About The Position

At Truckstop, we have transformed the entire freight-moving lifecycle with our SaaS solutions. From freight matching to payments and everything in between, we are the trusted partner for carriers, brokers, and shippers alike. We lead this industry forward with our One Team mindset committing to principles such as assume positive intent, have each other’s back, and be your authentic self. Our drive for greatness produces high expectations, yet our regard for humans is even higher. Join a team of brilliant minds and generous hearts who care deeply about other's success. Please note: This is a full-time, in-person role based at our Boise office (1444 S. Entertainment Ave., Boise, ID 83709). As the Product Manager for Rates, you will own the strategy, vision, and roadmap for Truckstop.com’s suite of freight rate intelligence products—spanning three established offerings delivered via API, embedded in our Load Board, and as a standalone experience. You will lead the strategy to enhance and/or consolidate these existing products while simultaneously driving discovery, definition, and delivery of new offerings and a next-generation rates platform. This role demands a deep understanding of truckload freight pricing mechanics, strong analytical instincts, and the ability to synthesize market signals, customer data, and competitive intelligence into compelling product experiences that help brokers and carriers make smarter pricing decisions. The Product Manager will work closely with customers, data science, engineering, other product managers, and go-to-market teams to maximize the value of Truckstop’s rates portfolio and deliver measurable business results that meet market needs and company goals.
