Why apply Buying a used car has been essentially the same for 75 years: what's the mileage, what's the vehicle history, get a mechanic to check out the moving parts and haggle over the price. As electric vehicles (EVs) hit the used market, buyers are changing the way they research and buy.
Why are we doing this? Road vehicles represent 20% of carbon emissions globally, and have accounted for the vast majority of transportation emissions increase since 1970. Electrifying passenger vehicles, in parallel with transitioning our power grid to cleaner energy sources, really moves the needle on climate. We're going to be a critical part of making that shift — facilitating the secondary market.
Your Work With Us As Head of Product, you'll have the whole product (every interface, every user, every API and every piece of data) in an elaborate mental model in your head at once. Marketers, engineers, data scientists and customers will be feeding you information and trying to pull the product in different directions at the same time.
You're the one who'll follow connected logical threads, determine priority and find the best path forward, if it's a problem that should be solved: ("If we make this change, that'll cause these users to behave differently as intended, but it'll be hard to build because of the way we implemented a related module and it may cause an unanticipated side effect in our customer support process. Let's mock up a potential solution and rough UX to see if we solve that. I'll pull together the right 3 people and test two solutions with our users tomorrow.")
