  • Have experience with collaborating with colleagues working remotely and across time zones 
  • Ideally have some experience with Python  
  • Are based in or willing to relocate to Austin, Texas, to work from our US office  

Personal skills – we expect that you:

  • Are detail-oriented and quality-conscious
  • Are self-driven and can work independently 
  • Can work effectively in a fast-paced, collaborate work environment 
  • Have an open and curious mindset, and are driven and eager to learn more 
  • Have great communication skills and feel confident in sharing your opinion and knowledge   

What you can expect from us:

  • A key role in designing and building IT solutions 
  • Close collaboration and instant feedback from stakeholders and end-users of your software solutions on everything from idea to execution  
  • An entrepreneurial spirit with a strong focus on continuous improvement

At InCommodities US, we embody a startup mindset. Our culture is deeply entrepreneurial, seeking people who thrive in dynamic environments with constant change and a strong focus on continuous improvements. 

We operate with a flat organizational structure, fostering autonomy, enabling fast and distributed decision-making processes and encouraging open communication. This approach ensures that innovative ideas can swiftly turn into impactful actions, driving our growth and success.  

We value responsibility, initiative and flexibility to exceed defined job descriptions. This ensures that everyone contributes meaningfully and takes ownership which is crucial for driving our growth and adaptability in these early phases of building our US presence. 

A people-first culture

We value a strong social community with frequent events outside the office. The work culture is relaxed; you don’t have to abide by a dress code or a strict hierarchy, so you won’t be frustrated with too many rules, policies, or bureaucratic processes. 

Our core values - honesty, transparency, and rethinking - are fundamental to how we engage with each other. Without honesty and transparency, we can't build trust, and trust among team members is the foundation of effective relationships and collaboration, ultimately for achieving better outcomes together. And as for rethinking, it’s deeply rooted in our DNA, pushing us to challenge status quo and continuously develop and innovate. 

In other words, InCommodities is not your average workplace – it’s awesome.  

An inclusive workplace

Our commitment to fostering an inclusive and innovative culture makes InCommodities an exciting place to grow your career. We are dedicated to creating a diverse workplace where everyone feels valued and respected.
