About the job
About Ofload and Our Mission
The FreightTech sector is an exhilarating domain, presenting a unique opportunity to revolutionize one of the largest industries worldwide. The Australian freight market is valued at $66 billion, yet it remains largely analogue with significant inefficiencies; for instance, 30% of truck journeys are made with no cargo. The networks are opaque, data is disjointed, and smaller transport operators struggle to compete with larger entities.
At Ofload, we are dedicated to transforming the freight industry and ushering it into the digital age. We harness technology, data, and strategic collaborations to link an expanding portfolio of prestigious clients with efficient smaller transport operators. By minimizing empty truck journeys, enhancing visibility, and optimizing supply chains, we are leading the way towards smarter, more sustainable, and efficient operations that benefit both businesses and the environment.
This is more than logistics; it's FreightTech, a technology-driven transformation of an industry that supports the economy and impacts everyone’s daily life.

The Role:
We are on the lookout for a Senior Data Engineer to lead the development of our data platform from inception, determining how data is structured, flows, and ultimately influences decision-making across our organization.
This is a genuine zero-to-one opportunity. You will transform fragmented, multi-source data into a scalable, real-time data warehouse that supports everything from business intelligence reporting to advanced analytics and AI initiatives.
Your role will not be limited to following handed-down requirements; you will define the data strategy, take ownership of key metrics, and construct the pipelines that drive commercial success. Collaborating closely with Product, Engineering, Finance, and BI teams, you will be central to how the business interprets and utilizes data.
