Role summary

Fleetline is seeking founding engineers to help build optimization algorithms for large trucking companies. This role is for a generalist comfortable with Python and Typescript, who can contribute to long-term product vision, integration work, and client interactions. The ideal candidate is a hard worker, enjoys fast-paced environments, and has experience in startups or big tech. This is a unique opportunity to join a well-funded, lean founding team and make a significant impact.

Fleetline writes optimization algorithms for large trucking companies; after a recent spike in contracted customers, we are now expanding the team and looking for founding engineers.

**A bit about us:**

* $500k in contracted ARR after 3 months of launch (a realistic path to $1m over the next 6 months)
* Founded by two best friends from high school
* Lean, welcoming, and dedicated founding team — expectation for every person in the company is to genuinely care about the vision and each other
* Backed by a large seed round from top investors like BoxGroup, Base10, and more

**A bit about the role and ideal matches:**

* Looking for generalists who are willing to do any task technically to push the team forward (from long-term product vision to integration work)
* Ideally comfortable with being forward deployed — ie, enjoy talking to clients and solving their specific problems
* Ships code fast and often; is not a perfectionist
* Is an extremely hard worker when they are in a strong team environment and working on a vision they care about
* Has experience at top start ups or big tech companies companies; or is an ex-founder/founding engineer; or someone who obsesses over side projects (deployed and live, ideally).
* Comfortable with Python/Typescript

Pedigree is generally not important — just looking for people who are grinders, intelligent, and are good at shipping.
