Who Are We?

We are passionate engineers interested in simplifying complex problems and focusing on improving the customer experience for sellers, buyers, and operations.

Our primary focus is to account for these constraints, maximize shipments, minimize costs, provide various delivery options, and maximize delivery performance. To achieve this, we must build highly available and scalable distributed systems to handle every package traveling internationally.

Why You'll Love It:

  • Our systems touch every package that travels internationally, requiring highly available and scalable distributed systems

  • Focus on developing the best through weekly learning series and mentoring

  • Opportunities to participate in hackathons and team events
