About Pallet

Pallet builds the AI systems that move the physical economy. The world. Backed by General Catalyst.

About the role

Pallet is building AI infrastructure for logistics: systems that coordinate real warehouses, freight networks, and supply chains. We’re looking for a founding engineer to build the security and platform foundations of the company from the ground up. This is a hands-on software engineering role. You will write production code, design infrastructure, and establish the systems that make Pallet secure, reliable, and scalable. The decisions you make today will become the defaults the company operates on for years.

What they're looking for

  • 6+ years of software, backend, infrastructure, or platform engineering experience
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals and a track record of shipping production systems
  • Experience building security-sensitive systems, including authentication, authorization, secrets management, or infrastructure security
  • Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure, containers, networking, and distributed systems
  • Experience designing platforms, tooling, or abstractions that other engineers depend on
  • Comfortable moving from a blank document to a production deployment with minimal oversight
More about this role

Pallet is building AI Agents to transform the physical economy — a $12 trillion global industry. We’ve raised $50M from top investors, including General Catalyst, Bessemer Venture Partners, and Bain Capital Ventures. In under two years, we’ve achieved 700% revenue growth and are just getting started.

Our mission is to increase the efficiency of the global supply chain by automating the manual workflows that slow supply chain teams down — from scheduling and appointment setting to data entry and load management. Our flagship platform provides end-to-end visibility, control, and optimization, while our newest product, CoPallet, introduces AI Agents that can understand and execute requests in real time and integrate directly with customer systems.

As companies across the physical economy look to generative AI to drive efficiency, many are turning to Pallet to lead the way. With deep supply chain expertise and cutting-edge AI capabilities, we’re positioned to build the next $10B company powering the physical economy.

Join us and work alongside leaders from Google, DoorDash, YC, and more to shape the future of supply chain technology.
