Senior full stack sde with data engineering for analytics

SummaryTruckmentum is seeking a Senior Full Stack Software Development Engineer (SDE) with deep data engineering experience to help us build cutting-edge software and data infrastructure for our AI-driven Trucking Science-as-a-Service platform. We’re creating breakthrough data science to transform trucking — and we’re looking for engineers who share our obsession with solving complex, real-world problems with software, data, and intelligent systems.You’ll be part of a team responsible for the development of dynamic web applications, scalable data pipelines, and high-performance backend services that drive better decision-making across the $4 trillion global trucking industry. This is a hands-on role focused on building solutions by combining Python-based full stack development with scalable, modern data engineering.About TruckmentumJust about every sector of the global economy depends on trucking. In the US alone, trucks move 70%+ of all freight by weight (90+% by value) and account for $940 billion in annual spending (globally $4+ trillion per year). Despite this, almost all key decisions in trucking are made manually by people with limited decision support. This results in significant waste and lost opportunities. We view this as a great opportunity.Truckmentum is a self-funded seed stage venture. We are now validating our key data science breakthroughs with customer data and our MVP product launch to confirm product-market fit. We will raise $4-6 million in funding this year to scale our Data Science-as-a-Service platform and bring our vision to market at scale.Our Vision and Approach to TechnologyThe back of our business cards reads “Moneyball for Trucking”, which means quantifying hard-to-quantiify hidden insights, and then using those insights to make much better business decision. If you don’t want “Moneyball for Trucking” on the back of your business card, then Truckmentum isn’t a good fit. Great technology begins with customer obsession. We are obsessed with trucking companies' needs, opportunities, and processes, and with building our solutions into the rhythm of their businesses. We prioritize rapid development and iteration of large scale, complex data science problems, backed by actionable, dynamic data visualizations. We believe in an Agile, lean approach to software engineering, backed by a structured CI/CD approach, professional engineering practices, clean architecture, clean code and testing.Our technology stack includes AWS Cloud, My SQL, Snowflake, Python, SQLAlchemy, Pandas, Streamlit and AGGrid to accelerate development of web visualization and interfaces.About the RoleAs a Senior Full Stack SDE with Data Engineering for Analytics, you will be responsible for designing and building the software systems, user interfaces, and data infrastructure that power Truckmentum’s analytics, data science, and decision support platform.
