Opportunity

Broker Tech builds products for the Convoy Platform at DAT, enabling brokers to match and execute shipments while working seamlessly within their Transportation Management Systems.

  • Empowering Matching : Building smarter tools and visibility that boost broker match rates and strengthen carrier connections.
  • Fueling Growth : Enabling brokers to expand through better pricing, new freight categories, and integrations.
  • Encouraging Healthy Behaviors : Guiding brokers toward practices that protect our carrier network and ensure product quality.
  • Ensuring Payments : Strengthening and automating broker payment processes to reduce risk and ensure reliability.
  • Enhancing Communication : Creating unified, timely communication channels so brokers stay informed and engaged in real time.
  • Enabling Ideal Experiences : Delivering seamless workflows leveraging APIs and webhooks between Convoy Platform and TMSs, while empowering brokers with self‑service configuration and onboarding tools.

What You’ll Do

Hands‑On Development

  • Write, test, and deploy production‑quality code; establish code review and documentation standards.
  • Implement message‑driven workflows (Kafka, RabbitMQ) and reusable integration components.
  • Improve the code structure and architecture as you develop new features.
  • Technical Leadership

  • Be the technical lead for projects, contributing to the planning, design, development, deployment, and maintenance of product features. You will drive design + delivery, not people management.
  • Ensure that technical and inter‑team dependencies are understood and accounted for.
  • Collaboration & Growth

  • Partner with product and business stakeholders to clarify requirements in a complex domain.
  • Mentor junior developers and ensure that established codebase standards are adhered to.
  • The Skills And Experience You’ll Bring

  • 7+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Strong proficiency with TypeScript, Node.js, including API design, performance, and debugging in production.
  • Familiarity with frontend development in React.
  • Production operational competence : observability (logs / metrics / traces), incident response, root‑cause analysis, and on‑call readiness.
  • Experience with distributed systems fundamentals : consistency tradeoffs, failure modes, timeouts, retries, and graceful degradation.
  • Hands‑on experience with message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ) and cloud‑native deployments (Docker / Kubernetes on AWS / Azure / GCP).
  • Proficiency with datastores (SQL strongly preferred; NoSQL a plus) including schema design, migrations, and query performance.
  • Ability to own architecture and code end‑to‑end in a high ownership, low process environment.
  • Excellent problem‑solving and communication skills.
  • Bonus Skills

  • Experience designing and operating microservices in production : service boundaries, versioning, backward compatibility, and reliability.
  • GraphQL experience (schema design, performance, caching) or strong REST + contract discipline.
  • Experience working in a CI / CD environment : automated builds, safe deploys, rollbacks, feature flags, and environment promotion.
  • Background in transportation, logistics, or complex B2B integrations.
  • Why DAT?

However employees who have access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a part of their essential job functions cannot disclose the pay of other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to compensation information, unless the disclosure is (a) in response to a formal complaint or charge, (b) in furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation conducted by the employer, or (c) consistent with the contractor’s legal duty to furnish information. 41 CFR 60-1.35(c).
