This position addresses the increasing complexity of hybrid data environments, the need for real-time data reliability, and the demand for secure, high-performance systems that support business decision-making.

Provide 24x7x365 support coverage as part of a shared operations model
Resolve incidents, service requests, and change orders in a timely, high-quality manner
Act as a technical escalation point for database-related issues
Ensure clear communication and status updates for all assigned work

5. Enable data integrity, security, and best practices

Apply established methodologies and governance standards across database environments
Maintain CI/CD processes within cloud data platforms to support consistent deployments
Ensure security, compliance, and data protection best practices are enforced
Continuously evaluate and improve operational processes to prevent recurring issues

Strong problem-solving mindset with persistence in diagnosing complex issues
Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment

About Roadrunner

Roadrunner is for ambitious, smart people who excel at execution over talking about it, and who would rather invent the next standard in freight than accept the status quo.

We are looking for the Best of the Best. Action driven leaders who want to be part of real change and help design the future of LTL in the U.S. This is a place where high performers can grow, influence outcomes, and make an impact while working directly with executives and smart people from across industries.

We bring a winner mindset. We take ownership, raise the bar, and measure ourselves by results. We Run Safe. We Run Smart. We Run Together. These principles create an environment of high standards, clear ownership, and direct collaboration. We trust data over intuition, move with urgency, and hold each other accountable because winning requires it.

Roadrunner exists to prove that LTL can be better than the industry has settled for. To be the best means we need to think bigger, look outside the box, and question every assumption: too many handoffs, limited visibility, and the quiet belief that “this is just how it works.” We rejected that story. We built a proprietary Smart Network™ for direct, long haul, metro to metro service that delivers fewer touches, faster transit, real time visibility, and genuine accountability. We are the most tech forward company in LTL, and we are not finished widening the gap.

The foundation is already strong. Recognized as one of Built In Chicago’s Best Large Places to Work. Earning top marks for improvement, quality, and service. The real opportunity is still ahead: helping invent what comes next.

If you want to be evaluated among the Best of the Best and help set the new standard in LTL, we should talk.
