Why wait for the future
when we can create it?
- People Team


What the mission are we up to?
We inspire & develop the builders of optimism.
We like to think of smart as Optimism’s Workshop. That’s why smart is a magnet for people who like to see the good that’s possible, and then work to make it happen. It’s a career path with great weather, views and fellow explorers.


We like putting vision into action.
The smartest choice for a better planet.
It’s easy for us to be optimists at heart because we’ve dedicated ourselves to seeking solutions for a better urban life.
We don't want to predict the future. Instead, we want to create it. And that takes a hands-on mentality and openness to collaboration so we can build the mobility of the future.
We are motivated by change & innovation combined with our diverse mindset and skills to contribute to our mission.

What’s a new brand new?
We want a future we can’t wait to get to.
You can’t make a new future by using old methods. You need a new, brand new. So sometimes, our ideas might sound a little crazy. That’s how we know we’re on to something. Because anything crazy is not the status quo. Which means it might have a chance of working. And making the kind of planet we all want to live on. So bring your big dreams and out-of-the-box ideas to work please, they have a home here.
How you value yourself matters, how you value others really matters.
Fail faster, be nice and be uncomfortably open.
Have a look at some of our values and let’s make it a match.
Culture smart
We are only as good as our employees. No, really. Every time we hire someone, they’re not like anyone else who’s already here. Which means smart becomes different, bigger, more diverse, and quite frankly for us, more interesting. Because you’re now in it.


We are optimists at heart, constantly pushing ourselves to be the frontier of creating the future we all want to live in. And at the same time, always reinventing ourselves as better workmates and employees.
In the end, that's what it always comes down to. Just us. Because when we feel good working together, amazing things happen.
At smart we want people to thrive by shaping an environment that allows us to build the future of mobility out of thin air. And that takes a hands-on mentality and an openness for collaboration.
