Senior - Customer Engineer/Forward Deployed Engineer

At FourKites we have the opportunity to tackle complex challenges with real-world impacts. Whether it's medical supplies from Cardinal Health or groceries for Walmart, the FourKites platform helps customers operate global supply chains that are efficient, agile and sustainable. Join a team of curious problem solvers that celebrates differences, leads with empathy and values inclusivity. As a Senior AI Engineer, you'll join a 10-person team focused on data integrations (shippers and carriers moving in and out of the FourKites ecosystem) and our active AI agent workstreams — including a support automation agent handling 60-70% of customer tickets, a voice agent that calls carriers to gather and update information, and an end-to-end carrier onboarding agent (email + voice). You'll work on features end to end (~75-80% backend, ~20-25% frontend) using Python, Java/GoLang, agentic frameworks like LangGraph, React, Redis and PostgreSQL. You'll develop products that change the logistics landscape for some of the biggest corporations in the world, and work closely with our US team and customers to shape the future of the industry. What you’ll be doing: Design, build, and productionize AI agents/workflows (e.g., support automation, voice, and onboarding agents) using agentic frameworks such as LangGraph Develop, test, and maintain backend applications in Python and Java or GoLang Write clean, efficient, and well-documented code across the full SDLC — development, QA, and release Design and implement data models and database schemas Collaborate with the frontend team to integrate the backend with the user interface Perform code reviews and ensure code quality standards are met Troubleshoot and debug applications, including AI agent workflows in production Work with the DevOps team to deploy and manage applications in production (Kubernetes) Continuously learn and stay up to date with new technologies and industry trends, particularly in the AI/agentic space About the team: Our

At FourKites we have the opportunity to tackle complex challenges with real-world impacts. Whether it's medical supplies from Cardinal Health or groceries for Walmart, the FourKites platform helps customers operate global supply chains that are efficient, agile and sustainable. Join a team of curious problem solvers that celebrates differences, leads with empathy and values inclusivity. As a Senior Data Scientist, you will build and own machine learning models that power core prediction problems across the FourKites platform — including ETA/ATA forecasting and message-based status extraction. You will work end-to-end, from data pipeline to production deployment and monitoring, turning noisy real-world logistics data into models that run at scale and directly move the needle on customer outcomes. You will work closely with product, engineering, and operations teams, hands-on building and shipping models yourself while also guiding the technical direction of other data scientists on the team. What you'll be doing: Design, build, and productionize ML models for problems like ETA/ATA prediction, using regression, classification, and time-series forecasting techniques Develop NLP/LLM-based extraction pipelines for message-based ETA and status updates (text extraction, entity recognition) Own models end-to-end: data pipeline → training → deployment → monitoring → retraining Work with noisy, real-world logistics and supply chain data (GPS pings, check calls, carrier data) rather than clean, pre-processed datasets Diagnose gaps between offline evaluation performance and live production accuracy, and drive fixes Build and maintain automated training/retraining pipelines using orchestration tools such as Airflow Set up and maintain model monitoring and observability (e.g., Grafana) to catch drift and degradation proactively Replace manual or rule-based processes with ML-driven automation (e.g., automating manual check calls) Translate model performance improvements into busin
