Global freight forwarding and customs logistics for international supply chains
Expeditors operates a non-asset-based logistics network spanning 350+ locations across 100+ countries, handling air/ocean freight consolidation, customs clearance, and distribution. The tech stack is enterprise-standard (Oracle, Java, Angular, Kafka on AWS) with no active adopts or replacements—a stable, operations-focused posture matching their logistics-heavy hiring: 330 roles in logistics vs. 5 in engineering signals this is a service-delivery organization optimizing execution rather than building core tech.
