The reality on the ground

## What logistics teams are actually dealing with.

Integration sprawl.

Carriers, 3PLs, ERPs, shippers — every partner has a different API, a different EDI dialect, a different SLA.

Real-time vs. legacy.

Customers want live ETAs. Your partners still send you EDI 214s. The pipeline has to handle both, gracefully.

Margin pressure + peak spikes.

Thin margins, seasonal surges, no tolerance for outages. The system carries the weight.

Where we plug in

## TMS, WMS, EDI, telematics.

Our engineers have shipped integration platforms, routing engines, telematics ingest pipelines, and carrier networks in production. They treat a carrier outage like a P0.

Carrier & 3PL integration

EDI and API integrations with FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL, regional LTL, and last-mile networks.

TMS / WMS / ERP

SAP, Oracle, NetSuite integrations. Warehouse, yard, and dock orchestration.

Routing & visibility

Real-time ETA engines, route optimization, exception management, proof of delivery.

Telematics & ELD

Device ingest pipelines, HOS, geofencing, event-driven fleet data.

Industry fluency

## The language we've shipped against.

Not keywords on a résumé — standards, systems, and carriers our engineers have worked inside of in production.

What we've shipped

## Real work. Real stakes.

Carrier integration

Onboarded 30+ carriers through a unified API layer.

Case study in progress

Visibility platform

Built a real-time ETA engine processing millions of shipment events daily.

Case study in progress

WMS modernization

Replaced a legacy WMS without a single day of warehouse downtime.

Case study in progress

Roles we staff most

## The profiles logistics teams ask us for.

EDI / API integration engineers

Carrier, 3PL, and ERP integrations with production SLAs.

Telematics data engineers

High-volume ingest, stream processing, event-driven fleet data.

Routing / dispatch backend

Optimization engines, constraint solvers, exception handling.

Platform reliability engineers

On-call literate. Build for uptime, retries, and graceful degradation.

The bar we hold

## Freight-grade defaults.

01

Uptime-minded by default.

SLAs, circuit breakers, and graceful degradation are in the first PR, not retrofitted later.

02

Event-driven fluency.

Queues, streams, idempotent consumers. We don't couple carriers to your database.

03

Idempotency + retries as starting point.

Every integration assumes the other side will go down. Nothing breaks twice.

04

On-call literate.

Runbooks, dashboards, and alert hygiene ship with the code. No "I'll document it later."

## Need engineers who build for uptime?

Embed senior engineers into your team — people who know TMS, WMS, EDI, and why a retry queue beats a feature flag.
