Key Responsibilities

• Lead the architecture and design of large-scale, distributed logistics execution and carrier management systems.
• Develop best practices, standards, and frameworks for carrier selection, transit optimization, and delivery performance engineering.
• Guide engineering teams in building and integrating with Transportation Management Systems (TMS), including routing, tendering, and freight audit automation.
• Oversee engineering implementation of multi-carrier rate shopping and dynamic delivery promise engines.
• Manage full stack engineering teams delivering systems for parcel routing, tracking, and shipping label generation.
• Drive seamless integration between WMS platforms and external carrier APIs, shipping platforms such as Proship, Shipium or similar, and TMS solutions like Infios or similar.
• Build systems for real-time tracking, predictive transit insights, and proactive exception management, including integration with third-party platforms such as Narvar for carrier event tracking and post-purchase delivery visibility.
• Act as a technical mentor and leader, providing strategic guidance and career development for engineers at all levels.
• Evaluate and influence the selection of third-party logistics platforms, shipping providers, and TMS vendors.
• Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders to enhance fulfillment and delivery outcomes by improving transit performance, reducing shipping costs, and tracking KPIs such as on-time ship rate and delivery accuracy.
• Ensure logistics execution systems meet high standards for scalability, fault tolerance, and observability.
