eeSea is aiming to disrupt the global container shipping industry 

eeSea is a start-up in the global transport and container shipping industry. Our vision is to become the central back-bone platform for the entire trillion-dollar industry; the Google Maps of container shipping.

This requires an eco-system approach, where we work with our industry partners through APIs, collection of big data volumes and deep analytics.

While the industry is big, complex and important, it is also fragmented and inefficient. For years it has resisted digital and technological innovation – now, however, the scramble to be the recognized industry platform is finally on.

The founder has extensive experience from this industry. The team currently consists of the founder, our CTO, our research & industry analysis team, and our business development team; the office is located at Symbion, in Østerbro, Copenhagen. We have recently closed our second funding round and are supported by senior industry figures.

LogTech (yep, it’s an acronym !) as a startup category is heating up; and Copenhagen – with our maritime heritage and entrepreneurial eco-system – is uniquely placed to become the global capital for digital maritime innovation.
 

Job Description – you will help us build a stellar SaaS platform

The current v1 platform works, but needs a thorough revamp to be able to scale and do what we want it to.

Moreover, the company is now at a stage, commercially and product-wise, where we are starting to align our development road map with our immediate requirements as well as the strategic vision.

The position therefore handles a broad range of jobs, from conceiving and building new solutions, through optimization of current features and building of partner integrations to working with our commercial team to optimize the customers’ journey. The ambition is a kick-ass SaaS platform, where code, product and client usage are flawlessly aligned.

The position works closely with the CTO and the technical team. Our primary technologies are PHP7, Laravel, Redis, Git and various other open source tools.

We hope to challenge you every day, and expect you to learn fast. You’ll be given latitude to define your own position and is expected to take ownership and work independently.

As a person you:

  • enjoy, and even look for, the challenge of building and growing a platform, instead of just keeping a static application running
  • have significant hands-on coding experience with one or several stacks, even if you may not consider yourself a bleeding edge engineer
  • are proactive, self-driven, and able to thrive in a fast-moving start-up environment
  • take ownership; when a task or an area of responsibility resides with you, we trust it will be driven to completion, on time, and to high quality
  • think strategically, but with a bias towards getting stuff done without over-thinking it
  • are structured, focused, and able to keep to task lists and timelines
  • communicate fluently and effectively in English, internally and with external partners. In fact, speaking Danish is not a requirement in this job
  • do not need to have transport industry experience, but are willing to acquire professional understanding and lingo
  • are committed to the job and the growth opportunity in a startup
  • enjoy working as part of a team, with the smiles, grudges, chaos, frustrations, laughter, and good people that come along with the experience
  • may have experience from a similar industry (big, heavy, and disrupted), like travel – this it, however, not a requirement

What do you get out of it?

Do you dread the heavy corporate structure and boring work routines of large companies? We are a budding startup company, so expect none of that. We offer you an exciting and growing position within a small company, where routines do not exist and where we are flexible and passionate about what we do.

We believe in and commit to working closely with and coaching our new team members, so you will need to learn and teach at the same time. Passion is non-negotiable; you provide energy and drive, and love what you do.

The Full-Stack Developer position is full-time and offered a market-aligned salary, based on experience and fit.

Working hours are flexible, required tools are provided, working from off-site is allowed, within reason. During the application process you may be asked to take a personality assessment and cognitive test.

We have ambitious dreams to change the container shipping industry fundamentally, but also immediate and realistic targets to become profitable and grow our company.

Working at
eeSea

Global container shipping carries 95% of the world’s manufactured goods. To many, the Ever Given stuck across the Suez Canal was a first peek at the interconnectedness of global supply chains; subsequently Covid put the spotlight firmly on timely goods delivery (or lack of same…) and transport costs; and most recently the industry is started to grapple with its role as a major emitter of greenhouse gasses. Headquartered in Copenhagen, eeSea is a well-established maritime supply chain intelligence scale-up, offering unbiased visibility and predictive analysis. Our vision is to become the central scheduling platform for the entire trillion-dollar industry.
