About this role
ABOUT THE ROLE
Join an early-stage freight and logistics technology team as a hands-on founding engineer. You will shape the core product and technical direction by combining full-stack product engineering with practical AI experimentation.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Design, build, and maintain critical product components, taking ownership from architecture through delivery.
- Develop reliable full-stack features that improve user efficiency.
- Evaluate, benchmark, and fine-tune AI capabilities for accuracy and domain relevance.
- Experiment with models, frameworks, and agent techniques in production, then iterate using 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 colleagues as a hands-on, high-ownership contributor.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Typically 2 to 3 years of professional experience, or equivalent relevant projects and demonstrated ability.
- Strong full-stack engineering skills, including substantial backend product development and experience working across cloud environments.
- Fluency in Python; familiarity with Go is a plus.
- Practical experience building or integrating production AI/ML or LLM systems, including benchmarking, fine-tuning, and experimentation.
- Evidence of building robust production systems, with comfort working at scale, automating systems, and improving complex codebases.
- Strong computer science fundamentals, adaptability, self-direction, and a high sense of ownership.
- Startup or entrepreneurial experience is valued. Freight, logistics, or supply-chain experience is a plus.

About this listing
Published on Ashby under the board identifier Clera, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.
RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.
