Software engineer; SaaS scale-up in maritime logistics

Software engineer (SaaS scale-up in maritime logistics)

Why this role matters
Our client is building machine learning technology that helps shipping companies cut fuel consumption and emissions at scale, solving one of the world’s most urgent climate challenges. Their platform is used directly by customers, and can also be easily embedded in partner products. By 2029, they aim to power 10,000 vessels – the equivalent of removing every single car from the roads in Belgium.

Your code will directly move that needle.

You’ll be joining a young, smart, and ambitious team that’s willing to go the extra mile. If you want impact, autonomy, and deep ownership, this could be a fit.
