Software Engineer, Full Stack (Mid-Level to Senior) at Menlo Ventures

The trucking industry is the backbone of the global economy. Roughly 70% of what we consume in the U.S. is moved by trucks. Those trucks are powered by over 3.5 million drivers per year and create over $700B in annual revenue. Trucking is a massive industry but it is a traditional industry and like many traditional industries, it is ripe for innovation.

CloudTrucks is building the operating system for trucking and is the first platform specifically designed to empower truck drivers. Our all-in-one, “business in a box” solution optimizes and automates operations and accelerates cash-flow for drivers, so they can focus on building their business.

Being an all-in-one platform, our product development teams tackle a broad range of complex challenges ranging from understanding geolocation and logistics route optimizations, to IOT and SaaS integrations, to business workflow automations, to building fintech products.

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Growth team, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our company. With growth being a top priority, your contributions will help us scale rapidly while maintaining high standards of efficiency and quality. You will leverage your technical expertise to make critical decisions, build robust systems, and deliver products that empower both the truck drivers on our platform and our internal teams.

Examples of projects that you may work on

• Automated Onboarding Systems: Leverage LLMs to build a seamless, scalable onboarding flow that captures driver information, ingests driving history from third parties, and automates decisioning logic to get drivers on the road quickly and efficiently.

• Driver Engagement and Rewards: Develop a flexible rewards platform that allows us to experiment with various campaigns to engage and reward drivers, ensuring sustained participation and loyalty.

• KYC/KYB Automation: Implement automated KYC/KYB processes to facilitate fast onboarding while effectively filtering out bad actors.

• Redesign the infrastructure of our Tier 1 integrations service to handle 100x the current load, with high performance, visibility, and resilience to failures.

• Take complete ownership over projects and features. Work across a range of systems and technologies to deliver end-to-end solutions.

• Partner with cross functional teams to ensure a complete and delightful customer experience.

• Help set and improve our engineering processes, standards, and tooling.

• Mentor other engineers and help them grow in their role.
