About Tigris
Logistics moves around 80% of the products people use every day, yet the systems behind it have not kept pace with the realities of modern operations: more connected, more time-sensitive, and far less forgiving.
Operational data still arrives through emails, PDFs, spreadsheets, and legacy systems. It is often late, inconsistent, and missing the context teams need to act with confidence. People bridge the gaps manually, decisions are made with incomplete information, and issues can escalate before they are visible.
Tigris is building the foundation for logistics systems that are simpler, more connected, and easier to adapt without replacing the people who run them.
Who Tigris needs
Tigris is growing around real customer demand. With active deployments, pilots in progress, and new commercial opportunities emerging, the company is hiring engineers and product builders who can bring modern data tools, strong technical judgment, and thoughtful product design to one of the world's most operationally complex industries.
Working at Tigris
Tigris moves fast. The work can be ambiguous, demanding, and quick to change. What matters is the ability to stay focused, take ownership, and help build systems that perform reliably in real operations.
The hiring process is designed to be open on both sides. Candidates should leave with a clear understanding of what it is like to work at Tigris, and the same clarity is expected in return.
Job titles describe the main focus of a role, not every task it may involve. Nobody is expected to be an expert in everything. What matters is the willingness to learn quickly, step in where needed, and approach the work with seriousness, curiosity, and care.
Tigris may be right for you if…
You want to build, not just operate.
You want to work on systems that shape how real cargo moves across oceans, ports, and highways.
You want your work to matter beyond the screen: supporting the movement of goods that people and businesses rely on every day.
Culture & Values
Tigris is built for people who value trust, clarity, and depth. The team works openly, avoids unnecessary politics and performance, and stays focused on delivering systems that hold up in real operations.

Why Tigris
You will work alongside engineers, operators, and commercial people who approach the problem together. Engineers spend time learning how logistics actually works. Commercial teams spend time understanding the product and the technology behind it.
Tigris works best when people are curious beyond their own role. The team needs people who want to understand the business, the users, the product, and the systems behind it.
Tigris uses the right technology for the problem, wherever it comes from. Solving operational problems at this scale requires foundations that are modern, deliberate, and built to evolve.
Strong ideas are welcome from the beginning. If there is a better way to build something, make the case.
Global logistics carries around 80% of the goods people use every day. As trade and manufacturing become more connected, the systems behind logistics need to become clearer, faster, and more reliable.
At Tigris, your work connects directly to real-world operations: cargo moving across oceans, ports, warehouses, and roads.
Tigris is building in a complex industry, and nobody arrives knowing everything. The work offers constant exposure to new problems across logistics, data, product, and operations. People are expected to learn quickly, ask good questions, and build judgment through real work.
Compensation & Benefits
Tigris provides private health insurance, including dental and optical support, with cover available for eligible dependants. Coverage details vary by policy and location.
Team members receive 25 days of annual leave, plus public holidays, with flexibility to take time when needed.
Tigris offers enhanced parental leave to support new parents.
You will receive the equipment you need to do your best work.

Interview Process
The hiring process is designed to be straightforward and transparent from the beginning. The goal is to move from CV review to a hiring decision within two weeks.
What to expect
Whether your CV reaches Tigris through a recruiter or directly, the aim is to give you a clear go/no-go decision within two days.
What matters most is a clear account of what you have actually done. Your CV does not need to be over-polished or rewritten to match the language on the job description. A straightforward summary of your real work is more useful than a generic or heavily machine-drafted résumé.
You do not need to tailor your CV extensively for Tigris. Show what you have built, shipped, improved, led, or learned. If your experience is broadly aligned with what the role needs, you will be invited to interview.
If your background is not aligned with the role, Tigris will let you know quickly so both sides can save time.
This is a 30-minute video call with a member of the Talent Team.
The conversation will cover the specific requirements of the role and give you a clearer sense of the team, the problems you may work on, and where the company is heading. It is also a chance for you to ask questions and decide whether Tigris feels like the right environment for you.
Tip: think about the impact you have had in previous roles and be ready to share clear, evidence-based examples.
This is a 75-minute session with two members of the engineering team.
At the start of the interview, they will introduce a system or technical problem, then work through it with you. Be ready to go into technical depth and explain your decisions. Throughout the session, think about scalability, reliability, and availability.
The team is interested in how you reason through problems, make trade-offs, and communicate your thinking. The goal is not simply to arrive at the “right” answer.
Everyone who joins Tigris meets with the CEO before a final decision is made.
This is a 30 to 60-minute conversation about your career, your motivations, and how you approach your work. It is also a chance to ask any remaining questions about the company, the role, or what it is like to work here.
Interview Tips
Whether you are highly experienced or early in your career, interviews can be both exciting and uncertain. These tips are here to help you prepare and make the most of the process.
A little preparation goes a long way. Read through the Tigris website and LinkedIn page to understand what the company does, the problems it works on, and the values that shape how the team operates.
Logistics can be complex, and so can Tigris. Spending time with the material before your interviews will help you decide whether this is a problem space you want to work on seriously.
Interviews are short, so clear examples help us understand how you think, work, and make decisions. We recommend using the STARR framework when answering experience-based questions:
The event, project, or challenge you faced
Your responsibility or role in that situation
The steps you took
The outcome of your actions
What you learned from the experience
Interviews are not only about Tigris assessing you. They are also your opportunity to assess Tigris.
Ask the questions that matter to you, including the difficult ones. The goal is for you to leave each stage with a clearer sense of the role, the team, the company, and whether Tigris is the right place for you.
