Project
We work on an ambitious project of building a platform for EV (Electric Vehicles) charging that should become a game changer for that quite a new industry. We do everything: from designing the hardware to developing the driver’s mobile apps. The project is very innovative and keeps expanding. There are hundreds of charging stations operating live, and we are already working on the next step of turning the solution into a universal IoT platform.
The platform ecosystem includes several mobile apps for iOS and Android, an AWS-powered Backend, and custom embedded devices with NFC, BLE and WiFi interfaces.
We are now expanding the current project team (~14 Devs/QAs/BAs involved) and forming a new subteam that will work on an isolated product backlog.
