Salary: Introduced as soon as revenue is generated or funding is raised (expected soon).
• Full benefits package following funding.
• The chance to shape and own the core technology for a game-changing taxi software platform.
• Opportunity to recruit and lead your own technical team.
• Fast path to personal growth, influence, and major financial upside (targeting IPO or acquisition in 5 years).
