Founded in 2017, Gatik is the leader in autonomous middle-mile logistics. We deliver goods safely and efficiently using medium-duty trucks with a focus on short-haul, B2B logistics for Fortune 500 customers such as Walmart and Loblaw. Gatik enables our customers to optimize their hub-and-spoke operations and enhance service levels and product flow across multiple locations while reducing labor costs and meeting unprecedented expectations for faster deliveries.

About the role:

As an Autonomous Vehicle Operator, you will safely operate vehicles for on-time in-route customer deliveries.

This role is onsite in the Sherman, Texas area!

What you'll do:

Ensure safe, reliable operation of class 3-7 (less than 33,001-pound GVWR, with or without air brakes) box truck delivery vehicles, in manual modes while keeping other drivers and operators, the public, and the vehicle safe

Manually drive the vehicles on assigned, consistent routes to gather route data in support of moving toward future state autonomous operations

Display customer service orientation and act as an ambassador for the company toward customers and the public

Ensure vehicles arrive at pick-up and drop-off locations on time and the integrity of goods is retained on each journey

Assist with safe, secure loading and unloading of customer goods using equipment such as pallet jacks, carts, dollies, lift gates, etc.

Update the dispatch team on shift and route status

Record and review data via spreadsheets and other business-related applications

Ensure the operation and safety of trucks by daily routine checks (monitoring fluid levels, checking tire pressure, hose connections, etc.)

Perform ad-hoc projects such as truck delivery to new locations, testing and/or installing new equipment, etc.

Collaborate with teams to follow collection and drop-off procedures on each journey

Learn and adhere to company standard operating procedures (SOPs) and ensure compliance with safe operations standards

What we're looking for:

3 years (or more) experience operating straight trucks up to 26-35 ft long in North America with a valid Class A (CDL) driver's license.

Insurability by our underwriting, including clean driving record (personal and professional) and background check

Must be willing to work flexible hours on both weekdays and weekends

Customer relationship management experience

Ability to be meticulous, organized, and proactive

Strong verbal, written, and interpersonal skills

Positive, collegial relationships with co-workers and customers

Ability to use smartphone applications and willingness to provide your own mobile device

Working Conditions: Due to the nature of the position and daily inspections of the vehicle, this job often requires physical work including, but not limited to, bending, stooping, and various operation tasks that may require lifting and carrying up to 50 lbs., climbing a ladder and operating a manual pallet jack with up to 400 lbs.
