• Deployed +660 stations and 2,000+ fast-charging points

• Opened offices in several European countries

• Raised over €1B from leading investors and institutions

• Joined French Tech Next40 and won European Scale-up of the Year 2024

• Grown to a team of 250+ talented people… and we’re just getting started!

Your Mission

The team's mission

The Internal Tools team builds the operational layer that amplifies employee effectiveness through trusted tools and automation. We create the infrastructure that helps our colleagues work smarter and focus on what matters most.
