Senior Golang Backend Engineer
CAFU has a vision to create a better world through connected mobility, serving both consumers and businesses. We started as an on-demand fuel delivery app and have now extended our services to car wash, tyre change, battery change and insurance...but this is only the beginning.
We have global plans to become a super app, offering products & services which are agnostic of fuel and mobility. Cafu is a technology business passionate about sustainability and positively impacting the communities we operate in. We’ve already won awards for best AI platform and voted LinkedIn’s Number 1 Top Start-ups 2023!
