At Axle, our mission is to make it easier to use data to build a better future for transportation and logistics. In the US, 70% of all goods are moved by trucks in a $1T industry. But with supply chain breakdowns, rising fuel prices, and labor shortages, business-as-usual isn’t working for anyone. Truckers are struggling and everyday Americans aren’t getting the goods they need.
We’re helping fix our supply chain by building core infrastructure that enables innovative solutions.
Axle is a universal data platform that combines data from hundreds of disparate sources from telematics providers, sensors, and more to enable new technologies in a critical industry.
We’re wrangling different data sources into a universal schema so that innovative tech companies can build new ways to optimize deliveries, reduce fuel costs, and make trucking a well-paid and sustainable career for the hardworking folks on our roads.
We know this won’t be easy. And that’s why we need teammates who are just as excited as us to build the future of transportation!
You’ll be joining a fast-moving and passionate team led by founders Dhruv Gupta and Jinyan Zang with experience in mobility and data science at Y Combinator, Harvard, and venture-backed startups.
Welcome to team Axle! Here’s how we like to work.
We believe the best ideas come from teammates with different approaches and experiences working together. That’s why we embrace diversity and the lively discussions that come from all of us contributing our strengths towards a common mission.
We are always available with just a quick tap on the shoulder so that we can collaborate and address new problems. We minimize time spent on formal meetings to maximize time spent on deep work and the informal chats that lead to Eureka insights!
We know we don’t get everything right on the first try and that we can learn much faster by getting customer feedback. So we follow the 80-20 rule to push out product and then iterate, iterate, and iterate.
At Axle, we’re looking for bold team-players who are excited to shape the future of transportation by building the core data infrastructure that everyone needs. Early employees will help shape both the product and the culture, and we have a few values that we’re really excited about.
