Last-mile delivery is where logistics gets hard. Wrong addresses, inefficient route plans, and tools that don't respond to real-world changes.
Bettermile was founded to close that gap, using data, automation, and deep logistics expertise to make every delivery more predictable. Today, our products reach depots, drivers, and consumers in 20+ countries, making the entire delivery experience better for everyone involved. The problem is still big, and there's still a lot to build.
Expect to collaborate outside your lane. Some weeks you'll be deep with engineering, others with customer success. Your role is your starting point, not your boundary.

Millions of parcels reach the right door because of decisions made here. You can trace a feature you shipped to a depot that runs more smoothly, and to a driver whose day got easier.

We skip the top-down hierarchy so you can run with a great idea while it’s still fresh. Cross-functional teams form naturally around a project, find their own rhythm, and see it through to the finish line.

A fast pace means we sometimes miss. That's fine. What matters is that we say so, learn from it, and move forward. If that sounds honest rather than alarming, we'll get along well.

Decisions aren't handed down from above. If your team builds it, your team ships it and your team learns from it.
Product, Engineering, Data, and Operations sit in the same product squad. Most of our best ideas come from the overlap.
Once you apply, our team reviews your profile. If there’s a match, we’ll reach out to kick off Step 1! This is a casual, two-way conversation with a member of our Talent Acquisition team. We want to hear your story, your past experiences, what drives you, and your unique blend of hard and soft skills. It’s also your perfect opportunity to ask us more about the role and what it’s really like to work here.
Building on our initial conversation, this step takes a closer look at the position itself. You’ll meet directly with a Hiring Manager, someone you’ll be working closely with day-to-day, and might be your future mentor. Since you’re speaking with someone from your field, you’ll have a true peer-to-peer conversation diving into your background, specific technical/professional experience, and how you can make a meaningful impact.
Depending on the role, this phase might involve one or two steps (like a case study, live coding challenge or a technical discussion). This isn't about trick questions, it’s a space for you to showcase your hands-on expertise. Equally important, it gives you a transparent look at the types of tasks and challenges you’ll be tackling day-to-day.
Great work isn’t done in a vacuum, which is why we place a massive emphasis on our team dynamics. In this step, you’ll meet with your potential future colleagues. You’ll get a genuine feel for how we interact, communicate, and solve problems together, ensuring that we are just as good a fit for you as you are for us.
In this final conversation, you'll meet with a member of our leadership team. We'll shift our gaze to the bigger picture: our overarching company strategy, how your role shapes that vision, and your personal career aspirations. This is also your chance to ask us anything still open - about the business, the strategy, or how decisions get made. Together, we'll reiterate one final time how the role fits you. To complete this stage, we'll also reach out to 1–2 former colleagues for a quick reference check to better understand your work style and learn how we can best support you.
If it's a yes on both sides, we'll call you with the offer and walk you through it - salary, level, and what your first months would look like. Take the time you need to decide. We'd rather you say yes properly than quickly.

We want to hear about your studies, your past experiences, what drives you, and your unique skills.

Building on our initial conversation, you’ll meet directly with your prospective Hiring Manager, someone you’ll work closely with and who will likely be your future mentor. Since you’re speaking with someone from your field, you’ll dive into your background and complete a practical skill evaluation (such as a technical discussion, brief case study, or practical task) to showcase your hands-on potential.
Collaboration is where the magic happens! In this step, you’ll meet your potential future teammates to get a genuine feel for how we interact, communicate, and solve problems together. Depending on the role, this step may also include a short practical element or group discussion to see how we collaborate in real-time.
If everything aligns, we’ll jump on a quick call to extend a formal offer, discuss your working hours around your university schedule, and answer any final questions before you join us!

Before you apply, you probably have questions.
Here are the ones we hear most - answered without the corporate gloss
We work in a flexible hybrid setup, spending 2 days a week in our Kreuzberg, Berlin office, with each team deciding together which days work best for them. We use our time in the office to build real social bonds, so you can look forward to a pet-friendly space full of community events, like shared breakfasts and lunches, yoga and mindfulness sessions, plant and clothes swaps, board game nights, or movie screenings.
We aim to keep our hiring process smooth and efficient, usually taking under 30 days from application to offer. While schedules can sometimes shift and things might take a bit longer or shorter, communication is our top priority, we’ll always keep you updated on where you stand every step of the way so you’re never left guessing. In case you are in doubt, you can always reach out to a dedicated Talent Acquisition Manager.
We're organized into tribes, crews built around outcomes, not hierarchy. Each tribe owns a big chunk of the product. Inside each tribe you'll find small, autonomous, cross-functional teams mixing engineers, product folks, data and QA specialists as well as designers. We also run chapters, think guilds for your craft, where e.g. backend engineers share knowledge and level up together.
We of course have many more teams that keep the engine running: Customer Success, Marketing, User Insight&Support, and Product Enabling make sure what we build actually lands with users and grows the business. It's fluid and collaborative.
Beyond what’s listed in our job ads, we deeply value intrinsic motivation and a user-centric mindset. We thrive on autonomy, curiosity, and open communication, so we love teammates who aren't afraid to speak up, share fresh ideas, or ask questions. Above all, we look for supportive team players who maintain great productivity while truly respecting and celebrating diversity.
We start with a structured HR onboarding process to get you fully set up with your equipment, access, and everything you need to know about how we operate. You’ll meet all the teams you’ll be working with, and you'll have full daily and weekly support from your dedicated mentor and teammates to enable you to do your magic. From there, the journey is shaped around what you need to feel confident, gain autonomy, and start shaping our products together!
Some of our best engineers had never thought about last-mile delivery before joining. Curiosity about the problem matters more than prior industry experience. Some roles might still need this kind of niche experience. In this case, you will see this listed on the requirements on the job ad.
A little prep goes a long way! Doing a bit of homework on what we do beforehand will help you connect your experience to our work, and please don't hesitate to ask us any questions about the role, the team, or what's next. Most importantly, just come as you are, we care far more about getting to know the real you than hearing rehearsed answers.
We use Ashby to help keep our recruitment process organized and to ensure no application gets missed. However, AI does not make hiring decisions for us, applications are personally reviewed by a member of our dedicated Talent Acquisition team.
