Aptos: Engaging customers—and our colleagues—differently.

• Aptos develops highly advanced solutions on the forefront of retailing for more than 1000 of the world’s most iconic brands. As a member of our professional or technical teams, you can too!
• Aptos is the recognized industry leader in delivering singular commerce via the Cloud to integrate and enrich customer engagement, merchandising, marketing and analytics operations across complex omni-channel enterprises. This enables us to provide the seamless experiences that today’s shoppers now expect, with the efficiency, deep insight and responsiveness that today’s retailers demand.
• At Aptos we engage our customers differently, not as vendors but as long-term retail partners, and we enable them to engage their customers differently with a deep understanding of who they are, why they buy and what they want.
• We also engage our colleagues differently in an exciting, collaborative environment that actively fosters a pioneering spirit, a strong sense of community, and absolute authenticity in everything we do.

 Here’s what will give you an edge…

• We know it when we see it. Passion is not saying how much you love what you do in your most excited voice. Passion is revealed in your truest self. It’s about what you’ve accomplished; how you want to grow; the ideas you have; your philosophies. It’s demonstrating through your words and your actions that you truly believe in what you do -- and where you work. That it matters to you. And that’s pretty cool.
• Resourcefulness and application. At Aptos, we have a pioneering spirit -- when we have questions, we find answers; when we’re faced with challenges, we find solutions. We turn to a variety of resources, including our own colleagues, our professional network, the Internet, articles and books -- whatever helps us get the job done. But it’s not just about using a variety of resources to gain knowledge -- it’s also about applying that knowledge to other areas of the job or business where it might make sense. 
• You don’t wait around for things to happen or for your manager to tell you what to do. You’re not only proactive about completing your own work, but when you sense the need to introduce a project that will benefit the team or the organization -- even if it’s outside your scope of work -- you put a proposal together, talk to the team about it, and own it. And that also goes back to having a pioneering spirit. 
• Quality orientation. You rarely make mistakes because you have good processes in place to ensure that every last detail is correct. There’s hardly an error that gets past you -- even when you’re under pressure to complete something in a very short timeframe.
