Your role will be at the forefront of automating and standardizing a sector that moves trillions of dollars' worth of goods annually, predominantly by truck, but still lacks modern tools and solutions. Your leadership will help bridge this gap, bringing innovative technologies to a traditionally underserved and mission-critical industry. About Alvys Alvys is the fastest-growing Transportation Management System (TMS) in history, uniquely positioned to dominate and truly revolutionize the $800 billion US transportation logistics industry.

Drive technical vision and architecture decisions across engineering teams, creating well-thought-out design documents that guide long-term work. Research, create proofs of concept, and evangelize new technologies that enhance team capabilities and align with business objectives. Own the technical architecture and delivery of large-scale, business-critical systems, ensuring they meet the highest standards for stability, performance, and scalability. Think holistically about system architecture, reducing complexity to achieve more with less effort. Mentor engineers across teams to accelerate their career growth and share knowledge through tech talks, design reviews, and code reviews. Manage a smaller team of engineers (e.g., DevOps or Data teams) depending on organizational needs, balancing technical work with people leadership. Challenge and improve team processes, ensuring projects are appropriately broken down, prioritized, and well understood. Build effective relationships with product, design, and operations to translate business logic into engineering deliverables. The Experience You Have 8+ years of experience, with a proven track record of owning and delivering large-scale, mission-critical operational software from design to production. Expert-level proficiency in a modern programming language (e.g., C#, Java, TypeScript), with a strong foundation in C# and ASP.NET preferred. Nice to have: Familiarity with frontend development concepts and modern UI frameworks to facilitate better end-to-end system design and cross-stack collaboration. Competency in both Relational and NoSQL databases (e.g., CosmosDB, DynamoDB, Elasticsearch, Postgres), with experience supporting these systems at scale. Experience with at least one major cloud provider (Azure, AWS, or GCP). Demonstrated experience designing and maintaining high-traffic, resilient backend systems in a production environment. Strong technical leadership skills with experience mentoring engineers; experience managing smaller teams is a plus. Strong technical leadership skills, including mentoring engineers and driving cross-team architectural consensus. Small-team management experience is a plus.

The Way You Work Ownership: You take end-to-end responsibility, especially for mission-critical operational software, ensuring quality, reliability, and results from the initial design through to the production environment. Strategic: You understand that technical debt is a choice used to unlock speed, provided the architecture remains clean and maintainable. Simplicity: You believe that while logistics is complex, technology shouldn't be. You prioritize modularity to reduce cognitive load. Transparency: You democratize data and participate in constructive feedback loops to ensure alignment and continuous growth across the team.   Equal Employment Opportunity Alvys is an equal opportunity employer and as such, we do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or any other characteristic protected by applicable laws.
