Job Description

We are looking for Fullstack developers in our core team to help build and
scale our AI product and create an impact for millions of buisinesses in
London and Europr in AdTech.

**About us:** pubX is an agile, VC-backed start-up building artificial
intelligence and automation technology that will revolutionise the digital
publishing industry.

We work on greenfield projects to help digital publishers unlock greater
revenues, improve operations and understand data to help ensure their
existence into the future. Digital publishers are our customers but we are
purely a technology company, developing scalable solutions to enable digital
publishers to compete in an ecosystem that is increasingly geared towards
Advertisers.

We believe that publishers are a cornerstone of society and democracy and that
if Advertising Technology trends continue, publishers will be lost to the
world, along with truth, objectivity, and knowledge. They will likely be
replaced by walled-garden, echo-chambers that fuel and foster hate.

Culturally we operate with intelligence, respect, and curiosity, relentlessly
pursuing ideas to improve our offering and execute our mission.

We are looking for a Fullstack Developer to help us build the future for
digital publishing.
