Who We're Looking For
The Technical Implementation Consultant will be responsible for the design, configuration, testing, and supporting the full implementation of the RF-SMART Transportation Management System (TMS) product. With a strong understanding of transportation operations, freight management, and supply chain best practices, the Implementation Consultant will lead the implementation effort directly for our customers within the given and committed deadline.

What you'd do
- Diagnose transportation network challenges quickly and translate operational gaps into clear solution designs that set implementations up for success from day one.
- Serve as a Trusted Advisor across freight management, carrier management, multi-modal transportation, shipment visibility, and freight cost optimization - helping customers make confident decisions throughout their journey.
- Review and refine requirements, specifications, and business process recommendations to ensure proposed solutions align with customer goals and RF-SMART's implementation standards.
- Channel real customer experience back to the product team, translating field observations into actionable enhancement recommendations that strengthen the TMS for every future customer.
- Own the full implementation lifecycle as the primary customer contact - leading design, configuration, testing, training, and go-live - so customers cross the finish line on time and with confidence.
- Develop and deliver detailed implementation plans that keep internal teams and customers aligned, accountable, and moving forward.
- Diagnose and resolve configuration and data layer issues before they escalate, protecting project timelines and customer trust.
- Drive all project milestones from functional specification through go-live - including integration testing, user acceptance, and post-launch support.
- Stay engaged beyond go-live as the primary support resource during the critical early market period, giving customers the continuity they need to succeed with a new product.
- Own the long-term customer relationship from initial implementation through sustained success, building the kind of trust that turns customers into advocates.
What they want
- 5+ years of experience in transportation management, logistics operations, or supply chain.
- Hands-on experience with TMS platforms and transportation systems including freight visibility tools, EDI connectivity, and carrier integrations.
- Demonstrated ability to work at the technical layer of a software implementation - reading system logs, interpreting API payloads, performing complex field mapping, working with FreeMarker templates, writing custom rules, and troubleshooting integration issues independently.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to present clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
- Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent implementations independently without losing momentum on any of them.
- Must be located in Jacksonville, FL.
- Ability to travel 30% or more, with higher frequency expected during the initial launch and customer ramp period.
