ABOUT AMPLE:

Ample is an ambitious startup changing the way energy is delivered to electric cars. The goal of our innovation is to make it easier for a much wider range of users to own and operate an electric vehicle. By weaving together smart battery technology, robotics and a better designed car-battery interface, we can create an Electric Vehicle (EV) infrastructure orders of magnitude faster and cheaper than any existing solutions.

Our team solves very complex challenges by combining creative technology design with fast iteration. This is not a company for the faint of heart. You’ll be working with a small, intense and highly capable team on cars, robots and intelligent batteries. If the technology doesn’t exist, we’re not afraid to turn a dream into reality, while always keeping in mind it must be designed for reliability, affordability and easy deployment. As a part of our team, you will help bring to fruition, technology which will have a significant, positive environmental impact!
