Descrição da oferta de emprego

About Vammo Vammo is building an accessible, resilient, and scalable clean energy network for emerging megacities, starting in Latin America. By combining electric motorcycle subscriptions with a rapidly expanding battery swap infrastructure, we make clean transportation affordable and reliable for the millions who keep cities moving.

Founded in 2022 and headquartered in São Paulo, Vammo has raised $100M from top‑tier investors across the globe. Our founders and team represent an incredibly diverse and international group that is built of former executives coming from Tesla, Uber, Rappi, iFood, Loggi, Niu, Jump and others.

• Act as the final escalation point for critical incidents, conduct post‑mortems, and implement structural changes to prevent recurrence.
