Job Description

We focus on old industries where there is huge room for automation. Today, Shipamax serves some of the largest players in the bulk shipping industry and is processing 20 million emails & attachments annually. We're currently expanding into our second vertical - the Freight Forwarding market - where we're seeing customers jump at the prospect of applying our technology to automate data entry.


As a Python Engineer you will work in the data science team and focus on extracting data & meaning from documents. Day to day you'll be:
