About Opply
Currently, 25 million consumer goods brands worldwide with $4 Trillion of revenue do not have knowledge or power to create effective supply chains. Opply is revolutionising the way these brands find, communicate with, and order from suppliers by building the world's first personalised end-to-end supply platform for them. We focus on the most innovative brands and suppliers, aiming to become the leading platform and data authority in consumer goods innovation.
Opply is backed by some of the best-known venture capitalists in the world and is one of the fastest-growing startups in the UK - and is now looking for individuals who are eager to embark on this exciting journey with us!
Who We Are
We’re a close-knit team of 20, working across four time zones (but we do have an office in London), and we meet up 2-3 times a year to work, ideate and hang out (previously we had company offsites in Valencia, Prague, Split and the North of Finland!).
We’re one of the fastest growing startups in London. Now we need extraordinary minds with a strong ownership mindset who want to join us on our mission!
What You'll Be Doing
You’ll be joining Opply at an exciting stage of growth, where your work will directly contribute to our ambitious journey forward. As a member of our skilled tech team, which spans expertise in Web Applications, Quality Assurance, DevOps and Data Science, you'll collaborate within multidisciplinary squads to tackle impactful projects. You will act as the main person responsible for data across the whole business and together with our CTO, our Head of Engineering, our Product Delivery Manager and our Junior Data Scientist you will be responsible for defining and executing a Data Roadmap.
