In recent years, because of the emergence of fish bubble nets, blue-collar workers have a new way to find jobs. Follow the contractor on the construction site, on the production line, or under the overpass, on the side of the road to find short-term workers, browse and click in the Yupao.com APP, you can find opportunities according to the type of work you are good at. This app, which is based on the slogan of "real boss, good worker", was created by Yubo Technology, which was established in 2017.
Since its establishment, Yubo Technology has been working with Alibaba Cloud to overcome the technical challenges of blue-collar recruitment, bringing a safe, stable and efficient experience to blue-collar workers and recruiters. Entering the era of AI large models, Yubo Technology deeply uses cloud + AI technology to comprehensively enhance its competitiveness, and jointly promotes the innovation and reform of the blue-collar recruitment track with Alibaba Cloud.
In this issue of "Seeing New Power" column, we have a dialogue with Zhou Feng, founder and chairman of Yubo Technology, who takes us on an innovative journey in the field of blue-collar recruitment.
When 380 million workers go to the app to find a job
The starting point of Yubao Technology is full of market imagination and team mission. According to third-party data, Yubo Technology, which has strong assistance, has topped the TOP1 in the blue-collar recruitment industry in just a few years, ranking fourth in the recruitment APP of the whole industry.
According to the estimation of Yubao Technology, there are about 420 million blue-collar workers in the country, with a large group size and high job change frequency, and the new generation of blue-collar groups have higher needs for job stability, safety and future development, which has given birth to a large-scale market space. Different from the white-collar recruitment market, blue-collar recruitment faces problems such as weak informatization level and low matching efficiency. In contrast, the recruitment market generally presents a trend of "excessive white-collar services and insufficient blue-collar services".
In addition to being optimistic about the market prospects of blue-collar recruitment, the team also embraces simple original intentions and feelings. Zhou Feng, the founder and chairman of Yubao Technology, comes from the countryside, and his relatives work on construction sites all the year round, and he has deeply experienced the difficulty of blue-collar workers finding jobs since he was a child. And now, Yubaowang has solved a total of 380 million jobs, Zhou Feng sighed: "I am quite excited to do something for this group." ”
Committed to finding real bosses for good workers, Yubo Technology has created a new blue-collar recruitment model through digital means since the beginning of its business. Zhou Feng introduced: "Before us, the informatization density and intelligence of the blue-collar recruitment industry were very low, and our emergence has largely helped workers and recruiters solve the problem of bilateral matching efficiency between supply and demand." ”
Up to now, the cumulative users of Yubao.com have exceeded 70 million, and the daily active users have exceeded 3 million, covering construction and logistics, services, manufacturing and other industries, and have also received hundreds of millions of yuan in Series A and B financing from Zhongding and Shunwei.
Such a large number of people are looking for jobs through the Yubo APP every day, which on the one hand drives the rapid development of the business, but also brings complex technical challenges, and Yubo Technology urgently needs to solve the problems of stability, security and efficient data processing.
Zhou Feng revealed that Yubo Technology has set up five dimensions of capability model matching, performance, cost, security, and service to consider technology selection and select cloud vendors. After many investigations, the team found that Alibaba Cloud, as the largest public cloud service provider in China, can meet the requirements of Yubao Technology's business development in terms of brand and product richness, and has a good reputation in terms of service stability, after-sales service, and cost advantages, so it chose to cooperate with Alibaba Cloud.
ALIBABA CLOUD PROVIDES YUBO TECHNOLOGY WITH THE UNDERLYING IAAS AND PASS BASE, AS WELL AS BIG DATA COMPUTING SERVICES, CLOUD NATIVE, NETWORK, STORAGE AND OTHER SERVICES, SUPPORTING THE RAPID GROWTH OF BUSINESSES SUCH AS THE BLUE-COLLAR RECRUITMENT PLATFORM "YUBUBBLE", THE HOME INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE SERVICE "YUBO TO HOME", AND THE ENGINEERING ACCOUNTING TOOL "CONSTRUCTION SITE WORK".
As a result, "Yubowang" has achieved refined operation and ensured the supply of high-quality long-term jobs. "Fish Bubble Home" has increased the supply of short-term installation and maintenance jobs for professional masters covering the whole country. In addition to its rich functions, "construction site work-keeping" also brings blue-collar workers the help of taking evidence and writing down work, and solves salary disputes, which has played a great social benefit.
