Product Engineer

About Dockware Dockware is relentlessly driving toward the error free dock. Every day across the world, millions of freight handlers scan, count, inspect, measure, photograph, label, read, and transcribe shipment data tens of millions of times, and errors are the rule, not the exception. Every error on the dock ripples across the rest of the value chain, leading to inventory management discrepancies, misroutes, under/over pricing, disputes, sub-optimal asset utilization, and many flavors of claims and chargebacks. As logistics underpins roughly 10% of global GDP, even marginal improvements at the dock translate into massive gains for businesses, workers, and consumers everywhere. Using computer vision, edge hardware, and real-time ML systems, Dockware captures dimensions, condition, and identifiers for every shipment - in seconds. That data becomes a verifiable digital twin: a continuously updated, shareable record that moves with the shipment from origin to destination.‍ Our platform integrates directly into existing workflows, eliminating manual data entry, barcode dependency, and costly delays - while turning messy, real-world freight into clean, actionable data. The result is a system that reduces disputes, improves operational accuracy, and unlocks better decisions across the supply chain. For the full company vision, read here. Dockware has deep Midwestern roots. Jerks, credit hogs, and elitists need not apply. We come to work and give everything because we know our teammates are doing the same. Similarly, the logistics professionals we serve make modern life possible – full stop. They deserve tech that works and real humans who answer the phone.
