Job description

Senior Support Engineer

Monterrey, Mexico.

Work for the world’s smartest in-store media network

Intouch.com is a two-sided media network in which physical retailers use Intouch Live to enroll their in-store screens, and advertisers use Intouch Ads to buy ad-slots on these same screens.

The problem we’re solving

Digital retailers use data to study shoppers’ online behavior, predict their needs, and eliminate any friction points in the decision-making process. As a result, they provide shopping journeys that are very low on cognitive stress and therefore high on conversions/revenue. The problem is that digital-born retailers are moving to the offline world to increase their market share, and physical retailers are lacking the technology to compete with the complex data models digital ones have.

Our Vision

Our vision is to make physical spaces more intelligent and engaging than digital ones.

Our Mission

Our mission is to harness the power of data by instantly and intelligently delivering highly engaging personalized and profitable in-store experiences.

Our Values

  • Proactive: We don’t wait to be told what to do.

  • Rational: We execute on well-researched ideas.

  • Resilient: We simply don’t give up and are determined to succeed.

  • Diverse: Our differences make us stronger as a group and we love that.

  • Social: We work hard and take time to celebrate success.
