ABOUT STOWGA
Our mission is to help companies transform their supply chains through warehousing as a service.
Our technology enables an innovative on-demand model to warehousing. Our platform allows warehouses to optimise their space by offering under-utilised capacity to customers who take that space without the long-term commitment of a lease. By switching the fixed cost of a lease to a variable cost we transform the economics of this vast, global market.
We are early stage but growth and traction to date has been impressive: we built the largest database of warehouses on the planet, identified a data-driven customer acquisition model, and signed up some of the biggest names in the industry on both the retail and the warehouse side of our marketplace. We won Wired Magazine's Startup Showcase 2017 award and have just closed a £1.5m funding round with some of the best investors in Europe and the US including Anthemis, Speedinvest, Seedcamp, Force Over Mass, Hambro Perks and CBRE.
We are looking for highly motivated, intellectually-curious and fun-loving people to join our rapidly expanding team.
TEAM AND TECHNOLOGY
We are gathering a world class team of technology and logistics experts to build this category-defining product. We hire for attitude and intelligence over experience.
We like to build things that solve problems, you will not be constrained by process - we work in small product teams that take a lean approach.
Our tech team look for skilled and collaborative developers who are motivated, excited about technology and keen to consistently raise the quality of our collective work by building elegant solutions through clean, efficient and testable code.
Our core stack is Ruby on Rails, Python, Heroku & Salesforce. We take a data-driven approach in everything we do. From collecting, cleaning and analysing billions of trade data points for understanding demand; to using earth orbit technology to identify warehouses. This position will ideally suit a developer with the creativity to push the envelope and the drive to excel.
