Logistics Specialist III (Hybrid)

About the Role

Uber Freight is seeking a Logistics Specialist III to support transportation operations for a key customer account, with a primary focus on rail operations.

In this role, you’ll work closely with customers, railroads, carriers, shipping sites, and internal teams to manage shipment activity, resolve issues, and provide operational support throughout the transportation lifecycle. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys problem-solving, working in a fast-paced environment, and building strong working relationships across multiple partners.

The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, organized, customer-focused, and comfortable managing a high volume of communication and operational tasks throughout the day.

• Monitor shipment activity and operational KPIs while identifying trends or service concerns
• Help resolve operational issues between customers, carriers, rail providers, and internal teams
• Maintain accurate shipment updates, operational records, and system documentation
• Identify process improvement opportunities and communicate operational gaps when identified
• Manage a high volume of emails, shipment updates, and operational communication while prioritizing urgent requests
