Join our dynamic team, located in six countries (Switzerland, Serbia, Vietnam, France, Germany, and India), where creativity thrives. Together, we tackle challenges, celebrate successes, and keep learning and growing.

Eligibility: This position is open to Vietnamese citizens only.

Your Mission:

• Work with our engineers and leverage your own knowledge to understand the challenges they face and how to improve their experience.
