Greywing is a digital platform that tracks ships and optimises everything that gets on or off.

We connect hundreds of public and private data sources - like satellite tracking, crew and fuel reports, GDS, and port restrictions - to provide immediately actionable intelligence on vessel operations.

Our efforts are currently focused on making crew changes cheaper and faster, and in making sure the thousands of men and women who keep our economies functional get home safely to their loved ones.

We work with two of the largest ship operators globally to digitize their operations. They give us the real life experience to automate their businesses and our vision is to deploy the same techniques to the long tail, creating a single operational platform for shipping.

Work directly with the CEO to build a better UI for maritime operations from scratch.

You will have the opportunity to design and build the interface primitives that lay the foundation for maritime software for the next ten years. This is the right job if you like building things that have never existed before, are excited by new challenges and understand that products live and die on the user experience.

As a Full Stack Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining high-performance web applications that integrate LLM capabilities.

You will work with a modern stack, primarily using TypeScript with Node.js and Next.js, as well as some React applications.

Your expertise will be crucial in ensuring our applications are scalable, efficient, and deliver exceptional user experiences.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain robust and scalable full stack applications using TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js, and React.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define, design, and ship new features.
• Integrate LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic) into applications, ensuring optimal performance and user experience particularly with the streaming nature of LLM outputs.
• Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code.
• Troubleshoot and debug issues across the full stack.
• Mentor junior engineers and provide technical guidance and code reviews.

Qualifications:

• 1+ years of experience as an Engineer, with a focus on TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js, and React.
  • Note on experience: THis role is focused on building LLM applications on the cutting edge of what is possible. Whilst the experience levels are low, we expect a high level of self-directed engagement and experimentation with application ideation & development leveraging LLMs.
• Proven experience working with LLMs and integrating them into web applications.
• Strong understanding of web development principles and best practices.
• Proficiency with version control systems (e.g., Git).
• Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.
• Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., Azure) is a plus.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines including Github Actions is a plus.

What next steps look like:

If successful, you will help decide the future of Greywing, as well as lay the roadmap for all future development of the interface. You will be aided in making key decisions about the stack, development process and guiding principles.

Some of the things we've done so far:

• Build an easy to use routing engine for vessels
• Design intelligence software to compress hundreds of points of information (flights, agencies, fuel, restrictions) into quick decisions.

For an illustrative example, check out https://grey-wing.com.

Your core focus will be the deployment, integration and iteration of our LLM Maritime Copilot “Proteus” into Customers’ 3rd Party applications.

You will also be required to assist with the ongoing iteration and development of crew planning software.

Who are we?

Greywing is a maritime intelligence tool that enables ship managers to conduct operations and save thousands of dollars by providing actionable insight into the decisions they make. Simply put, we process hundreds of thousands of points of information about a vessel to tell them where it should go and what it should do.

We are backed by the people at Y Combinator, Instacart and Flexport. We work with the world's largest ship managers and operators to make the global shipping network more efficient while protecting the people who make sure our world runs smoothly.

In the past year, we've introduced the first maritime focused co-pilot into the maritme industry and we are focused on scaling that platform to be the dominant co-pilot focus on maritime applications.

For the insatiably curious, you may find more information on our blog or our Technical Cofounders Writing.

Why we need you

Maritime software is still in its infancy. Do a quick Google and you'll see that interfaces look like they were designed on FrontPage in 2008 - and this is the state across the ecosystem. Decisions that govern millions of dollars in cargo and hundreds of thousands of tons of iron and steel are made through excel sheets, email, and pencil and paper. We have a rare opportunity to lay down how maritime will interact digitally for the next decade, if we get this right.

Our Stack

Backend: NodeJS, Express, Postgres, Redis

Frontend: NextJS, React

Details

Full time role, fully remote if outside Singapore. If in Singapore we work 2 days a week in person the rest is remote.

For the right candidate, after passing a Probationary period, we will sponsor a work visa in Singapore.

How to apply

If you're interested, please reach out to jointheteam @ grey-wing.com with a short Loom video answering the following questions (or any you'd like):

1. What should we know about you? Background, capabilities, what you think your strengths are.
2. What interests you about us?
3. Tell us a little about the most memorable project you've worked on.
   1. What were the hardest parts?
   2. What were the best moments?
   3. Walk us through what you have built on the Loom - we’d love to see it!
4. Have you done any work with LLM’s? Whether you have or not let us know how you think about them.

Greywing currently has a state-of-the-art vessel routing tool, as well as the industry's first structured data collection tools for state actor and vessel data - both public and private.

Our first priority is human-augmentation, by using intelligent path-finding algorithms to navigate this data to provide actionable intelligence to vessel operators.
