About The Position
Freightos is
the online marketplace for the trillion dollar freight industry. With a
stellar investor portfolio that includes GE Ventures and Aleph, $50
million in funding, and a team with a track record of successful exits,
the five year old company is transitioning from startup to rapid revenue
growth.
Which is important, because freight matters.
90%
of everything we eat, wear or use is shipped or flown from other
countries by the global freight (cargo) industry. But freight sales
technology is stuck in the '90s, without automation and pricing
transparency. Our unique patent-pending algorithm and sophisticated
cloud-based stack change that, automating freight pricing and routing.
Which is why after less than five years, most of the world's biggest
freight forwarders use Freightos technology.
We’re not the only ones excited about changing the world. You can read about Freightos in the BBC, TechCrunch, the Wall Street Journal and others.
But moving freight better starts with shipping great code.
