Founding Software Engineer (m/w/d)

The Way We Navigate Today Is Broken

Remember getting lost while trying to find a friend's apartment? Couriers face this maze every day: zero parking, hidden entrances, and confusing building complexes. It's a huge challenge for last-mile delivery that's gone unaddressed—until now.

truemetrics solves this problem: We offer exact locations for entrances and parking positions to speed up deliveries by analyzing sensor data from drivers' smartphones.
