Data Scientist

GenLogs is a transportation-technology company building the next generation of truck intelligence. Through a nationwide network of sensors and proprietary data, we deliver real-time, high-fidelity insights into freight movement for commercial supply-chain customers and public-sector agencies. Our mission is to strengthen America’s logistics backbone, combat freight fraud and cargo theft, and provide near-instantaneous visibility into commercial motor vehicle activity across major freight corridors. By operating at the intersection of edge sensing, computer vision, AI-driven analytics, and large-scale field deployment, GenLogs is transforming how transportation data is captured, secured, and commercialized.ABOUT THE DATA TEAMThe Data Science team at GenLogs transforms raw observational data from the Trident sensor network into high-value intelligence used by law-enforcement agencies, regulators, ports, and private-sector freight operators. We build models, analytics, and measurement frameworks that enable vehicle detection, entity resolution, behavioral insights, fraud and theft indicators, compliance signals, and network-wide operational performance metrics. Our work sits at the center of the freight intelligence platform, shaping how billions of roadside observations become actionable information. We partner closely with Engineering and Product to deploy algorithms at scale and with Go-to-Market teams to define customer-facing analyses that drive real operational outcomes. The team blends statistical rigor, ML capability, and domain expertise to create a new standard for freight intelligence in the United States.ABOUT THE JOBYou’re a problem solver at heart. You thrive at the intersection of engineering, math, and machine learning, and you’re motivated by questions that don’t have obvious answers. You bring a background in engineering, computer science, physics, applied math, or another hard science discipline, and you enjoy applying that technical foundation to real-world ML challenges.You are energized by ambiguity, obsessed with understanding how complex systems behave, and capable of breaking down big problems into tractable iterations. You ask great questions, validate assumptions with data, and are relentless in your pursuit of signal over noise.WHAT YOU’LL DOBuild machine-learning systems that power some of the most advanced logistics intelligence products in the industryAnalyze large, noisy datasets from cameras, OCR, detections, and geospatial pipelines to uncover actionable patternsDesign and evaluate algorithms for truck re-identification, geospatial clustering, equipment classification, OCR text labeling, anomaly detection, and moreCollaborate with engineering and data engineering teams to scale models from prototype to productionWork closely with product teams to deeply understand customer needs and translate them into modeling and analytics initiativesApply scientific thinking to continuously test, iterate, and refine approaches as new data becomes availableREQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS2–5 years of professional experience in Data Science, Machine Learning, or Software EngineeringTechnical foundation in engineering, physics, math, computer science, or related applied fieldsExperience deploying or building models using:Machine learning fundamentals (classification, clustering, time-series, anomaly detection)Computer vision (OCR, object detection, embeddings)Geospatial data analysis (mapping, clustering, location intelligence)Association/sequence pattern mining, feature engineering, or algorithm developmentExperience working with cloud-based data tooling (Snowflake, AWS) — not required but nice to haveStrong programming skills in Python and comfort with modern data/ML libraries (PyTorch, Pandas, Scikit-learn, etc.)Comfort working with real-world messy datasets (sensor data, imagery, telematics, transactional freight data)WHO WILL SUCCEED HEREYou will love this role if you are:Relentlessly curious — you ask “why?” repeatedly until you reach the rootTechnically fearless — not afraid to dive into large datasets, new ML techniques, or unfamiliar codebasesImpact-driven — you want your models to power real, high-stakes decisions in a massive industryComfortable with ambiguity — our data is large, messy, and evolving, and that excites youCollaborative — you enjoy working with engineers, data teams, and product stakeholders to deliver real customer valueUS SALARY RANGEGenLogs establishes compensation based on role, level, experience, and location.
