Most obviously, given Citymapper’s current incarnation as a transportation routing app, the service is running on custom-built routing software. The company, which has been awarded a six-month licence by TfL, is trumpeting a number of improvements on the standard bus experience, of course.
We’re also reinventing the bus for the smart city era.It will be a real London bus in almost every way: taking payment for rides stopping at a number of normal bus stops in between its two destinations running on a timetable and even being … well, a bus as opposed to a coach, minibus, or electric autonomous “pod”. Citymapper uses the power of mobile and open transport data to help humans survive and master them. If you believe in what Citymapper is doing - if you're ready to build new kinds of navigation tools and demand responsive transit for the world's biggest, messiest cities - give us a shout. We're currently hiring across many teams and experience levels. The fruit is hanging low for smart, motivated people. There are features to ship, hard problems to solve, and scaling challenges to meet. We need great engineers who are up to the challenge of making cities usable. We breathe, eat, sleep, and dream mobility and cities from the algorithms to the data to the tools that make the tools.
What unites us in an intense desire to create the best products, data and tools to help people move around complex cities. In our small team, we represent more than a dozen countries and languages. Some come with letters after their name like “PhD” or from backgrounds in things like astrophysics some come with no formal engineering education or from backgrounds in veterinarian compliance.
Citymapper engineers come from diverse backgrounds: startups, big tech companies, and even those that have never worked anywhere before.
