Oway - Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer

Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer

Location: Hybrid — San Francisco or New York

Oway is building the first AI + ML driven carrier, a single company that exclusively works through a live decentralized network of thousands of trucks — using AI to fill unused space in trucks as an alternative to regular freight shipping to fix one of the most inefficient parts of our country’s economy.

We’re a small, fast-moving team backed by Y Combinator, and we’re looking for a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer to help us in our next phase of growth. You’ll work closely with our engineering team to build critical infrastructure for our country, working on cutting-edge projects that integrate with live telemetry systems of thousands of trucks and using AI to detour, route, and price their capacity.

What You’ll Do

• Own features end-to-end — from concept and design through deployment and monitoring.
• Work across our stack: Java (Spring) on the backend, TypeScript + React on the frontend, and MongoDB for data.
• Build new product features that directly impact how shipments are priced, matched, and tracked.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Sales, Carrier, and Operations teams to ship tools that make real-world impact.
• Help shape the technical culture of an early-stage startup — from architecture decisions to deployment practices.
• Write clean, maintainable code and move fast without breaking things that matter.

Who You Are

• 4+ years of experience as a full-stack or backend engineer.
• Strong command of Java, TypeScript, and React (or similar frameworks).
• Experience building and maintaining production systems end-to-end.
• Comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where you have ownership and autonomy.
• Excited by tough, unstructured problems — and motivated by impact over process.
• Strong communicator who thrives in small, cross-functional teams.
• Bonus: familiarity with machine learning, routing optimization, or logistics tech.
