Transport

Hercules is an award-winning, asset-based motor carrier and customs brokerage, specializing in US-to-Canada and intra US shipments. The company offers services that combine the flexibility of a regional carrier with the national coverage, positioning them as one of the fastest-growing less-than-truckload (LTL) carriers in the market. Hercules operates over 1000 pieces of equipment through more than 30 terminals, boasting an innovative 'no breakbulk' structure that reduces transit time and minimizes the risk of damage and misrouting. Additionally, Hercules employs the latest green fleet technology in partnership with both the Canada Border Services Agency and US Customs and Border Protection, demonstrating a commitment to responsible and efficient transportation solutions.

📋 Description

• Partner with Product and stakeholders to understand workflows, needs, and problem spaces • Translate ambiguous requirements into clear technical plans and system designs • Validate solutions through real usage and feedback loops, not just specs • Communicate progress, risks, and trade-offs clearly to technical and non-technical audiences • Ensure engineering work is always anchored to customer value and business outcomes • Design and evolve system architecture for scalable, reliable platforms • Contribute directly to core systems across the full stack: frontend, backend, and infrastructure • Own key technical decisions and guide architectural direction • Drive best practices across CI/CD, testing, observability, and release processes • Deliver outcomes end-to-end, from design through production • Build and integrate AI-powered capabilities into production systems • Tune model behavior, evaluate outputs, and iterate toward reliable results • Design and optimize inference pipelines with attention to latency, cost, and reliability • Apply LLM capabilities (tool-use, prompt design, evaluation) to solve real problems, not research • Lead and develop engineers through coaching, feedback, and growth support • Practice servant leadership: remove blockers, enable success, set the standard through your own work • Build a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement

🎯 Requirements

• 7+ years of professional software engineering experience with strong production ownership • Proven track record as a Tech Lead or senior engineer who drives both systems and teams • Strong product instinct with the ability to connect technical decisions to customer value • Full-stack capability with depth in Python and backend systems • Practical experience with AI/LLM-powered systems in production, or strong ability to ramp quickly • Excellent communication skills across technical and non-technical audiences • Experience coaching and developing engineers • Comfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments
