Role Description:

ShipBob is a global logistics technology company powering e-commerce fulfillment for thousands of brands. Our People team manages the workforce infrastructure that keeps ShipBob running, and we're ready to fundamentally change how that infrastructure works.

We're hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer III (AI) embedded directly within the People team. This is not a traditional engineering role. It is a role for someone who knows enterprise HR systems from the inside, has built AI-assisted automations that run in production, and has the process instincts and data governance discipline to transform how an HR function operates, responsibly. This role reports to the Senior Director, Total Rewards &amp; HR Systems.

You will spend your first 60 days listening, mapping, and diagnosing. Then you will build. You will own the full lifecycle of every automation, from workflow map to production deployment to handoff documentation, working closely with our Central Data team and Legal to ensure sensitive data is handled with the care it deserves. This role reports to the Senior Director, Total Rewards &amp; HR Systems.

What you'll do:
<ul>
<li>Employee lifecycle automation: new hires, role changes, terminations, transfers, and leave. Eliminate the manual coordination that currently runs on emails and spreadsheets by building automated task orchestration with SLAs, escalation paths, and audit-ready logs.</li>
<li>Comp planning infrastructure hardening: access controls, versioning, approval workflows, and AI-assisted benchmarking across our SecureSheets environment.</li>
<li>Build a unified People analytics layer connecting ADP Workforce Now, Greenhouse, and Lattice into a governed data model that gives People leaders real workforce intelligence.</li>
<li>Performance and goals connectivity: build the data infrastructure that links performance data in Lattice to workforce decisions.</li>
<li>Spend your first 60 days embedded across every People sub-function, listening, mapping, and building a prioritized automation backlog that you own and execute against.</li>
<li>Establish logging, monitoring, and alerting infrastructure for all automations. Publish reusable modules to the Automation Hub.</li>
<li>Document all production automations to handoff-ready standard. Ensure every automation touching sensitive data has Legal sign-off and complies with HIPAA and PII governance requirements.</li>
<li>Additional duties and responsibilities as necessary.</li>
</ul>
What you'll bring to the table:
<ul>
<li>5-8 years working with enterprise HR systems (ADP, Workday, SuccessFactors, or equivalent) at an integration or implementation level, not just as an end user.</li>
<li>Demonstrated experience building and deploying AI-assisted workflows in production. Not demos, not proofs of concept, but things that run.</li>
<li>Sound API integration skills: you have built RESTful integrations from scratch, handled auth and error states, and built things that do not break silently.</li>
<li>Real depth in access control design for sensitive data. Working knowledge of HIPAA requirements and hands-on experience implementing role-based access controls in systems handling PII.</li>
<li>Process thinking: you can take an undocumented, messy workflow and produce a clean system flow that exposes every failure mode before you write a line of code.</li>
<li>High agency. You do not need a fully scoped project list to operate. You find the work.</li>
<li>Experience with Greenhouse ATS at an API or integration level, preferred.</li>
<li>Background in comp planning tools or sales incentive software, preferred.</li>
<li>Familiarity with iPaaS platforms (Workato, Zapier, Boomi) in addition to direct API work, preferred.</li>
<li>Experience at a high-growth, operationally complex company (logistics, e-commerce, manufacturing), preferred.</li>
</ul>
ShipBob believes in transparency while providing a competitive total compensation package with a pay for performance approach. The full base pay range for this position in our compensation architecture is $134,162 - $223,603. In addition to base salary, this role includes the opportunity to be eligible for participation in the Company's discretionary bonus plan based on Company's plans and in accordance with Company's policies.

Perks &amp; Benefits:
<ul>
<li>Medical, Dental, Vision &amp; Basic Life Insurance</li>
<li>Paid Maternity/Parental Leave Program</li>
<li>Paid Holidays &amp; Flexible Time Off Program</li>
<li>Paid Sick Leave</li>
<li>Wellness Days (1 day/quarter)</li>

Diversity of experience and skills combined with passion is a key to innovation and excellence; therefore, we encourage people from all backgrounds to apply to our positions.

About You:

Building the world's leading full-stack fulfillment platform is challenging work. The problems we solve are complex, the pace is fast, and the bar is high. That means ShipBob's environment isn't the right fit for everyone, and that's okay. If you are ready to take ownership, push boundaries, and grow alongside a team that genuinely supports each other, we would love to hear from you.

Learn more about our core values and how we perform at a high level in our day-to-day work on our Culture page (https://www.shipbob.com/careers/culture/).

About Us: 

ShipBob is a leading global supply chain and fulfillment technology platform designed for SMB and Mid-Market ecommerce merchants to provide them access to best-in-class capabilities and to deliver a delightful shopper experience. Merchants can outsource their entire fulfillment operations, utilize ShipBob's proprietary warehouse management system for in-house fulfillment, or take advantage of a hybrid solution across ShipBob's dozens of fulfillment center network in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia. ShipBob is backed by leading investors like Menlo Ventures, Bain Capital Ventures, Hyde Park Venture Partners, and SoftBank Vision Fund 2, and is one of the fastest-growing tech companies headquartered in Chicago. 

At ShipBob, every full-time employee gets access to our best-in-class AI and productivity tools from Day 1 at no cost. This isn't a pilot or a perk for select teams. It's standard for everyone. We believe innovation isn't owned by one department. Whether you're in Talent, Operations, Finance, Engineering, or Customer Success, we expect you to ask: how can this be done better, faster, or smarter? These tools are our investment in your ability to find those answers.

