YOUR MISSION AT VOI

Our platform uses a combination of modern cloud-managed services and open-source solutions, and it powers the micromobility revolution where we operate over 150K connected vehicles across Europe.

• Contributing directly as an engineer when needed, building solutions and automating processes that improve reliability, scalability, security, and developer experience across the platform.
• As CISO, owning and driving the company's information security strategy – including risk management, compliance (e.g. ISO 27001, GDPR), incident response readiness, and security-by-design across products and infrastructure.
• Actively advocating and driving technical excellence across R&D.
• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure that the platform provides the cloud services and tools needed for squads to work effectively and efficiently. 
• Staying up-to-date with the latest trends and best practices in software engineering, data, and cloud infrastructure.
• Managing vendors and supplier relationships and own both budget and negotiations.
