Sr Software Engineer

Our company provides the ultimate strategic business planning experience, helping planners in Finance, Supply Chain and Sales Operations reinvent how they model their operations and become more agile in running their business. Unlike spreadsheets that become unruly, slow and error prone with wired-together worksheets and thousands of cryptic formulas, Our models scale out quickly, with streamlined, user-defined structure, automatic relationships and natural language formulas. Using our SaaS platform, customers spend far less time managing their models and more time investigating alternative scenarios and executing on their forecasts.

We are a small and hungry startup being incubated inside of an established and well-run international organization.We have all of the fun of creating something completely new with the benefits of collaboration and mentorship from professionals in all parts of the extended business. Our parent company is a successful Life Sciences company. Together, we accelerate the discovery, development and delivery of solutions that safeguard and improve human health.
