Careers

Build something drivers actually need

Small team, real users, and a product where getting it right changes whether someone can work tomorrow.

We're not actively hiring, but we keep an eye on good people. Send us what you do and why Detour, and we'll come back to you when something opens.

What it's like

  • The users are drivers, and most of them are on a cheap Android on a congested connection. Every decision gets measured against that, not against a laptop on office wifi.
  • It is a regulated product. What we say on a page about money is checked before it ships, and "it's just marketing copy" is not an argument here.
  • The team is small enough that whoever builds a thing owns it, including the part where it breaks at eleven on a Friday.
