About the role

The Director of Ops & Logistics will design and own the fulfillment network of Pickle's marketplace. This is a zero-to-one buildout: the systems, networks, and partnerships that sit underneath every transaction don't fully exist yet. You will build them.

What they're looking for

  • Experience with dual-sided marketplaces or peer-to-peer platforms, understands supply-side and demand-side dynamics simultaneously

  • Track record of reducing cost per transaction meaningfully: through carrier negotiation, routing optimization, or network design
  • NYC-based and in-office, this is a hands-on, on-the-ground role
