About the job
Join Ember as a Senior Network Analyst and be a pivotal part of our mission to revolutionize public transport. In this dynamic role, you will design and enhance our network by identifying route opportunities, creating effective timetables, and leveraging data analytics to optimize every aspect of our service. We value clarity of thought, practical problem-solving skills, and the ability to manage multiple projects at once.
About Ember
At Ember, we're redefining the future of public transportation to be more convenient, affordable, connected, and environmentally friendly. Our aim is to provide a transportation alternative that surpasses the convenience of personal vehicles.
As a tech-forward organization, we are not just another bus company. We’ve developed a comprehensive platform that manages everything from vehicle monitoring and charging control to ticket sales and ETA calculations. This innovative approach enables us to maximize the usage of electric buses, significantly reducing emissions while enhancing passenger experiences with features like demand-responsive stops.
Despite our current small scale with a limited number of routes and 98 buses, we are poised for exponential growth. Our recent Series A funding from leading climate-focused venture capitalists is fueling our ambition to expand our operations 50-fold while maintaining lean operations, improving efficiency, and enhancing the product experience. We are seeking passionate individuals ready to contribute to our transformative journey.
The Role
This versatile, hands-on position encompasses the entire lifecycle of route development, from identifying opportunities on the map to launching routes and continuously improving them post-launch. As part of a small, empowered team, you will take the lead in problem-solving and innovation.
Identifying new routes will involve in-depth exploration of Google Maps, evaluating existing transport options, conducting field tests, and engaging with local communities to assess their needs. You will need to navigate the capabilities of our fleet of electric coaches and charging infrastructure, balancing optimal route designs with the efficient use of these resources. Remember, the most appealing route on paper may not always be the most practical one.
Your insights will also contribute to shaping Ember's future direction, requiring a strategic outlook that considers the network as a whole rather than focusing on isolated routes. Your voice will play a crucial role in discussions with our founders.
