Head of Logistics Digitalisation – Road Freight (FTL/LTL) (m/f/d)

About A-Log

Large logistics groups build their own AI departments. Mid-sized forwarders usually can't. A-Log Technology is based in Vienna and works with forwarders across Europe. We build AI solutions for them that are affordable, explainable and usable at the dispatch desk from day one.

We have two products. CarrierCheck24, available today, helps forwarders verify carriers against phantom-carrier fraud and documents every check in an audit-proof way. Way2Cargo, our digital dispatcher, is in development, and we are shaping it together with pilot customers. Our principle: the human decides, the software prepares.

Your role

You bring the practitioner's view of European road freight into everything we build. You make sure our products fit how FTL and LTL operations actually run, from order to invoice.

What you'll do

• Map transport processes end to end: order intake, carrier selection, execution, documents (CMR consignment note, POD) and freight invoicing.
• Translate these processes into clear product requirements, especially where documents, TMS data and invoicing don't line up today.
• Shape how our products connect to the TMS and the other tools at the dispatch desk.
• Assess how our products should work alongside freight exchanges, transport platforms and real-time visibility data.
• Work with Way2Cargo pilot customers to map their dispatch processes and define how success is measured.
• Support sales and customer conversations as the person who has "been there".
• Help shape our roadmap with the CTO and CEO, and keep us focused on what forwarders really need.

What you bring

• At least 5 years of experience in European road freight, at a forwarder, carrier, shipper or logistics software company, with hands-on FTL and/or LTL exposure.
• Deep knowledge of transport operations from order to cash, including CMR/POD handling, freight settlement and invoicing.
• Hands-on experience with TMS, whether through rollout, configuration, integration or daily use.
• A good overview of the European platform landscape: freight exchanges such as TIMOCOM, transport and procurement platforms such as Transporeon, and real-time visibility (RTV) solutions. You should know how forwarders actually use them day to day.
• A proven track record in digitalisation projects, e.g. document digitalisation, eCMR, telematics or process automation.
• The ability to explain operational reality clearly to developers and to customers.
• Fluent English and German

Nice to have

• Familiarity with other european languages (much of our market is in the DACH region).
• Familiarity with CMR liability and claims handling.
• Experience with carrier vetting, cargo fraud prevention or insurance claims.
• Familiarity with eCMR / eFTI developments or AI in operations.
• A network among mid-sized forwarders in Europe.

What we offer

• Attractive equity: a real stake in what we build (details in the interview).
• Fully remote work from anywhere in Germany, Austria or Switzerland.
• Direct influence on two products at an early stage, with short decision paths.
• A team that values directness, focus and honesty with customers.
• The minimum gross annual salary under applicable collective agreement is €60,000.00. We are clearly willing to pay more, depending on experience. We'll discuss your actual package in the interview.
