Nov 15, Ampersand Electric Motorcycles Vehicle Maintenance Technician Jobs in Kenya

About Ampersand

Headquartered in Kigali in Rwanda, Ampersand is achieving the world’s first true mass-market shift to electric vehicles, a vital tipping point in the fight against climate change, through providing electric motorcycles to moto taxis drivers in East Africa. Our electric motorcycles offer savings that can double a driver’s income, in addition to reducing carbon emissions by more than 75%. Converting just one petrol motorbike to electric is the equivalent of the carbon captured by 128 trees.

We have successfully piloted an electric motorcycle and battery swap network in Kigali, with motorcycles in daily operation for two years and nearly 2 million km traveled. We have successfully raised more than $4M in venture capital. We have recently scaled up our tech and operations to our new headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya. This is where you come in.

The team has grown from a tiny, bootstrapped R&D garage project in Kigali, Rwanda into East Africa’s leading electric vehicle operation, with a team of over 100 staff drawn from diverse backgrounds. We are rapidly scaling our operations, and we are looking for innovative professionals who are passionate about clean energy and environmental impact to lead and contribute to our rapid growth as we expand into new markets.
