Director of Software Architecture

Why should I consider working here?

We are e2log; a next generation Logistics Management System – the logistics business has long been behind the curve in digitizing their business and so much of global logistics is still run on spreadsheets and phone calls. With e2log this is no longer the case. We are changing the way Shippers’ Global Logistics Teams and Logistics Service Providers (LSPs) communicate and do business by providing a platform that delivers efficiency, transparency and unparalleled visibility.

We are a startup that already has funding, customers (we have large shippers and LSP’s already on the platform), revenue and a plan to grow fast. We are looking for hungry and driven like-minded overachievers to join us in this journey.
