GAC Group operates a traditional enterprise stack (.NET, SQL Server, Azure) across a sprawling logistics footprint — 7,500+ employees in 300 offices globally. The hiring surge is driven by logistics and sales roles, not engineering; the company is scaling operations (procurement, tender analysis, branch coordination) rather than building new tech. Pain points cluster around compliance, cost control (port storage, tanker operations), and internal control — the hallmarks of a maturing logistics operator automating workflows and tightening financial discipline.
GAC Group is a private logistics and shipping services company founded in 1956, headquartered in Dubai. With over 7,500 employees across 300 offices in more than 50 countries, the company provides shipping, logistics, and marine services to mid-market and enterprise customers. Operations span tender pricing and procurement strategy, branch coordination, tanker offshore optimization, and shore excursion management. The tech footprint is enterprise Windows/.NET (C#, WinForms, ASP.NET Core on Azure), reflecting a backend-heavy, line-of-business application architecture rather than external product development.
GAC uses Microsoft Office, C#, .NET Core/.NET Framework, SQL Server, Azure (App Service, Kubernetes, SQL), and test automation tools (Selenium, JMeter, Postman). Development patterns include ASP.NET MVC/Core, WinForms, and WCF—legacy enterprise architecture.
Engineering roles represent 5% of active hiring (4 positions). The focus is logistics (30%), sales (24%), and ops (21%), with accelerating velocity across all departments.
