Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam what3words Full time
what3words is revolutionising the way the world talks about location.

Street addresses aren't accurate enough to specify specific entrances, and they don't exist for parks, rural areas and many parts of the world.

This makes it hard to find places and causes problems and inefficiencies on a global scale.

That's why we created what3words.

We have divided the globe into 3 metre squares, and given each one a unique combination of three words:
a what3words address. It's an easy way to find and share precise locations.

what3words is being used in 193 countries, and our monthly active users continue to grow at an impressive pace.

Our tech is used by thousands of emergency services, delivery companies, eCommerce businesses, ride-hailing apps and NGOs, and is integrated into the navigation systems of millions of cars around the world.

This role is based in Vietnam from our centrally located Ho Chi Minh City office (District 1), where you'll be part of our growing HCMC team.
