As matching with relevant people takes time, I have decided to get started finding a CTO for GreenCarLane.
Don't mind the current geolocation of myself or the startup. Your geolocation is either UK or EU. No recruiters.
We are looking to build a diverse team on all levels and therefore we will take our time to find the right fit and as I am an extroverted introvert I tend not to be impressed by bullshitters, meaning people who oversell their skills, experience and capabilities and try to convince you they are THE fit ("shit"). We follow the principles of "The Infinite Game" by Simon Sinek. Profiles with a finite mindset will not be considered.
I want genuine people, self-critical, a mix of hands-on coder as we are at the early stage and strategic thinker due to growth, driven and ambitious, with strong EQ.
We are a European-based early stage software startup revolutionising the automotive industry with our innovative digital marketplace for electric vehicles (EVs) and charging solutions.

At our company, we believe that diverse, inclusive teams drive innovation, performance, and excellence. When joining us, you are empowered to learn, lead, and perform at your best, shaping the future of our company. We have an existing team and are looking to add an additional member who will bring their unique perspective and skills. Both providing and receiving constructive feedback to ideas, suggestions and the work.
This is a place where you're welcomed as your own perfectly unique self and celebrated for the skills, talent, curiosity, problem-solving abilities, perspective, solution-finding capabilities, and honest opinions you bring to the table.
We provide equal opportunities without regard to race, color, gender, sexual orientation, transgender status, gender identity and/or expression, marital status, pregnancy, parental status, religion, political opinion, nationality, ethnic background, social origin, social status, indigenous status, disability, or age.
