An interesting opportunity here to ask a leader some questions from a company I've been following on LinkedIn for a while! Appreciate your willingness to share, James.
I have been exploring global career options in England as a Canadian citizen. Recently I learned that Ocado is indeed global with a development centre here in Toronto. I am wondering how the different development centres interact, if at all. Are there projects and technologies developed by teams with members across the globe, or are the teams more localized and focused on a particular area's fulfillments? Perhaps both? If it is the former, how are solutions requiring hardware handled?
Also I am interested in how open Ocado is on employees transferring to other global development centres. I read on LinkedIn and BBC that certain staff may have the option to work abroad remotely temporarily which seems to be slightly related. What are your thoughts?
Would be great to build a relationship at Ocado and be able to ask more than would be fair for me to do here. Looking forward to reading the other answers here as well. Thanks!
