Backend Software Engineer (Python & AWS & Bonus: geospatial data)

The Way We Navigate Today Is Broken

Remember getting lost while trying to find a friend's apartment? Couriers face this maze every day: zero parking, hidden entrances, and confusing building complexes. It's a tremendous challenge for last mile delivery that's gone unaddressed—until now.
