An early-stage venture is building the payments layer for connected vehicles - enabling cars to automatically detect, process, and settle real-world road charges without driver intervention. Parking. Tolls. Congestion charging. Airport drop-offs. Today these systems are fragmented, manual, and operationally painful. The mission: make vehicle payments invisible. The business is launching where the pain is greatest - rental and fleet operations - helping eliminate unpaid charges, reduce admin overhead, and improve customer experience through intelligent automation.
The role will commence in July, so you will need to be available to start quickly.
