About the company
The Good Company - Springfield, MO ¡ [Onsite / Hybrid - TBD] ¡ Full-time ¡ [$50k-$80k] + benefits
The short version
Weâre a fast-growing 3PL that ships for e-commerce brands people love - and weâre rebuilding our data and tooling backbone from the ground up. Weâre hiring an engineer to help build it: someone who can design a data model, wire up an API, ship a tool, and stand behind how it works.
If your favorite thing in the world is looking at a slow, manual, duct-taped process and thinking âI could build something better by Fridayâ - keep reading.
Who we are
Good Company does good work for good people. Weâre a Springfield, Missouri third-party logistics company that our e-commerce clients treat as an extension of their own brand. We just moved into a new facility, our volume roughly doubles every year, and our leadership team has made a real bet: that great tooling and AI, in the hands of people who care, is how a 3PL wins the next five years.
That bet is this role.
What youâll actually do
Youâll join a small Information team in the middle of its most exciting chapter - replacing spreadsheets, legacy BI, and vendor workarounds with a modern platform we own:
- Build internal tools people use the next day - dashboards, ops tools, and client-facing reporting on our stack (TypeScript, Next.js, Supabase/Postgres, BigQuery, Vercel).
- Connect systems that donât talk to each other - our WMS, billing, accounting, carrier, and Slack ecosystems all have APIs; youâll make them one system instead of ten.
- Solve problems worth real dollars - automated reporting, billing-error detection, shipping-anomaly monitoring. The problems here arenât hypothetical; catching them is worth six figures a year.
- Turn hours into software - every recurring manual process in the business is a candidate for automation, and youâll have the mandate to go after them.
- Own things end to end - you scope it, build it, ship it, and stand behind it. No ticket queue, no committee.
Who you are
We hire for traits first, rĂŠsumĂŠ second:
- A problem-solver who happens to use technology - youâre drawn to the itch of an unsolved problem more than to any particular tool.
- Strong on fundamentals - you understand whatâs happening under the tools you use: how the data is modeled, what the API actually returns, why the query is slow, what breaks when the request fails.
- Fluent with AI, and accountable for it - you use AI to build and think faster, but you can read, debug, and explain every line it produces. If you canât say how it works, you donât ship it.
- A finisher - you ship. Youâd rather deliver something real this week than something perfect never.
- Curious - you want to know why the number is wrong, not just that it is. (Ask us about our core values - curiosity is one of them, and we mean it.)
- An owner - when something you built breaks, youâre the first to know and the first to fix it.
- A translator - you can sit with an account manager or a CFO, understand what they actually need, and come back with something better than what they asked for.
