Senior Software Engineer II, Route Planning
About The Position
Our customers are faced with a constant stream of decisions every day to meet the commitments they have made to their own customers: which orders need to be delivered when, which driver is equipped to drive which truck, and how to balance delivering every order against fleet utilization and the profitability of their business. As an engineer on the Route Planning team, you might work on a product that helps customers recover efficiency in their plans that has degraded with the addition of new customers or deal with the sudden influx of orders on the day of delivery. You will also help measure efficiency of the plans across our Routing products, including route execution and commercial navigation. We are a rapidly scaling team that has found product market fit and is expanding to new verticals. We are looking for someone who will help us shape and build the next generation of Route Planning products.
