Responsibilities
Design and deploy a cloud-native Data Lake (Snowflake/AWS S3) that ingests data from all operational verticals: Freight Forwarding and Warehousing into a single "Source of Truth."
Lead the integration strategy using iPaaS (Workato/Boomi) to trigger real-time actions (e.g., "Container Arrival" triggers "Warehouse Pre-Alert") and ELT (Fivetran) for high-volume reporting
Architect the "Order Lifecycle" data model that links a Bill of Lading (Freight) to a SKU (Warehouse) and an Invoice (Finance), enabling true end-to-end visibility
Use dbt to clean and normalize messy data (e.g., standardizing carrier names across TMS and WMS) so our AI Agents can reliably automate pricing and tracking
Build the API connectors that allow AI Agents to "read" emails and "write" data back into the TMS/WMS without human intervention
Implement automated "Health Checks" to ensure data accuracy across the supply chain (e.g., flagging if a container is marked "Delivered" in the TMS but "Not Received" in the WMS)
Qualification
Required
5+ years in Data Engineering: Expert-level SQL and Python; proven experience merging distinct data sources (e.g., TMS + WMS) into a unified model
Modern Data Stack: Deep expertise with dbt (Data Build Tool) for transformations and ELT tools (Fivetran/Airbyte)
Integration Architect: Experience using iPaaS (Boomi, MuleSoft, Workato) to orchestrate workflows across API-based systems
Logistics Domain: You understand the full lifecycle: EDI, Bill of Lading, WMS Inventory, and Final Mile
Systems Mindset: Ability to understand the critical nature of accurate data related to the business and design systems to prevent errors
Sense of Urgency: Competence with building quality product within short timelines while working in a fast-paced environment
