ABOUT US
LGX is a Houston-based freight brokerage that moves the freight most companies won't touch — heavy haul, oversized loads, and complex international project cargo for clients in oil & gas, construction, and industrial sectors. We're not a massive corporation. We're a sharp, fast-moving team that makes quick decisions, values results over process, and is investing seriously in AI to outpace the competition.
THE ROLE
We're looking for a part/full-time developer (20-40 hrs/week) who gets genuinely excited about building AI-powered tools that people actually use. Not demos. Not slide decks. Real tools that our team opens every morning.
Your first project: a Microsoft Outlook Add-in powered by the Claude API (Anthropic) that helps our operations team draft and rewrite freight emails instantly — with our company's communication rules and tone baked directly into the AI. It's a focused, well-scoped project with a clear outcome. After that, there's no shortage of interesting problems to solve.
If you've been looking for a role where you can build something meaningful, work directly with decision-makers, and see the impact of your work in real time — this is it.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Hands-on experience building production tools with LLM APIs — Claude, OpenAI, or similar. Strong JavaScript and TypeScript skills — this is non-negotiable for Office Add-in work. Solid understanding of Node.js, React, and REST API integration. Real experience crafting system prompts that perform reliably in a business environment, not just in a sandbox. Someone who communicates proactively, hits deadlines, and doesn't need to be managed.
BONUS POINTS
Prior Microsoft Office Add-in development. Background in logistics, freight, or supply chain. Experience with Make, n8n, or Zapier. Python skills for scripting or backend work.
COMPENSATION
$30–$35/hr depending on experience. We pay on time, every time. This engagement has strong potential to grow for the right person — we're building for the long term.
Pay: $30.00 - $35.00 per hour
Benefits:
• Paid time off
Work Location: In person
