Senior Full Stack SDE with Data Engineering for Analytics

Summary

Truckmentum 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 Truckmentum

Just 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 Technology

T he 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, MySQL, Snowflake, Python, SQLAlchemy, Pandas, Streamlit and AGGrid to accelerate development of web visualization and interfaces.

About the Role

As 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. This is a true full stack role — you’ll work across frontend, backend, and data layers using Python, Streamlit, Snowflake, and modern DevOps practices. You’ll help architect and implement a clean, extensible system that supports complex machine learning models, large-scale data processing, and intuitive business-facing applications.

You will report to the CEO (Will Payson), a transportation science expert with 25 years in trucking, who has delivered $1B+ in annual savings for FedEx and Amazon. You will also work closely with the CMO / Head of Product, Tim Liu, who has 20+ years of experience in building and commercializing customer-focused digital platforms including in logistics.

Responsibilities and Goals

• Design and build full stack applications using Python, Streamlit, and modern web frameworks to power internal tools, analytics dashboards, and customer-facing products.
• Develop scalable data pipelines to ingest, clean, transform, and serve data from diverse sources into Snowflake and other cloud-native databases.
• Implement low-latency, high-availability backend services to support data science, decision intelligence, and interactive visualizations.
• Integrate front-end components with backend systems and ensure seamless interaction between UI, APIs, and data layers.
• Collaborate with data scientists / ML engineers to deploy models, support experimentation, and enable rapid iteration on analytics use cases.
• Define and evolve our data strategy and architecture, including schemas, governance, versioning, and access patterns across business units and use cases.
• Implement DevOps best practices, including testing, CI / CD automation, and observability, to improve reliability and reduce technical debt.
• Ensure data integrity and privacy through validation, error handling, and secure design.
• Contribute to product planning and roadmaps by working with cross-functional teams to estimate scope, propose solutions, and deliver value iteratively.
