If you are reading this, you probably already know that Polestar is an electric performance car brand. We work hard to create a unique experience for the customer, owner, and driver. The thrill of driving the car, the digital experience of buying, owning, and controlling a Polestar require us to push the limits of technology and software development. Sustainability has been there from the beginning, and we have set a moonshot goal for climate-neutral cars in 2030.

Let us describe the challenge we offer
CAS is a digital product domain consisting of four areas: Acquisition Tools, Apps and Vehicle Data, Customer Interactions, and Ownership Experience. Most of the digital products developed by the teams in CAS are customer-facing, some prime examples being the Polestar app, the test drive portal, polestar.com, self-service tools in spaces, service bookings, and many others. CAS is also home to a number of tools enabling the work of Polestars around the world, such as the event management system and the partner remarketing tool, along with some of the big internal platforms, e.g. Salesforce and content management system Dato.

Our mission is to deliver state-of-the-art solutions to attract new customers to the thrilling Polestar universe, as well as provide world-class service to existing customers, while at the same time making the life of Polestars around the globe easier by providing them with user-friendly and effective tools.
