Full Stack Software Engineer

At Terminal, we believe the logistics yard is the last great untapped frontier in supply chain technology — a space still run on clipboards, radios, and guesswork. Yet these yards move the trucks, trailers, chassis, and containers that power global commerce. Unlocking yard-level data is foundational to improving efficiency, sustainability, and scalability across the supply chain.

That’s why we’re building the world’s first AI-powered Yard Operating System (YOS), a platform that digitizes, automates, and orchestrates everything that happens in the yard. Powered by our Terminal Vision Engine and best-in-class machine learning, we give operators real-time visibility, intelligence, and control to slash dwell times, eliminate phantom costs, and boost throughput.

The result? Safer, smarter, faster yards — and the chance to redefine a trillion-dollar industry from the ground up. Backed by top-tier investors and partnered with leading global logistics companies, we’re not just solving problems, we’re creating the category standard.

Joining Terminal means joining a team that’s rewriting the rules of modern logistics. If you want to make a tangible impact on how goods move through the global supply chain, this is an opportunity to do meaningful work at a pivotal stage of growth.

We're looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer to join our Yardstar product team. This role spans the entire stack — from Go backend services, PostgreSQL databases, and infrastructure to React/TypeScript frontends. You'll work in a monorepo environment, shipping features end-to-end across API, database, UI, and infrastructure layers.

You'll take ownership across the full stack — from infrastructure and backend systems to the product UI — building Go services, designing PostgreSQL schemas, and shipping TypeScript/React features end-to-end. This is a high-impact seat where your work shapes core platform reliability, developer tooling, and the product experience our customers rely on every day.

• Build and extend mission control workflows powered by Temporal (signals, cancellation, step-level timeouts, hierarchical designations, milestone tracking).

• Deliver features across Go APIs, PostgreSQL migrations, React/TypeScript UIs, and OpenFGA permissions — often in a single PR.

• Design and maintain API services on Cloudflare Workers with D1 databases, including carrier search/lookup APIs with hybrid schemas.

• Consolidate multiple data sources (e.g., US SAFER + Canadian carrier data) into unified, well-documented API endpoints.

• Improve migration workflows, CI validation (timestamp checks, SQL linting), and branch-aware tooling.

• Add OpenTelemetry tracing and metrics to critical workflow paths.

• Coordinate multi-service releases with operations teams, communicate downtime windows, and hotfix in real time during go-live events.

Experience: Solid professional software engineering experience across the full stack, with a focus on Go (Golang) backend services, PostgreSQL databases, TypeScript/React frontends, and infrastructure. You build and own features end-to-end with a high degree of craft and reliability.

Infrastructure & Deployment: Experience designing and operating production infrastructure in a cloud environment. Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform, CDK) and CI/CD pipelines. Comfort owning deployment reliability, scaling, and incident response across services.

Backend & API: Strong proficiency in Go (Golang) with experience building and maintaining production-grade services. Comfortable with RESTful API design including bulk operations and authentication (JWT, service tokens), middleware, and structured logging. Experience with PostgreSQL schema design, migrations, and query optimization.

Data Layer: Experience with multi-source data consolidation and building unified, well-documented API endpoints. Comfort with data safety tooling and CI validation (e.g., timestamp checks, SQL linting).

Frontend: Proficiency in TypeScript and React (component architecture, state management, responsive UI). Experience with Vite and modern frontend build tooling. Ability to implement filters, polling, error boundaries, and form-heavy UIs.

Edge & Observability: Experience with edge computing environments and low-latency API patterns. Familiarity with OpenTelemetry or similar observability tooling.

Cross-Cutting: Comfortable working in a monorepo with multiple deployable services. Familiarity with OpenFGA or similar authorization frameworks.

Communication & Collaboration: Ability to clearly communicate deployment risks and downtime to non-technical stakeholders. Triage live production issues in real time while keeping operations teams informed. Proactively share tooling discoveries and architectural context across team channels.

• 6+ years of professional software engineering experience with a demonstrated track record of end-to-end ownership across the full stack.

• Experience in logistics, transportation, or yard/warehouse management domains.

• Track record of shipping end-to-end features solo across 3+ layers of the stack.

• Backend proficiency in a statically typed language other than Go (Rust, Java, Kotlin) with demonstrated ability to ramp quickly on new languages.

• Comfort with Python scripting for tooling and data pipelines.

• Experience leveraging AI coding assistants (Claude, Copilot) as part of daily workflow.

• Experience with Temporal workflow orchestration (signals, cancellation, activity patterns, step-level timeouts).

• Experience deploying and operating services on AWS (EC2, ECS, Lambda, RDS, S3, or similar).

• Experience with Cloudflare Workers and edge computing (D1, KV, edge caching) for low-latency API services.

• Comfort building application layers that integrate with computer vision or ML pipeline outputs, wiring model results into product workflows and UI surfaces.

• Comfort engaging directly with field operations teams and customer-facing stakeholders during live production rollouts.

Joining the Terminal team means being part of a dynamic, innovative environment where your work directly shapes the future of logistics and the global supply chain. You will work closely with a team of experts passionate about operational excellence and technological innovation. We offer competitive salaries, a comprehensive benefits package, and opportunities for professional growth.
