Dott is the European champion of shared micro-mobility. Created through the merger of operators TIER and Dott in March 2024, the company decided to move forward under the name of Dott and integrated all vehicles into the Dott app. With the mission to change mobility for good, the team is led by CEO Henri Moissinac and President Maxim Romain. TIER-Dott facilitates sustainable travel, reduces congestion and pollution in cities, and decreases reliance on cars. With more than 250,000 shared vehicles in more than 400 cities across 21 countries in Europe and the Middle East, the 10 million users have generated over 400 million rides so far.

We are looking for a hands-on engineer with a strong mechanical backbone to support the entire life-cycle of our e-bike and e-scooter fleet - from initial design and testing to deep-dive root-cause analysis. In this role, you will act as the vital bridge between our field operations and core engineering teams, leading mechanical projects while providing secondary support on electrical/IoT topics.
While the focus is predominantly mechanical, you will also support electrical topics. This is an active role where you will split your time 50/50 between desk-work and getting your hands dirty in our workshop. Additionally, you will regularly travel to our local markets or vendors (approximately once per month) to investigate how our vehicles perform in their "natural habitat".
THE ROLE AND YOUR IMPACT AT DOTT
Failure Analysis: Partner with reliability engineers to drive quality processes such as 8D & FMEA, diagnosing complex mechanical and electrical failures (e.g., bearings failures, BMS corrosion and connector wear) and assessing risks to define containment and corrective action
Warranty & Evidence: Build solid technical evidence to support warranty claims or guide the development of internal hardware solutions.
Solution Development: Use CAD to design new components and tools, or develop new technical processes to solve vehicle issues. Once validated, you will work with the Implementation team to roll these out across the fleet.
Field Engineering: Conduct real-world testing and investigations in various markets. You will collaborate with local technical teams to understand how vehicles are operated, repaired, and used by customers to guide your investigations.
Testing & Validation: Review vendor test plans and reports to identify technical risks. You will provide clear conclusions on test sufficiency and, when necessary, develop and execute your own internal or external lab test plans.
Vehicle Development Support: Translate your field findings and failure analyses into actionable insights for our engineering teams to ensure future vehicle iterations are optimized.
Experience: 3–5 years in mechanical or mechatronics engineering. Experience in Micro-Mobility is a significant plus.
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Mechatronics, or Automotive Engineering (or a similar field).
The Skillset: A proven track record of handling mechanical engineering projects, with the basic electrical comfort needed to troubleshoot sensors, batteries, and wiring harnesses.
Technical Tools:
Proficiency in CAD tools (Fusion 360 is a plus).
Experience with 3D printing.
Data and productivity tools: Jira, Google Workspace, Tableau, BigQuery and Claude.
Hands-on Mindset: Professional or hobbyist experience in a workshop setting; you must be eager to get your hands dirty.
Mobility: Ability to travel (averaging once per month) across Europe, the Middle East, and China.
Salary range: 50 000 Euro - 65 000 Euro
