We hire in two tracks — procurement professionals who want to work alongside AI, and AI engineers who want to work on hard domain problems. Both are essential. Neither is secondary.

Who we'relooking for right now.
Procurement knowledge is the foundation of everything we do. We also need a small number of exceptional AI/ML engineers who can build the intelligence layer that makes Apollo smarter every day. Both tracks are critical — and both are hard to do well.

Life at SCMMAX
Built by people whoknow what they're doing.
Procurement knowledge is non-negotiable here — even on the engineering side. Our AI team works directly with procurement professionals who have managed real spend. That close collaboration is what makes Apollo's outputs actually useful, not just technically impressive.
🎯
Domain first, alwaysEvery technical decision gets pressure-tested against real procurement scenarios. If a model output wouldn't make sense to an experienced CPO, it's not good enough.
📊
Outcomes over activityWe measure value created, not hours logged. Every customer engagement has a clear savings target — and a monthly report to prove it.
🔧
Engineering and domain work togetherOur FDEs send field observations directly to our AI team. There is no wall between customer insight and product development.
🌏
Enterprise scaleWe operate across multiple continents and serve enterprise businesses managing many billions in direct spend. The conversations are strategic and the stakes are real.
Four profiles that thrive hereWe don't hire for roles — we hire for capability and curiosity. These are the people who do exceptional work at SCMMAX.
