Software Engineer (Frontend)

Opportunity

Maersk is set to be the global integrated logistics carrier of choice. A large part of that responsibility comes to the supply chain management platform. Although supply chain is traditionally an asset heavy business; a new wave of digital innovation has meant that assets alone are no longer differentiators.

· Build new and enhance existing supply chain management capabilities

· Simplify our portfolio technology stack by untangling dependencies

· Evolving architecture by removing excessive component responsibilities

· Bake in stability & resilience features

· Gracefully retire legacy
