Packfleet (https://packfleet.com/) | Senior Engineer (Routing) | Full time, £90-110k + meaningful equity | Hybrid, Onsite | London, UK | VISA

Packfleet is a fast growing seed-stage delivery startup based in London, founded by early employees of Monzo. We're out to make fully electric next-day deliveries the new normal, while improving every aspect of the delivery experience using modern tech. We're looking for a Senior engineer with routing or optimization experience, to join our small team and help build our in-house vehicle router in Rust. You would be the first engineer focused exclusively on routing and get to own and develop a core piece of tech in the company.

Some of the most interesting problems we’re working on at the moment are:

- Using a 3D distance matrix to generate routes that are time-of-day accurate.

- Taking into account the charge levels of our 100% electric fleet.

- Scaling time-windowed deliveries to thousands per day while maintaining efficiency.

- Incorporating on-demand same-day deliveries and address changes into our routes.

- Simulating demand and scale so we’re always one step ahead of our growth.
