Design jobs at Volta Charging

Volta Charging

At Volta we’re on a mission to accelerate the adoption of the electric vehicle. Volta's award-winning charging stations benefit brands, consumers, and real-estate locations by providing valuable advertising space to businesses and convenient charging to drivers.

You will work directly with our design leadership team to translate high level concepts and raw data into engaging interfaces for some of our most important products. These include reporting tools that support our site partners like Whole foods and Walgreens, our network planning tool that predicts electric vehicle charging demand, and a data platform that monitors our charging stations in real time.

This role is a three month contract position. If you are fired-up about pushing design boundaries while creating memorable user experiences we’d love to hear from you. Please submit a link to your online portfolio in your application.
