About the Organization

Dodai Manufacturing Plc (Dodai) is a pioneering electric mobility startup that launched in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, on August 1, 2023. Our mission is to make sustainable e-mobility accessible to everyone across Africa through innovative products and high-tech services. As a fast-growing organization, we are not just assembling electric two-wheelers locally; we are building Ethiopia’s largest e-motorbike and battery-swapping ecosystem to redefine urban transportation.

We believe that the future of African cities lies in green energy and efficient mobility. By assembling brand-new electric vehicles in Addis Ababa and planning a major expansion to regional cities by the end of 2026, Dodai is at the forefront of the continent’s environmental and economic transformation. Our ecosystem approach—combining high-quality hardware with a citywide battery-swapping network—is designed to solve the unique challenges of urban logistics and personal travel.

At Dodai, our culture is defined by "customer obsession," innovation, and a fast-paced startup mindset. We leverage advanced digital tools, CRM systems, and automation to achieve operational efficiencies that are 3–5x higher than traditional market peers. We are a team of visionaries and problem-solvers who value data-driven decision-making and a relentless pursuit of excellence in everything from engineering to after-sales support.

Our organizational legacy is being built on trust and reliability. We recognize that adopting new technology requires exceptional customer care, which is why we focus heavily on building long-term loyalty through superior service experiences. We are a dynamic environment where initiative is rewarded, and every team member contributes directly to the mission of democratizing e-mobility.

We are deeply committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace. Dodai Manufacturing Plc explicitly encourages women and individuals from underrepresented groups to apply for these technical, financial, and leadership roles. We believe that a diverse workforce is essential to driving the innovation needed to transform Africa’s mobility landscape, and we provide equal growth opportunities for all talented professionals.

Job Description and Strategic Impact

The roles currently open at Dodai—ranging from Customer Experience (CX) leadership to Procurement, Accounting, and Site Acquisition—are the fundamental pillars of our 2026 expansion strategy. As we aim to deploy 40 battery-swapping sites and thousands of e-motorbikes within the next 8 months, every hire plays a strategic role in ensuring our infrastructure and operations keep pace with our vision.

The strategic impact of these roles is immense. The CX Manager and Junior Procurement Officer ensure that our customers and supply chains remain satisfied and efficient, while the Senior Accountant and Site Acquisition Associate provide the financial integrity and physical footprint necessary for growth. These positions are not just about daily tasks; they are about building a sustainable ecosystem that will reduce urban carbon footprints and create new economic opportunities for riders.

Career development at Dodai is accelerated by our "startup-to-scale" environment. Employees are exposed to international service standards, cutting-edge ERP and CRM technologies (such as Zoho, Salesforce, and Zendesk), and the unique challenges of a rapidly evolving industry. We offer a professional journey where you can move from a foundational role to a leadership position as the company expands into major regional cities across Ethiopia.

A "day-in-the-life" at Dodai involves high-speed collaboration across departments. Whether you are negotiating with suppliers, scouting the next battery-swapping site in Sheger City, or analyzing cost build worksheets for imports, you will be part of a culture that values speed, accuracy, and visibility. It is an environment where your work is measured by tangible outcomes—like the number of sites deployed or the first-time fix rate of our vehicles.

By joining Dodai, you are becoming a pioneer in Africa’s green revolution. Your career will be marked by the impact you have on the environment and the efficiency you bring to urban life. We invite you to bring your passion, your technical skills, and your customer-centric mindset to an organization that is literally building the future of African mobility.
