Apply for this job We usually respond within two weeks About Monta Monta powers the EV charging ecosystem. With 300,000+ monthly users and millions of charge sessions every month, our platform accelerates the electrification of mobility. This is a fast-moving place. The problems are hard, the pace is quick, and the bar is high. If you like real ownership, figuring things out, and seeing the direct impact of your work, you’ll do well with us. AI is built into
how we work. It helps us ship faster, make better decisions, and stay lean. Everyone at Monta is expected to use AI tools thoughtfully — and to find smart ways to use them to move the work forward. Our principles keep us grounded: Build Together & Finish, Sweat the Details, Customer First, and Aim for the Moon. The best part of Monta is the people — sharp, ambitious, and good to be around. You’ll be challenged, supported, and trusted to deliver. We’re looking for a Kotlin/PHP Staff Backend Engineer who’s ready to roll up their sleeves, take ownership, and build with us — through the grind and the wins. This Is What You Will Achieve Power the #1 CPMS & EV charging Platform: Build the robust, scalable infrastructure necessary to make Monta the undisputed global leader in Charge Point Management Systems. Scale the Roaming Network: Strengthen our existing roaming functionality. Your work will directly impact how seamlessly thousands of EV drivers connect to charging points across different networks. Innovate on Standards: Implement exciting new features including the latest OCPI versions and Plug & Charge capabilities. Turn vision into reality: Balance technical ambition with sleeves-rolled-up execution to ensure our fleet and roaming offerings remain best-in-class. What You’ll Do Own the full lifecycle: Scope out
requirements and plan new features in collaboration with
the team, taking code from ideation to production. Cross-team execution: Work closely with Roaming Ops, Product, Frontend and other Backend teams to navigate ambiguity and ensure features integrate seamlessly. Ensure quality at speed: Perform automated validation and verification testing while supporting your teammates with thoughtful code reviews. Monitor and Maintain: Utilize tools like Grafana and Loki to monitor system health, ensuring reliability for the drivers who depend on us. Own outcomes in a high-trust environment where we value execution over perfection. Navigate ambiguity and shifting priorities keeping momentum when it matters most. Celebrate wins and learn fast from misses alongside an ambitious, diverse team. Push boundaries with courage and resilience while staying true to our DNA. A brief overview of our tech stack: Kotlin services with Micronaut and Exposed PHP/Laravel monolith Dart/Flutter (incl. Flutter Web) for apps Typescript/React (+Next.js) for web apps and rapid prototyping Observability via Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenSearch/Kibana AWS + Kubernetes with Helm and Argo CD for deployments What We’re Looking For Staff level IC experience : Proven track record of technical leadership across multiple teams or an entire department, rather than focusing on a single functional area. Have had external stakeholder management experience History of "owning" a major technical domain (e.g., Infrastructure, Core Services, or Data Platform) through multiple stages of growth and evolution. Extensive experience conducting deep-dive code reviews that focus on architectural consistency and long-term maintainability, not just syntax. Tech Stack: You are proficient in Kotlin (Micronaut) and PHP (Laravel) , or have strong experience in one with the ability to quickly master the other in a mixed environment. EV Roaming OCPI experience: It is not a requirement to have OCPI experience, but it's definitely a plus if you have. Clear & pragmatic communicator who builds alignment fast. Authentic team player with empathy, openness, and ownership. Comfortable with AI-powered tools to accelerate your work (Claude, Gemini, Codex, etc.), with the willingness to learn more. If the mission excites you but your experience isn’t a perfect 1:1 match, apply anyway - we care about potential, not perfection. AI Competency You’ll be expected to work with AI-powered tools. Some we use: GitHub Copilot / Claude Code ChatGPT / Gemini / Claude Notion AI (docs, knowledge, meeting notes) AI-enhanced testing & monitoring (e.g., generative QA, Grafana ML) We don’t expect mastery of al, but we expect comfort learning, experimenting, and adopting AI responsibly Why Monta Ownership from day one — we don’t micromanage, we expect you to deliver. Becoming number one is not easy — priorities shift, and flexibility is sometimes needed to get things across the finish line. But so are the rewards: impact, growth, and a team that has your back. The people are extraordinary — talented, driven, and fun to work with. You’ll be challenged, supported, and inspired in equal measure What We Offer A yearly education budget and extra days off to use it. A friendly and social company culture with movie nights, Friday bars, pub crawls, and more. Free lunch every day. Pension & health coverage to keep you secure for today and tomorrow. Paid parental leave to support life’s big moments. Warrants program - be part of our growth story.
