Description du poste

Help us digitalize international freight transportation!

OVRSEA is a next-generation, multimodal freight forwarder dedicated to simplifying and optimizing international freight management through technology. We coordinate shipments for over 700 companies across 60 countries, offering clients a unique platform that enables teams to manage shipments easily and transparently. With continued growth and profitability in 2025, we are expanding and hiring internationally! Are you ready to join us on this exciting adventure?

⭐️ Our culture

One of OVRSEA's greatest strengths is its ability to create a fulfilling environment where team members feel supported and at ease. Our culture is guided by five core values:

- Learn Together: Many team members have learned to code at Ovrsea. We cultivate a teaching culture so everyone can continue learning, regardless of experience level.

- Act with Care: We aim to create a supportive environment where people feel comfortable and can grow continuously.

- Strive for Excellence: We place high value on clean code and development best practices.

- Reflect and Challenge: We constantly seek ways to improve our code, infrastructure, and product vision.

- Build Trust: We’re all committed to doing things the right way.

Above all, we aim to recruit individuals who are aligned with these values and are dedicated to living them every day.

💻 The Tech team

The tech team is at the forefront of developing two pivotal products:

🌍 Atlas: a groundbreaking Transport Management System designed exclusively for internal use, revolutionizing how we organize shipments across the globe and streamline various tasks. Being an internal tool, it offers us the flexibility to rapidly iterate, allowing for extensive testing and immediate visibility of our work's impact. This agile framework not only accelerates our operational efficiency but also enhances our ability to respond to shipping demands with precision and speed.

🔗 OneChain: a new Transport Management System for our customers. Most companies manage their shipments using Excel and paperwork, causing mental load and time loss that can be optimized with this SaaS. The market is vast, and the project has already secured several clients within a few months.

🧑🤝🧑 Our team's organization consists of two specialized squads, each comprising 3 to 4 skilled Software Engineers and a dedicated Product Manager. These squads are each aligned with a distinct business objective, such as task automation, sales activation and the development of OneChain among others.

📚 Our Software Engineering approach is deeply influenced by the methodologies outlined in Accelerate. We implement a robust and efficient workflow, enabling more than 20 daily deployments for instance. This strategy significantly shortens our feedback loop. Moreover, we’re working very closely with our end-users, both operations teams and clients, leading to tangible and impactful outcomes.
