About ALSO.
We’re ALSO, an electric mobility company originally conceived as a part of Rivian.

Our mission is to inspire everyone to ride ALSO—replacing many local car, truck and SUV miles with ones on vehicles that are more affordable, more enjoyable and 10-50x more efficient.
ALSO is seeking a Senior Manager, Public Relations to help shape our global communications strategy while owning execution and results across the Americas.
