About the Role:

As a Solutions Engineer you'll serve as the primary technical and business advisor for project
44's go-to-market motion into the 3PL, 4PL, and broader LSP segment. You bring credibility in the room that comes from having lived the technical and operational realities of a logistics provider.

This role is both strategic and hands-on. You will be embedded with dedicated LSP Account Executives - owning the technical discovery, solution design, integration scoping, and value quantification for complex LSP sales engagements. You'll translate operational pain into compelling platform demonstrations and build LSP-specific ROI models.

You are a storyteller, technologist, and logistics operator who can articulate how project
44 transforms the way LSPs serve their shipper customers - and back it up with architectural depth, operational fluency, and hands-on integration know-how.
The LSP Buyer Landscape

You'll be working with logistics service providers across the full spectrum of the industry - each with distinct operational models, technology stacks, and strategic priorities:

• Non-Asset 3PLs & Freight Brokers: Managing carrier networks at scale, with pressure to provide shipper-facing visibility without owning the assets.
• 4PLs & Lead Logistics Providers: Orchestrating multi-modal, multi-carrier, multi-region supply chains on behalf of enterprise shippers - where data normalization and control tower capabilities are critical.
• NVOCCs & Freight Forwarders: Navigating complex ocean, air, and customs workflows where milestone visibility and exception management define service quality.
• LTL Consolidators & Regional Carriers: Competing on reliability and transparency, with growing pressure to offer real-time tracking and API-accessible data to shipper portals.
• Managed Transportation Providers: Taking ownership of shipper TMS environments and carrier relationships, where project
  44 becomes the visibility and intelligence layer on top of their managed programs.

Key Accountabilities:

• LSP Discovery & Solution Design
  • Lead technical and business discovery using LSP-native vocabulary - carrier network management, managed transportation, freight audit & pay, control tower operations, customer SLA performance, white-label visibility portals, and TMS/WMS interoperability.
  • Translate complex, multi-stakeholder LSP challenges into scalable, high-impact project
    44 solutions - mapping customer pain to platform capabilities across the Movement product suite.
  • Serve as the internal and external authority on how project
    44 creates differentiated value for LSPs - from carrier connectivity and execution automation to customer-facing portals and Decision Intelligence reporting.
  • Bridge operational and technical stakeholders within LSP accounts - equally effective presenting to a VP of Operations and their integration architect, switching registers fluidly as needed.
  Integration Scoping & Technical Validation
  • Own the integration story in every deal - scope and demonstrate how project
    44 APIs and the carrier network connect into LSP tech stacks including TMS platforms…
