Role Overview

We’re looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer who is passionate about designing and building scalable, intelligent systems.

• Build and optimize RESTful APIs and microservices following best HTTP and security practices
• Architect and implement queue systems and data flows for scalable, event-driven systems
• Work with MongoDB and other storage solutions to design performant data models
• Deploy and manage applications using Google Cloud Run, Docker, and modern CI/CD pipelines
• Collaborate on building specialized and general agentic orchestration systems for the freight industry, enabling AI-native automation and decision-making
• Follow and help define system design and deployment standards to ensure reliability and maintainability
