The Product Team at Bosta takes many forms and involves many facets.

As a logistics company, we direct a fleet of drivers around major cities across Egypt using an internal digitized experience on the admin web and courier mobile app. As a partner to e-commerce businesses, who see us as a way to unlock access to new customers and thus fasten the deliveries of their orders, we craft plugins and APIs to help them do everything through it. Finally, we’re a home for numerous internal teams building internally facing tools for Care, finance, and others, to keep the business operations running effectively.
Life as a Product Designer means working hand in hand with the Product Manager on any or all of these areas, in order to deliver value to the customers, couriers, and business.
