Senior Software Engineer (Full Stack), Fleet Management

About Advertima Vision

Advertima is building the missing infrastructure that brings the power of digital advertising to the physical world.

Today, most advertising inside physical retail stores still operates like the internet did twenty years ago: static screens, no audience intelligence, and almost no measurable performance. Meanwhile, online advertising evolved into a trillion-dollar ecosystem powered by real-time data, automation, and programmatic infrastructure.

We are changing that.

Advertima has built the technology that transforms physical retail environments into real-time, data-driven media channels. Using computer vision, edge computing, and distributed AI systems, we translate physical shoppers into anonymized digital audiences that can be measured, targeted, and activated in real time.

This is not a theoretical vision or an incremental improvement. It is the creation of a completely new global technology standard.

Global retail leaders such as Walmart, Carrefour, FairPrice, SPAR, and EDEKA are deploying our technology across thousands of stores. Together, we are defining the global standard for In-store Retail Media.

The technical challenge behind this is massive. Our platform operates across large fleets of edge AI devices deployed globally, processes real-world sensor data in real time, and integrates with complex cloud infrastructure and the global adtech ecosystem. Managing, provisioning, and maintaining the operational health of this expanding fleet is critical to our global scale.

At the same time, everything we build follows a strict privacy-by-design philosophy. Our systems operate without processing and storing personal data or images, while still enabling the audience intelligence required for real-time performance media. This approach, rooted in Switzerland’s strong privacy culture, has become one of the key reasons global retailers trust Advertima to power their next-generation Retail Media infrastructure.

Solving this combination of distributed systems, edge computing, AI inference, privacy-preserving data processing, and global-scale reliability is a hard engineering problem. To tackle this challenge, we are looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer (Full Stack) specializing in Fleet Management to join our core engineering team in Zurich.

If you enjoy working on complex real-world systems, pushing the boundaries of edge and cloud infrastructure, and building mission-critical IoT fleet tools, Advertima offers a rare opportunity.
