Senior Backend Engineer

Global supply chains move the world, and most of it is currently invisible. Hoopo is changing that by bringing Fleet Intelligence to the world's largest shipping and transportation companies through a unique combination of hardware, signal processing, and AI.
We're looking for a talented Senior Backend Engineer to join our innovative R&D team. In this role, you'll design and build scalable, high-performance systems that ingest and process data from millions of IoT devices operating across maritime, transportation, and aviation environments — transforming raw data into actionable intelligence that global logistics operators rely on every day. You'll have the opportunity to influence technical direction and translate complex product goals into clear technical roadmaps.


About Hoopo
Hoopo is a venture-backed startup headquartered in Herzliya, Israel. We digitize unpowered fleets (containers, chassis, trailers, airport ground equipment, and more) — using the world’s most power-efficient tracking devices coupled with signal processing that makes it work in the world's harshest and most challenging environments. On top of that, we are building an AI-powered fleet intelligence platform that turns raw location data into operational insights for some of the largest shipping and logistics companies in the world.
