The Tech Team:

The tech team develops two main products: Hermes, to allow customers to order and track their transports, and Atlas, to allow Ovrsea to organize them.
Most of the effort is focused on Atlas: it is a revolutionary Transport Management System, which allows us to organize all types of transport worldwide. It is the backbone of OVRSEA, and the freight transport software of tomorrow.

We use modern technologies (Serverless, Typescript, React)
The tech team has the chance to develop an “internal” product: this allows us to iterate much faster (10 deployments per day), to test many things and to have some freedom
