Software Engineer (web Ui)

LIFELENZ is a rapidly growing team of 80+ mathematicians, engineers, designers, computer scientists, strategists and client success experts based in the U.S., Canada,  Australia, UK, building a machine learning-based, advanced analytics workforce and human capital management platform. Our platform solves challenges related to onboarding, sales & labour forecasting, scheduling & time clock/keeping, insights & reporting and labour law compliance.  It uses machine learning to automatically self-tune and self-manage models to a particular store with hyper-local attributes.  The technology approach and analytic methodologies used enable the distribution across large-scale centralized ownership and highly fragmented franchised ownership companies.
