What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Engineer - Special Projects position at Nash?
About Nash
Nash is building the AI layer for global logistics. Our software already powers operations for some of the largest retailers, grocery chains, and restaurant networks in the world. This isn't "AI in theory" - It's running live with major retailers, grocery chains, and restaurants powering day-to-day logistics at scale.
The Role
We're looking for an Ex-Founder/Founding Engineer who wants to build from scratch again. Someone who can turn customer pain into shipping code, move fast, and own outcomes end-to-end.
This role is a mix of building core systems and working directly with customers. Some days you'll be deep in architecture and scaling decisions; other days you'll be on the ground making sure our software actually works in real-world workflows.
What You'll Do
Supply chains run the world. At Nash, you won't just be writing software - you'll be building the systems that move goods everywhere. Your code will touch real workflows at some of the biggest companies in the world.
More About Nash.AI
Nash is building the logistics infrastructure for the internet
Last mile is a $500B industry powering digital commerce but managed largely with self managed API integrations. Nash approaches last mile orchestration with information completeness solutions from checkout, courier management, customer engagement, and post-purchase experience. Doing this enables merchants and customers to capture immense efficiencies, drive better customer experience, reliability and business outcomes.
We are working towards a mission of processing a double digit percentage of every physical last-mile transaction. We achieve this by providing top of the market modules for each step of the customer journey and leveraging the network effects from having more information that allows traditional competitors to collaborate. It’s a big mission, but we are already seeing strong market pull as we are already serving some of the largest retailers in the world like Walmart, 7-Eleven and Woolworths.
Nash was founded in 2021 by Mahmoud Ghulman (2x Founder, MIT) and Aziz Alghunaim (2x Founder, 2x YC, Ex-Palantir, MIT) and has raised funding from top investors, including Y-Combinator and a16z, to build the world’s best logistics infrastructure platform. We are based in SF.
