About the role

  • We are looking for an AI Engineer who thrives in one of the most demanding environments in technology: legacy supply chains, enterprise customers, startup speed, and chaotic real-world operations.
  • At Vorto, AI Engineers are builder-owners who transform ambiguous, messy operational problems into intelligent, automated systems that materially change how physical goods move across America.
  • This role blends deep ML expertise with practical engineering: roughly 70% hands-on software development and 30% advanced model development and integration.

Responsibilities

  • Design and develop production level backend software used by our automated agents.
  • Design and deploy AI agents capable of task execution and decision-making, leveraging retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to improve accuracy and relevance.
  • Develop predictive models for commodity demand, supply forecasting, ETA predictions, and delay detection.
  • Optimize logistics simulations and market algorithms to improve operational efficiency.
  • You will work across the full AI stack - from model training and agent design to retrieval pipelines and high-performance inference - to architect solutions that automate decisions previously handled by entire teams.
  • AI Engineers at Vorto own outcomes end-to-end, recover fast, and build systems that scale beyond themselves.
  • If you want to build AI that actually runs the real world - not demos, not prototypes, but production systems moving billions in freight - this is the role.
  • At VORTO we are committed to developing our employees and providing them exciting opportunities to grow and prosper in their careers.
