Who We Are
OX is a start-up automotive company with a difference: we are targeting the ~3 billion people in developing countries who have never bought a vehicle, new or used. Our strategy is to deliver affordable freight transport in emerging markets, driving a self-reinforcing cycle of economic growth and social impact. We will do this by implementing a “transport-as-a-service” strategy using our unique electric OX truck.
The OX truck is an all-terrain, high-capacity, zero-emissions truck designed specifically for emerging markets. Thanks to simple, effective, and durable design, the OX truck is more than capable of navigating extreme terrains in bad road conditions.
Position Title: Automobile Mechanic Leader
OX Rwanda needs a highly experienced automobile mechanic to help teach our young team the mechanic skills necessary to maintain our fleet of trucks and to provide expert support to our team while they maintain our trucks. You will also be responsible for developing and operating systems to ensure consistent maintenance works.
