About the Role

At Loadsmart, we don’t just hire for "open seats"—we hire for talent and trajectory.

While we might not have a specific role that matches your profile today, we are a high-growth tech unicorn constantly expanding our engineering squads. By applying here, you are joining our exclusive Talent Community. You’ll be the first person we call when a new squad is formed or a specialized position opens up in our Brokerage, Dock & Yard and ShipperGuide teams.

Our Tech Stack & Ecosystem

We solve some of the most complex logistics problems in the world using a modern, scalable stack. We are looking for engineers who are product-minded, collaborative, curious and quality-driven.

Who We Are Looking For

We are building a diverse engineering pipeline and encourage Backend, Frontend, Full Stack, Data, and SRE engineers at all levels (Junior to Staff) to apply. We especially value:

  • Learning Agility: The ability to pick up new frameworks and solve problems in a fast-paced environment.

  • Collaborative Spirit: Engineers who enjoy pairing, mentoring, and working across time zones (Brazil x US).

  • Ownership: A "you build it, you run it" mindset.

Why Join Our Talent Community?

By submitting your resume here, you aren't just hitting "apply." You are:

  • Skipping the Queue: Our TA team reviews this pipeline weekly before posting new roles publicly.

  • Staying Connected: You’ll receive occasional updates about our engineering culture, tech talks, and events (like our partnership with WoMakersCode!).

  • Being Seen: We look for the "80% match"—if your potential is high, we want to know you.
