Traditional trucking companies still run on paper, emails, phone calls, and snail mail. They’re inefficient and bloated. The pressure of low margins suffocates the truckers who actually do the work.
Our software cuts out the inefficiencies, and we pass the savings through to our truckers. Instead of paper-pushers and endless phone calls, they get an end-to-end solution: customer management, load coordination, automated invoicing, a real-time financial dashboard, a single place to manage their business.
A blog post that goes deeper into why we started this company: https://medium.com/@jinstedge/truenorth-b42437f1dc03
We're a team of 50, and proud to say the majority of us are female or non-binary. We come from a wide range of backgrounds. We don't just value diversity, we cherish it. And we mean it.
Look around. (No really — do it!) What can you see that didn’t make its way to you in a truck?
Our modern world runs on trucking. But unfortunately, the industry is rife with raw deals, poor conditions, and low pay.
TrueNorth is on a mission to overhaul the trucking industry by focusing on the people who actually do the work — the drivers. Our team, made up of alums Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Tesla, Facebook, YC, and more, is building software that will become the operating system of trucking. We’ll succeed by automating busywork, cutting out middlemen, and ensuring that the people who do the lion’s share of the work take home the lion’s share of the profits.
We’re looking for a Sr. Product Manager to help us build something that’s never been built before, in an industry with punishingly complex operations and rapidly-shifting technology. If we succeed, we’ll help millions of truckers double their take-home pay.
