[Jobs Roundup] These openings may help you land a role at $3B EV startup Ola Electric

Earlier this week, Ola's electric vehicle (EV) division, Ola Electric, announced it raised over $200 million led by Falcon Edge, SoftBank, and others, at a valuation of $3 billion.

The startup now aims to accelerate its development of electric motorbikes, mass-market scooters, and electric cars. The EV unicorn will use the funds to further strengthen Ola’s “Mission Electric” — a vision to catalyse users and industry entities to commit to EVs and ensure no petrol two-wheelers are sold in India after 2025. 

Bhavish Aggarwal, Chairman and Group CEO, Ola, said,

“We’re proud to lead the EV revolution from India to the world. India has the talent and the capability to build technologies of the future for the industries of the future for the entire world. I thank our existing investors and welcome new ones to Ola. Together, we will bring mobility to a billion and sustainability to the future.”

The fundraise comes at a time when Ola has set the benchmark in two-wheeler sales by selling over $150 million of scooters in its first purchase window — outselling the entire two-wheeler industry on each of the two days.
