We collect and vend telematics data from vehicles supporting a variety of use cases like fleet management.

Playing a key role in the Smart Delivery Technologies, we are looking for Software Development Engineer for developing solutions to access and utilizing existing array of sensors within our current fleet of delivery vehicles; and help us design the future fleet of delivery vehicles for the next decades to come.
