om/jobs Who we are, what we do, and how it's going Back in , we saw an issue with last-mile delivery - it was too complicated and stressful for drivers.
Circuit started a mission to change that by choosing to develop an app that put the driver and their customers first.
We were astounded by the response we received.
Within our first year, we had almost customers, $100k in ARR, and a team consisting of our two co-founders, Jack and Pol.
Today, we now help more than drivers deliver over 1bn packages worldwide (about 20 a second!), $20m ARR, and a lean team of ~40.
Your Skills and Experience  In short, we are looking for someone with experience in a similar role at a Senior+ level (possibly in a start-up where you covered a lot) or who has software engineering and tech support experience.

We’re not the right fit for you if you rely on regular meetings to keep on track Sacrificing quality.

This will remain an individual contributor role, at least for now.
Working with junior folks.
You need to be okay with doing more low-level and administrative tasks.
