About Ume IntelligenceUme Intelligence is a marketing science company solving complex commercial problems for multi-location restaurant brands. We build modern analytics and automation infrastructure, paired with hands-on digital operations that turn operational data into measurable revenue. We operate as a lean, high-leverage team with no walls between engineering and operations. We look for marketers who run toward technology, automation, and data models rather than away from them—and who evaluate success by real business impact (margin, demand, and net revenue) rather than vanity metrics or campaigns launched.
