Join an early-stage logistics technology team as a Forward Deployed Engineer, working directly with freight and operations customers. You will turn complex workflows into reliable software, connecting customer needs with product and engineering decisions in a mission-critical industry.

What You'll Do

  • Work with logistics teams to understand their workflows and translate operational needs into system designs.
  • Build and ship full-stack, AI-powered tools using TypeScript and Node.js.
  • Integrate enterprise systems such as ERP and TMS platforms, APIs, SFTP, and event queues.

  • Own work from design through deployment, iterating quickly based on customer feedback.
  • Travel regularly to customer sites across Europe and Asia.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 3 years of experience building full-stack applications or backend systems in production.
  • Strong TypeScript and Node.js skills, with experience designing APIs and integrating external systems.
  • Experience building and maintaining backend infrastructure, data pipelines, and systems that handle real-world data.
  • Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure and tools such as Docker, Terraform, GCP, or AWS.
  • Experience working directly with customers or end users to gather requirements and validate solutions.
  • Ability to work with autonomy, communicate clearly across technical and non-technical teams, and travel regularly.
  • React or another modern frontend framework is useful. Experience with LLM architectures, logistics, supply chain, or early-stage teams is also beneficial.
