What the job really is
About the Role
This is a senior individual contributor role on a small, high-velocity Series A engineering team building a logistics orchestration and decision-intelligence platform for cold-chain shippers and carriers in the pharma and perishables industries. You'll own the data-heavy distributed systems that ingest IoT monitoring data, contextualize it in real time, and quantify shipment risk — work that directly prevents product loss across critical supply chains.
What You'll Do
Design and build backend services powering a cold-chain logistics orchestration and risk-management platform.
Own distributed systems that ingest, process, and contextualize IoT monitoring data at scale.
Build predictive systems for on-time, in-full (OTIF) performance and automate exception-handling workflows.
Integrate with partner-facing operational data sources including webhooks, message queues, and carrier/sensor/vendor APIs.
Collaborate closely with leadership and cross-functional stakeholders to influence architecture and product direction.
Uphold strong engineering practices: testing, CI/CD, monitoring, and observability across all services.
What We're Looking For
5–15 years of backend engineering experience building scalable, data-intensive distributed systems.
Proficiency in at least one modern backend language — Python, Java, Go, or Rust; hands-on Python and/or Java strongly preferred.
Experience with IoT data ingestion, processing, and contextualization.
Solid grounding in relational databases (SQL), data modeling, and ETL pipelines; NoSQL experience is a plus.
Experience designing event-driven architectures and working with messaging systems such as Kafka or RabbitMQ.
Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes for containerization and orchestration.
Experience deploying and operating services on AWS, GCP, or Azure.
Strong API design skills (REST and/or gRPC).
Familiarity with data security, privacy, and regulatory considerations relevant to pharma or cold-chain domains.
Domain knowledge in logistics, supply chain, cold chain, or shipment risk (e.g., OTIF) is a meaningful plus.
Genuine interest in operating at a growth-stage startup — comfortable shipping fast and working with high ownership on a small team.

Base salary: $130,000–$160,000 USD annually
Equity and cash bonus included
Visa sponsorship available for eligible candidates
