About Convoy:

Convoy is transforming the $800 billion trucking industry. Our mission is to transport the world with endless capacity and zero waste. The industry is huge and so is the opportunity to fundamentally change the way freight moves across America and beyond for the better.

We are passionate about thinking big and solving really complex problems to make the lives of truck drivers, shippers and other people in freight industry easier through our innovation and technology. There will always be a better, more efficient way to transport goods, and we won’t ever stop inventing it.

We were named one of Washington State’s top places to work, a LinkedIn Top Startup and were the recipient of the GeekWire Next Text Titan in 2018.

Who we’re looking for:

Data and our data infrastructure are core to Convoy’s mission to automate the logistics industry. Today, we use machine learning to figure out freight prices, shipment relevance for carriers, auction bidding strategy, and automate other internal processes. However, our models are only as good as the data on which they are built.

In this role you will own the following:

  • Mentoring and developing other Data Engineers and Data Analysts.
  • Building and delivering high quality data architecture to support data analysts, data scientists, and customer reporting needs.
  • Interfacing with other technology teams to extract, transform, and load data from a wide variety of data sources.
  • Continually improving reporting and analysis processes, automating or simplifying self-service support for customers

You have the following skills & experience:

  • Bachelor's degree or higher in an engineering or technical field such as Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics, Statistics, or Engineering.
  • 5+ years of relevant experience in one of the following areas: data engineering, database engineering, business intelligence or business analytics.
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in writing SQL queries across data sets.
  • 2+ years of experience in scripting languages like Python.
  • Experience with data modeling, ETL development, and Data warehousing.
  • Experience with Snowflake, Redshift, or similar.
  • Experience with AWS services such as ECS, S3, and RDS.
  • Experience with Big Data Technologies (e.g. Spark, Hadoop, Hive, etc.)
  • You have experience with working and delivering end-to-end projects independently.
  • Knowledge of distributed systems as it pertains to data storage and computing.

  • Commuter Benefits: We transport the world; the least we can do is help get you to work. Every employee receives a fully paid Orca Card to get you around on the bus, light rail, or water taxi. We also provide locked bike storage if you prefer to pedal in.