In-depth cooperation brings security, stability, and efficient collaboration
In order to provide users with high-quality and stable services, Yubo Technology has set up a team of more than 1,000 people, including more than 300 R&D teams, with a cumulative investment of hundreds of millions of R&D funds and a number of patents. At the same time, the core members of the team are all from domestic first-tier Internet companies, and have rich practical experience in cutting-edge strategy, technology research and development, market operation, team management, etc.
Such a team with full combat effectiveness has a strong ambition for technical research, and also needs to achieve efficient coordination in internal governance. As a result, Yubo Technology has deepened its cooperation with Alibaba Cloud in big data computing services, storage, databases, etc.
Zhou Feng was impressed: "Alibaba Cloud's storage services support large-scale data storage and processing, including object storage, relational databases, big data analysis, etc., which helps us manage and analyze data more effectively. In addition, the multi-level security measures provided by Alibaba Cloud, such as data encryption, access control, and firewalls, have helped Yubo Technology effectively protect the sensitive information of its business and customers.
At the same time, Yubo Technology has joined hands with Alibaba Cloud to jointly strengthen the construction of big data centers. Based on Alibaba Cloud's one-stop real-time data warehouse engine Hologres, cloud-native big data computing service MaxCompute, and big data governance development platform DataWorks, Yubo Technology provides a cloud-native integrated data warehouse solution with offline real-time integration, lakehouse integration, analysis service integration, and full-link data governance. Analysis and mining ensure the safe operation of business data with millisecond-level latency.
Alibaba Cloud's outbound call line, storage, risk control, voice recognition and other products strongly support the outbound call center of Yubo Technology. This is the core platform used by Yubo.com in customer service, sales, user research and other scenarios, which is composed of professional customer service or sales personnel to contact customers by phone and perform various tasks to meet the corresponding business demands.
At present, Alibaba Cloud has become the largest cloud service partner of Yubo Technology, which supports Yubo Technology to achieve the security and stability of business operations and efficient collaboration within the company.
Cloud + AI leverages the transformation of a diversified blue-collar recruitment ecosystem
According to Zhou Feng's analysis, the current blue-collar recruitment track has the characteristics of a huge market scale, a clear industrial chain structure, an increased Internet penetration rate, fierce market competition, and an enhanced sense of corporate social responsibility. In the future, with the continuous improvement of computing power and technology, the trend of blue-collar recruitment will show the characteristics of diversification, youthfulness and knowledge. At the same time, blue-collar workers are seeing greater wage increases than white-collar workers, the income gap is narrowing, and the market demand for blue-collar workers is becoming increasingly significant.
Under the new trend, Yubo Technology wants to continue to maintain its leading position in the track, expand new tracks such as technical blue-collar workers and blue-collar workers in new employment groups, and promote the establishment of a sound social security system for blue-collar workers through cooperation with relevant departments and social organizations, which will be a new challenge. To this end, the team has launched a more far-reaching digital layout.
With the significant growth of the user base of Yubo Technology, the cloud architecture of enterprises will become larger and more complex, and the requirements for infrastructure will become higher and higher. In addition, with the continuous tightening of domestic privacy and compliance policies, combined with the business characteristics of the blue-collar recruitment field itself, the challenges of Yububble Technology in risk control and security are becoming increasingly complex, and in the future, it will pay more attention to improving the data governance ecology and promoting the ability to use large models on a larger scale, so as to build the most secure and compliant blue-collar recruitment platform in China.
At the heart of this series of goals is still to improve the efficiency of job matching for blue-collar recruits. "There is no doubt that we will continue to improve the company's capabilities in digital infrastructure and intelligent recommendation in the future. In the next five years, we will continue to invest heavily in big data and recommendation algorithms", Zhou Feng gave an example, white-collar positions can easily structure job information, while blue-collar recruitment positions are usually released in a very simple sentence, so AI language recognition capabilities are required to highly structure job information to support bilateral matching, which has a fairly high demand for cloud storage and computing, and more analysis capabilities and computing power scheduling are needed in the future.
In the future, Yubo Technology hopes to work with Alibaba Cloud to continuously develop product diversity and scalability, enhance product competitiveness, and continue to promote business ecological innovation, so as to better serve the recruitment of blue-collar groups, create a better employment environment for new blue-collar workers in the future, and create a more diversified blue-collar recruitment ecology with cloud + AI technology.
