ABOUT BAGBOARD

Bagboard is looking to change how advertising works, from the ground up. We empower consumers to be an active part of advertising and be rewarded for their engagement. At the same time, were giving brands a platform to engage in meaningful interactions with their audiences. We want to turn advertising into a two-way conversation and not a one-way broadcast.

At the heart of our platform is a consumer driven digital experience that actively encourages and rewards consumers to engage with our platform. The strength of our business model is that it incentivises consumers, advertisers and our retailer distribution network to not just personally gain, but also collaborate on utilising the value of our platform to solve wider social, environmental and economic problems facing us all. Advertising in the hands of the consumer.

• Machine learning supply chain optimisation solutions

To help oversee these efforts, Bagboard is looking for an exceptional engineer to join the team. Bagboards technical business is broken into three teams:
