About Us
Today, e-commerce last mile delivery is chaotic, frustrating and inefficient for merchants, carriers and consumers.

We’re already backed by leading European VCs and high profile business angels and can’t wait to share with you what the future holds for Karla!

  • Strong knowledge of the agile software development lifecycle and continuous integration

  • Flexible set up around your personal preferences and life constraints - make the job fit your life, not your life fit the job

  • Attractive ESOP package for long-term partnership and incentivisation 

  • Remote and flexible working set up with an attractive office for brainstorming and co-location in Berlin Mitte

  • The opportunity to work first-hand with mission-driven founders and a tightly knit team in a flat hierarchy