We may use AI-powered tools during our interview process to support things like notetaking and organizing feedback so our teams can stay focused on getting to know you. These tools help create a more consistent and thoughtful experience. That said, every hiring decision is made by a human.

ShipBob provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment and prohibits discrimination and harassment of any type without regard to race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, disability status, genetics, protected veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other characteristic protected by federal, state or local laws. 
 
This policy applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including recruiting, hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leaves of absence, compensation and training.

There is no deadline to apply for this position, as ShipBob accepts applications on an ongoing basis.</div></div>

<div><div>Why p44LSP.ai?

At project44, we believe in better &mdash; and p44LSP.ai is what better looks like for the logistics service provider market.

For years, project44 focused on global shippers as our core customer. That focus worked. Our Shipper business is a category leader growing 20% year-over-year. That strength is what makes the next chapter possible.

Shippers and LSPs are fundamentally different businesses. Shippers buy logistics software to support their core operations. Logistics Service Providers &mdash; freight forwarders, brokers, and 3PLs &mdash; sell logistics as their product. Their software is their competitive edge. They buy fast, build on APIs and agents, and reward teams that ship in weeks, not quarters.

This is why we created p44LSP.ai: a dedicated, AI-native division built to serve the LSP market with the focus, speed, and resources it deserves. It's the scope and ownership of an AI startup, backed by the infrastructure of a $124M business &mdash; 259K carriers, billions of shipment outcomes, agents in production, and direct access to project44's data graph, carrier network, and enterprise relationships.

This is a small, hand-picked team operating across Chicago, San Francisco, Bangalore, and the EU. Flat org. Forward-deployed engineering. AI coding tools across the workflow. Agents as the product surface. Customers who pilot in weeks and tell you what they think directly.

The LSP market is moving fast. AI agent startups are growing 300%+ year-over-year, and seven of eight sell to LSPs. We have the data position, the platform, the customers, and now the team. We're hiring the engineers who will build it with us.

AI at project44

We expect every project44 team member, regardless of role or function, to actively leverage AI in their day-to-day work. Whether you're building product, serving customers, managing people, or running operations, AI is a tool you're expected to use with intent, curiosity, and judgment. We don't expect everyone to be a data scientist. We do expect everyone to be an intelligent user of AI: able to identify where it adds value, direct it effectively, evaluate outputs critically, and govern it responsibly. We invest in our team's AI fluency because we believe it's a competitive advantage for every person at project44, not just our engineers

If you&rsquo;re driven to solve meaningful problems, leverage AI to scale rapidly, drive impact daily, and be part of a high-performance team &ndash; we should talk.

The Role

Most engineers build for customers. FDEs build with them. You'll be embedded directly with high-value LSP accounts &mdash; owning integration architecture, customizing agent workflows, and serving as the ground truth between how LSPs actually operate and how our product team thinks they do. Your job is to transform logistics from a reactive service into a programmable network &mdash; replacing manual workflows with autonomous agent-to-agent coordination. What you learn in the field shapes the roadmap. You ship in weeks, not quarters.

What You'll Work On
<ul>
<li>Own end-to-end integration for dedicated LSP accounts &mdash; configure bi-directional webhooks and event-driven pipelines so AI agents can read, act, and write data into customer TMS, WMS, and ERP systems instantly</li>
<li>Unify disparate customer data into a single actionable signal &mdash; driving dynamic interoperability across core business systems</li>
<li>Customize interfaces and agent logic to fit existing LSP workflows across freight procurement, load tendering, and exception handling &mdash; reducing time-to-value and making adoption feel natural</li>
<li>Feed the right context to agents and debug decisions when they go wrong &mdash; tracing failures back to the specific data point, prompt, or tool use that caused them</li>
<li>Build event-driven pipelines (Kafka/PubSub) that carry agent intent at the scale of millions of logistics events per day</li>
<li>Serve as the ground truth &mdash; we can't build a world-class product in a silo. Your field observations directly inform what gets on the roadmap and when</li>
</ul>
What We're Looking For

Qualifications
<ul>
<li>5+ years in software engineering, solutions engineering, or technical implementation in a customer-facing role</li>
<li>Mastery of API-first design and bi-directional webhook configuration</li>
<li>Experience with event-driven architecture and stream processing (Kafka, PubSub, or similar)</li>
<li>Hands-on integration experience with TMS, WMS, or ERP systems</li>
<li>Strong debugging skills across distributed, agent-driven workflows</li>
<li>Deep domain knowledge in logistics &mdash; freight procurement, load tendering, carrier management, and exception handling. LSP customers don't trust engineers who don't understand their world. You need to speak their language to earn the right to change how they work.</li>
</ul>
Nice to Have
<ul>
<li>Experience with agentic AI systems &mdash; context feeding, prompt engineering, tool invocation, stateful agents</li>
<li>Prior experience in a forward-deployed or field engineering role</li>
<li>Containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)</li>
</ul>
How You Work
<ul>
<li>You take ownership of outcomes, not just deliverables</li>
<li>You bring back what you see in the field and use it to make the product better</li>
<li>You move fast, iterate in the open, and don't wait for perfect conditions</li>
<li>You can translate technical complexity to both engineers and LSP operators without losing either audience</li>
</ul>
