Full Job Description

Technology platforms are critical to every aspect of business performance. As Roadrunner continues to scale and evolve, the organization relies on a growing portfolio of third-party applications that support operations, employee productivity, customer interactions, and business decision-making.

The Jr. Application Engineer plays an important role in maintaining the stability, usability, and effectiveness of these systems. Working alongside experienced technology professionals, this position helps ensure business-critical applications remain secure, accessible, and optimized to support organizational needs.

Success in this role means becoming a trusted contributor within the Technology team—resolving issues efficiently, improving documentation and user adoption, supporting system governance, and helping create a seamless experience for application users across the organization. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career technology professional seeking hands-on exposure to enterprise application management, systems administration, and IT operations.

2. Strengthen System Governance and Security

Assist in administering user accounts, permissions, and access controls across supported platforms.
Support the implementation and enforcement of application security policies and procedures.
Help ensure compliance with audit requirements through accurate user access reviews and documentation.
Participate in ongoing efforts to improve application security, governance, and operational controls.
Maintain data integrity and confidentiality within supported environments.

3. Improve Documentation and Knowledge Sharing

Partner with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to develop and maintain application documentation.
Update knowledge base articles, support documentation, and user guides to improve issue resolution.
Contribute to training materials that help internal and external users maximize application effectiveness.
Capture lessons learned, system changes, and process updates to support organizational knowledge retention.
Promote self-service resources that improve user adoption and reduce recurring support requests.

4. Drive Operational Excellence

Assist with application configurations, updates, testing, and implementation activities.
Support technology initiatives and projects that enhance business processes and systems capabilities.
Identify opportunities to streamline workflows and improve operational efficiency.
Collaborate across Technology and business teams to ensure solutions align with organizational objectives.
Develop a strong understanding of the organization's application ecosystem and technology standards.

5. Build Technical Expertise and Professional Growth

Learn from experienced engineers and technology leaders through mentorship and hands-on experience.
Develop foundational expertise in enterprise applications, systems administration, and IT operations.
Stay current on emerging technologies, platform capabilities, and industry best practices.
Participate in training and professional development opportunities to expand technical skills.
Contribute to a collaborative, high-performance team environment focused on continuous improvement.

What you bring

You communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

About Roadrunner

We’re not just moving freight; we’re reimagining long-haul shipping. Our Smart Network™ offers more direct long-haul metro-to-metro routes than any other nationwide LTL carrier in the United States, with service extending into Canada and Mexico and terminals across 40+ metro markets. Powered by AI and machine learning, our operations platform ensures real-time tracking, custodial control, and full shipment visibility. With driver teams executing over-the-road (OTR) moves — and no freight moving on rail — customers experience industry-leading transit times, minimal rehandling, and dramatically reduced risk of loss or damage.

Our 900+ owner-operators benefit from scheduled freight, fewer touches by design, consistent long-haul density, and a differentiated metro-to-metro model that creates predictable earning opportunities.

This precision and performance have earned Roadrunner national recognition by over 3,000 shippers, and was ranked this year #1 in Operations, #1 in Technology, and #1 in Value in the Quest for Quality Awards, as well as honors as a Top 100 Trucking Company by Inbound Logistics and a Top Tier Service Carrier by Mastio.

We’re growing fast. Roadrunner is building something special with great people, a winning culture and a differentiated service offering in the marketplace. Join us today to grow your career!

We Run Safe. We Run Smart. We Run Together.
