About Us

Think about literally anything in your house. Your shirt. Your phone. That random IKEA wrench thingamabob you still haven’t thrown away. Odds are, it all came from somewhere else. Freight is the invisible magic trick that makes the global economy work. And we’re the ones helping it work a little bit faster, smarter, and cheaper.

Freightos (Nasdaq: CRGO) is the global booking and payment platform for the trillion-dollar freight industry. Hundreds of airlines and ocean liners, thousands of freight companies, and over ten thousand importers and exporters use our platform to move goods around the world faster and more efficiently. This matters. Efficient freight ultimately makes things cost a little bit less when you buy them in the store.

We’ve been on a rocketship (freight ship?) of double-digit growth for years, and we’re nowhere near done.

Changing global trade starts with shipping great code. Boxes don’t move before those bytes move.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Mid-Level Full Stack Engineer who gets excited by solving complex problems and building systems that directly impact millions - make that billions - of dollars in global trade.

Our platform manages over two billion pricing points, hundreds of thousands of quotes, and millions of location codes. This is not just UI polish or backend plumbing - it’s building reliable, scalable systems end-to-end.

You’ll work across frontend and backend layers while leveraging AI-powered development workflows - especially vibe coding - to move fast, iterate intelligently, and ship high-quality features. Speed matters, but reliability matters more. That’s why you’ll back everything up with strong automated testing and clean engineering practices.

Come ready for a challenge - and don’t be fooled by container ships; this is rocket-science technology.

What You’ll Do

• Design and build end-to-end features across frontend and backend services.
• Develop modern, scalable UI/UX features using best practices and clean architecture.
• Build robust backend APIs and services that power high-scale, high-availability systems.
• Use AI-assisted development (vibe coding) to accelerate feature delivery and reduce iteration cycles.
• Validate AI-generated and AI-assisted code with comprehensive automated tests (unit, integration, and end-to-end).
• Contribute throughout the development and deployment lifecycle across the R&D organization.
• Collaborate with product managers, designers, backend, and DevOps teams to deliver business-critical capabilities.
• Troubleshoot and solve complex cross-stack issues in a large-scale codebase.
• Continuously improve development workflows, introducing mechanisms and best practices to prevent recurring issues.
• Help evolve AI-driven engineering standards within the team.

Requirements

• 3–5 years of experience as a Full Stack or Software Engineer.
• Strong frontend development experience with JavaScript and React
• Solid backend experience (preferably Python,Java or similar object-oriented language).
• Strong computer science fundamentals: object-oriented design, data structures, problem solving, and complexity analysis.
• Hands-on experience using AI coding tools and vibe coding workflows to build real features.
• Strong understanding of testing strategies and automation for both frontend and backend.
• Experience working with RESTful APIs and microservices architecture.
• Team player with a can-do attitude and strong ownership mindset.
• Excellent communication, self-organization, and time management skills.
• Fluent in English (reading, writing, and speaking).

Preferred Qualifications

• B.Sc. in Computer Science or equivalent.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS/GCP) and modern infrastructure.
• Familiarity with SQL and/or NoSQL databases.
• Experience with React-Redux or other advanced state management solutions.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and containerized environments.
• Familiarity with integrating AI capabilities into product features (LLMs, automation flows, internal tooling).

What Makes You Stand Out

• You think in systems, not just components.
• You use AI to enhance productivity - not replace engineering judgment.
• You understand that AI-generated code must be production-ready, observable, and fully tested.
• You balance speed with discipline.
• You enjoy working across the stack and taking ownership of features end-to-end.
