We're building a modern technology platform that applies data engineering and AI to a problem with real global consequence: proving trust and transparency in supply chains. Our work helps protect people from exploitation, gives brands and producers confidence in what they sell, and supports more sustainable choices for the planet.
From a tech perspective, this is greenfield - designing scalable, cloud-native systems and AI-driven products that turn complex data into evidence customers can stand behind. You'll be working on hard, meaningful problems, with real ownership, close collaboration with product and leadership, and the opportunity to shape both the technology and the impact it delivers as we scale.
We're a global team across London, Auckland, Singapore, and Washington D.C.

You'll own the Azure cloud platform that hosts all of our mission-critical software and services — designing, automating, and securing it while enabling the engineering teams around you to move fast and ship with confidence.
