About Ever:
Ever is the next-generation automotive retail company. We are building the first full-stack AI automotive dealership to redefine the car shopping experience – starting with building the best way to buy and sell electric vehicles.
Since our founding in 2022, we have raised +$15M in Seed funding from leading institutional investors, built our omnichannel retail business from scratch, and developed cutting edge internal software to support long-term scalability.
As a tight-knit and ambitious early-stage team, we are looking to onboard world-class operators and builders to key roles. We have brought together talent from diverse backgrounds in building Ever, including finance and consulting (BCG, J.P.
