## Job description

## ABOUT US:

At Gradion, we are the strategic partner for ambitious businesses, helping them achieve breakthrough growth through Digital Innovation and Deep Tech. With a global vision and an AI-first approach, we enable clients to reshape strategies, optimize systems, and adopt cutting-edge technologies to create sustainable value.

From AI and data to cybersecurity, robotics, and large-scale enterprise platforms, Gradion designs practical solutions that lay the foundation for the next generation of billion-dollar companies.

## OUR FACTS & FIGURES:

- 23+ years of expertise - Gradion builds digital platforms & deep-tech solutions.
- 3 continents: Asia, Europe and Africa.
- 300+ specialists across 7 countries Vietnam, Singapore, Thailand, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Egypt and Australia.
- 100+ enterprise clients, including several unicorns (e.g., Alaiko, HomeToGo, Roadsurfer).
- Vietnam’s Best IT Company - recognized by ITViec for 8 consecutive years, including 2 consecutive years of ranking #1 (2024 and 2025).
- ISO 27001.

The Short Version: We aren't looking for a traditional status-checker or a ticket-passer. We need a hybrid operator: someone with the engineering sharp-mindedness of a Project Manager, the customer-first vision of a Product Owner, and the infectious energy of a team multiplier. At Gradion, you will be the connective tissue between our global clients and our engineering teams. You will translate complex, ambitious business ideas into clear technical roadmaps, protect project health, and keep the team pumped to build great software.

What You'll Actually Do:

1. Own the Product Vision & Scope

- Shift from just executing tasks to understanding why we are building. You'll work directly with clients to refine their ideas into clear, high-value product requirements and actionable backlogs.

- Navigate both Fixed-Price outcomes (keeping scope tight, margins healthy, and change requests fair) and Dedicated Team models (setting clear roadmaps, capacity planning, and continuous value flow).

1. Drive Execution & Clear the Path

- Build realistic, transparent delivery plans using agile practices that fit the project—not rigid process for the sake of it.

- Call out risks early with solutions ready. You don't just send status reports; you make calls, push back when necessary, and guide clients to smart decisions.

1. Fire Up the Team & Culture

- Be the team's biggest advocate and energy driver. Create an environment where developers understand the bigger picture, feel supported, and take pride in what they ship.

- Shield the team from unnecessary chaos while maintaining total transparency with stakeholders.

1. Leverage AI to Work at 10x Speed

- Integrate AI tools into your everyday workflow—from drafting scope docs and summarizing client meetings to analyzing project risks—allowing you to spend less time on admin and more time solving high-value problems.

What Makes You Great for This Role:

- The Mindset: You treat every project like your own product. You care about user experience, client satisfaction, and engineering quality in equal measure.

- The Track Record: 3+ years navigating software delivery across different commercial models (Dedicated Teams & Fixed-Scope/Fixed-Price).

- Technical Fluency: A degree in CS/IT or equivalent hands-on exposure. You can speak developer language, understand architecture trade-offs, and earn the respect of engineering teams.

- Radical Clarity: Exceptional written and spoken English. You know how to communicate clearly with international clients across cultures without corporate fluff.

- High EQ & Grit: You handle difficult client conversations with grace, keep cool under pressure, and bring positivity to the team room every day.

- Smart Efficiency: You actively use AI tools to speed up routine work, but bring the human judgment needed to verify accuracy.

## About GRADION

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Gradion is a global digital and deep tech consultancy that builds and operates production systems for enterprise clients, processing over $10B in GMV and automating 20M+ tasks monthly.
- **Entity Type**: Private (bootstrapped, no external funding disclosed)
- **Headquarters**: Singapore (with major delivery hubs in Vietnam, Germany, Thailand, and Egypt)
- **Founded**: 2001 (originally as NFQ in Lithuania; rebranded to Gradion in 2023)
- **Founders**: Lars Jankowfsky

## Core Business
- **Primary industries**: Technology consulting, software engineering, AI & automation, travel platforms, commerce & payments, manufacturing & industrial automation
- **Target customers**: B2B, mid-market to large enterprise clients across travel, e-commerce, manufacturing, and financial services
- **Mission/purpose**: “Build what moves business” – delivering production-grade systems with deep domain expertise rather than generalist consulting

## Products & Services
- **Software Engineering**: Full-stack development, platform engineering, and embedded teams (from MVP validation to 150-person orgs running 50+ deployments/day)
- **AI & Automation**: Custom AI copilots, invoice processing (10,000 documents/day), CV screening (700/day), and workflow automation across production deployments
- **Technical Consulting & Recovery**: System assessment, architecture remediation, and turnaround projects (e.g., re-architected a Swiss credit platform in 8 weeks)
- **Manufacturing & Industrial Automation**: AGV fleet management, MES integration, industrial cybersecurity (IEC 62443), and co-founded ACE – Vietnam’s Automation Centre of Excellence
- **Travel Platforms**: 20 years of experience building and scaling travel metasearch, booking engines, and partner integrations (KAYAK, HomeToGo)
- **Commerce & Payments**: Payment gateway development, multi-platform merchant plugins, and DevOps for commercetools and Shopware

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed (private company)
- **Key Metrics**: $10B+ GMV processed annually; 20M+ tasks automated monthly; 320 employees; 97% client satisfaction across 1,000+ deployments; ISO 27001 certified
- **Notable Clients/Partners**: KAYAK (acquired by Priceline for $1.8B), HomeToGo (€1B IPO), Shopware, commercetools, Spryker, Schaeffler, and multiple financial institutions
- **Growth Signals**: Expansion into industrial automation (ACE in Vietnam), growing AI practice, 23-year track record with consistent headcount growth to 320 across 4 continents

## Competitive Advantages
- **Deep domain expertise** – engineers accumulate years of industry-specific knowledge (travel, commerce, manufacturing) rather than rotating across projects
- **Global delivery network** with unified standards – offices in Germany, Vietnam, Thailand, Egypt, and Singapore enable follow-the-sun workflows and near-shore options
- **Founder pedigree** – Lars Jankowfsky built and sold Swoodoo to KAYAK, then served as VP Engineering at KAYAK, giving Gradion insider understanding of scaling platforms
- **Delivery, not just advice** – the same team that diagnoses problems also builds the fix, reducing handoff friction and ensuring accountability

## Strategic Focus
- **AI & automation** as a core capability – AI proficiency is a hiring metric, and the company builds production automation systems (not just prototypes)
- **Manufacturing automation** – deepening presence in Southeast Asia through ACE and partnerships with industrial leaders like Schaeffler
- **Expanding in Europe & Asia** – leveraging the existing network to win larger enterprise engagements in DACH and Southeast Asia

## Why Work Here
- **Impact at scale** – engineers work on live platforms handling $10B+ GMV and 20M+ automated tasks, not internal tooling
- **Culture of ownership** – “thrives on feedback, treats mistakes as learning data”; technical decisions are treated as business decisions
- **AI-first environment** – daily use of tools like Cursor and Claude is expected; top employees build custom agents and automate workflows
- **Career growth** – solving increasingly complex problems leads to broader responsibility; alumni have moved to executive roles at client companies
- **Work model** – hybrid in Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, Can Tho); some roles are remote within country; async-friendly communication culture
- **Global team** – 320 people across 4 continents with a unified quality standard and shared accountability
