Getaround | Senior Backend Software Engineer (Python) [Multiple Openings] | Full-Time | Remote-first with San Francisco, CA HQ Collaborative Space (US, near Pacific Time) | getaround.com

Getaround connects safe, convenient, and affordable cars with people who need them to live and work. Our community includes guests who rely on our cars for on-demand mobility and hosts who share cars on our platform including those who operate their own car sharing businesses. Our connected car technology allows guests to book and unlock a wide variety of vehicles directly from our app without ever having to meet anyone in person, carry an access card, wait in line, or coordinate picking up keys.

Cars are parked 22 hours a day on average. When we share cars, we don’t need as many on the road, which means fewer accidents, reduced traffic, and less space required for parking. Car sharing modernizes mobility by allowing people to connect multiple forms of efficient transportation for any type of use case.

Studies show that when car sharing is available, people drive less and drive vehicles more appropriate for their use case, which can reduce household carbon emissions by up to 40%. Also, shared cars are used more frequently and retired more quickly, accelerating the adoption of newer, more energy-efficient vehicles.

We support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to “make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable”. To learn more, take in this short video featuring Getaround as part of the Vision 2045 campaign: https://youtu.be/VPKsANLTawI

Re:What I wish I knew before moving to San Francisco on Thursday January 17, 2013 @02:53PM (#5074805)
Doesn't make much of a difference for the Boston/Bay Area comparison, but I think the combined statistical areas are more indicative: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Combined_Statistical_Ar...
Re:What was the matter with PDF? on Thursday January 03, 2013 @11:21AM (#5003018)
This is one of the bigger reasons I got my iPad (Retina). I can read most PDF textbooks/documents in full screen portrait without any zooming or scrolling with ridiculous text clarity. No other device I have allows for this nearly as comfortably.
