The answer was clear: it's still a human-first, spreadsheet-heavy industry, full of repetitive processes and broken system interoperability.With the rise of AI agents, we now have the tools to rethink that from the ground up. Zauber builds autonomous agents for the global logistics industry, AI workers that handle operational tasks, talk to systems and humans alike, and get better every day.We're already live with global logistics leaders in Europe and AsiaBacked by one of Europe's top early-stage fundsGrowing fast and hiring exceptional engineers to join earlyNow, we're hiring a Founding Designer to help craft the agent-native interfaces powering the future of global logistics.What You'll DoThis is a high-ownership role.
