Senior Backend Engineer

Gouna, Egypt

**Work with the world’s smartest in-store media network**

**The problem we’re solving**

Digital retailers use data to study shoppers’ online behavior, predict their needs, and eliminate any friction points in the decision-making process. As a result, they provide shopping journeys that are very low on cognitive stress and therefore high on conversions/revenue. The problem is that digital-born retailers are moving to the offline world to increase their market share, and physical retailers are lacking the technology to compete with the complex data models digital ones have.

**Our Vision**

Our vision is to make physical spaces more intelligent and engaging than digital ones.

**Our Mission**

Our mission is to harness the power of data by instantly and intelligently delivering highly engaging personalized and profitable in-store experiences.

**Our Values**
- Proactive: We don’t wait to be told what to do.
- Rationale: We execute on well-researched ideas.
- Resilient: We simply don’t give up and are determined to succeed.
- Diverse: Our differences make us stronger as a group and we love that.
- Social: We work hard and take time to celebrate success.
