Job description

Origina is a rapidly growing global challenger technology company on a mission to stop unnecessary technology change by helping enterprises to extend, protect and enhance their software assets. We believe organisations should be free to run their systems for as long as they choose - without being pushed into costly, unwanted upgrades that don't align with their strategy, so we step in to provide an alternative from the original vendor.

We're scaling fast, with a clear path to €0.5 billion in the next five years, and expanding our presence across Europe, the US, and Australia.
