Founding Product Support Engineer at Fleetworks

Every year, companies spend over a trillion dollars moving freight across the U.S. — but the system for matching trucks with jobs is still slow, manual, and fragmented. FleetWorks is fixing that. We’re building AI voice and email agents that transform the chaotic freight booking process into a modern, intelligent marketplace. Our agents replace the endless phone calls, texts, and emails and match truckers who want to get paid with loads that need to be moved. We’re hiring a Founding Product Support Engineer to build FleetWorks’ technical support function from the ground up. You’ll be the front line of defense for our customers—triaging issues, debugging across our stack, resolving tickets independently, and creating the run-books and processes that will scale as we grow. This is a 0-to-1 role based in Chicago or SF, with focus on supporting our EST and CST customers.
