About Product at DAT - Shaping the Future of Freight Analytics
At DAT, we’re building the go-to destination for freight pricing and insights. As the freight industry undergoes major shifts—driven by AI, autonomous vehicles, and political changes—we help our customers execute smarter, faster decisions. We follow leading product practices inspired by the Silicon Valley Product Group (SVPG), giving you the structure and support to drive meaningful outcomes. If you’re passionate about building great products and ready to make a difference in the freight industry, we’d love to talk.
The Opportunity
Convoy operates one of the largest freight marketplaces in the world, in an $800B+ industry that is rapidly transitioning from manual, phone-based workflows to algorithmically driven marketplaces. The platform must continuously clear large volumes of freight demand across a highly fragmented and diverse carrier base, under tight operational and timing constraints. Carrier Tech builds the systems where pricing/ auction models, bid decisions and negotiations intersect with real human behavior and imperfect information.
This role owns the carrier conversion loop—from marketplace impressions through converting view to bids, and bids to matches—and is responsible for improving marketplace clearing efficiency, including match rates, time-to-match, price variance, and perceived price fairness. The work focuses on shaping how data, pricing models, and negotiation mechanisms interact with human decision-making at scale. It operates in a high-noise environment where outcomes are only partially observable and causality must be inferred over time, requiring rigorous measurement, careful sequencing of experiments, and an understanding of system-wide effects rather than isolated metrics
What You’ll Do
•
Own the carrier conversion funnelDefine and improve the end-to-end journey from load-detail page views to confirmed matches, including auctions, bidding, negotiation, and manual booking flows.
•
Design new matching and booking mechanismsBuild and iterate on new auction and booking experiences that improve marketplace clearing while also increasing carrier utilization through better scheduling, routing awareness, and load sequencing. This includes exploring mechanisms that help carriers stitch together work more efficiently, not just win individual loads.
•
Partner closely with pricing and auctionsWork with data science to shape how pricing models, guardrails, and auction mechanics surface to carriers, translating complex systems into clear, usable product experiences.
•
Balance automation and manual workflowsImprove automated matching where it works well, and design efficient, scalable manual and negotiated paths where automation breaks down.
•
Drive conversion through experience designImprove carrier conversion rates by refining how pricing, negotiation, and match outcomes are presented across auctions and manual booking flows. Focus on transparency, perceived fairness, and decision confidence while reducing cognitive and emotional friction. Tie changes to clear funnel metrics (e.g., views → bids → matches) and evaluate impact rigorously.
•
Define success metrics and prioritization frameworksEstablish clear input and output metrics (e.g., impressions, bid rates, match rates, latency, carrier effort) and use them to drive sequencing and tradeoffs—not just post-hoc reporting.
•
Operate effectively with incomplete dataMake progress when signals are imperfect or anecdotal by combining data, operational insight, and structured judgment.
Collaborate across the marketplacePartner with Carrier Ops, Broker Tech, Carrier Trust & Fraud to ensure solutions scale and don’t create downstream friction.
•
Own delivery end to endWrite crisp problem statements, define MVPs, manage scope, and see work through launch, iteration, and impact assessment.
