About traba

Traba is the AI operating layer for the industrial supply chain. We provide the labor to power your warehouses, distribution centers and production plants, and the intelligence to optimize them. Backed by Founders Fund.

About the role

You'll build Traba's product on top of AI agents —taking frontier models and existing agents and putting them to work across our staffing marketplace to automate the pipeline that sources, vets, matches, and places workers on millions of shifts.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years across frontend and backend: TypeScript, React/React Native, and Node.js or Python
  • Strong with APIs, distributed systems, PostgreSQL, and messaging (Kafka or RabbitMQ)
  • Hands-on experience integrating LLMs or agents into real product—prompting, tool wiring, evals. You've shipped AI features, even if you didn't build the platform
  • A track record of shipping scalable products in fast, ambiguous, early-stage environments
More about this role

Traba is building the AI operating system for the industrial supply chain - the network of warehouses, manufacturers, logistics providers, and workers behind the physical goods people rely on every day.

We started by tackling labor, supplying industrial businesses with consistent, reliable temporary workforces, and quickly became the fastest growing staffing company in America.

Since then, we've expanded our suite of AI agents to help logistics providers, manufacturers, 3PLs, and other industrial businesses fully automate their manual workflows, derive insights from their data streams, and transform their decision intelligence.

Our mission is to build a world where the global supply chain operates at peak efficiency.

We’re proud to be backed by some of the world’s best investors, including Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, and General Catalyst.
