- A Bachelor’s degree or higher in interaction design, human-computer interaction, cognitive science, or a related field is preferred.

**About Waymap**

We are a for-profit, social impact start-up. The idea for our business came out of the Royal Society for Blind Children in London.

The young blind children whom the charity served tasked the CEO (Dr Tom Pey, also Waymap Founder and CEO) with building a cell phone navigation app that was accurate enough to even help them get around.

Waymap, therefore, has built a suite of location algorithms which are much more accurate than GNSS (GPS) and even work indoor.

We want to connect cities like never before - outdoor, indoor and even deep underground.

**Benefits**:

- Company pension
- Employee stock ownership plan
- Employee stock purchase plan

Schedule:

- Monday to Friday
