Software Engineer (£35-40k salary + options) Location: Remote or Hybrid (UK-only) Deadline: ASAP (applications assessed on rolling basis)About RideTandem  (ridetandem.co)RideTandem is enabling sustainable commuting options for all. Outside of big cities, traditional public transport is just not good enough. In many places, if you don’t have a car, you might find it difficult to get to work, access healthcare, or get to the supermarket. While almost all transport technology companies focus exclusively on huge cities like London, New York or Berlin, Tandem is the first technology company focused on directly improving transport options for people living in towns and small cities. Tandem’s tech-enabled partnerships with local taxi, minibus and coach companies offer a uniquely flexible alternative, providing employers, local governments and others with bespoke transport solutions that also do good in the world. By making it easier for our passengers to share their commutes and other journeys, we’re reducing the number of cars on the road, and enabling our passengers to earn circa £2m+ of wages/month in roles they’d otherwise not be able to even get to.As a fast-growing start up, no two days at Tandem are the same. We’re committed to making transport better for everyone, and we’re working towards that goal by creating user-friendly tech, providing world-class customer service and helping get people to where they need to be, every single day.
