About the Role

Join an early-stage engineering team building AI-powered tools for the freight and logistics sector. You will take ownership of core product development, combining hands-on full-stack engineering with production AI experimentation to shape the product and its technical direction.

What You'll Do

  • Design, build, and maintain critical parts of the product.

  • Develop reliable full-stack features that help users work more efficiently.

  • Evaluate, benchmark, and fine-tune AI capabilities for accuracy and domain context.

  • Experiment with new models, frameworks, and agentic techniques, then ship and improve promising approaches based on data and user feedback.

  • Improve complex legacy code and build scalable infrastructure and automation for data and AI workloads.

  • Work closely with the founding team and engineering colleagues as a hands-on contributor.

What We're Looking For

  • Typically 2 to 5 years of hands-on professional experience, or an equivalent track record through relevant projects.

  • Strong full-stack skills, with substantial experience building backend-heavy production applications and working across backend and cloud environments.

  • Fluency in Python; familiarity with Go is a plus.

  • Practical experience building or integrating production AI/ML systems, including LLM benchmarking, fine-tuning, and experimentation.

  • Experience delivering robust systems, working with complex codebases, and engineering for scale and automation.

  • Strong computer science fundamentals, autonomy, adaptability, and a high sense of ownership. Startup experience is preferred.
