Senior Software Engineer

About Riverstone Logistics

Riverstone Logistics (RLX) is a big and bulky supply chain powerhouse delivering seamless final mile, middle mile, warehousing, fulfillment, and storage solutions through a nationally integrated platform.

Founded in 2017 by five partners who believed logistics could be built around something bigger than moving freight, we began with furniture delivery and grew into a nationwide provider serving complex supply chains across the United States.

We are a purpose-driven company. We exist to use our God-given talents and opportunities to love our neighbors, serve our communities, and improve our industry. That purpose shapes how we lead our teams, how we partner with our customers, and how we take ownership of every delivery.

Our people — who we call Extra Milers — bring genuine integrity and care to every mile. If you are a recruiter who takes the candidate experience seriously, works with urgency, and wants the people you hire to be part of something that genuinely matters, we want to meet you.
