Software Development Milpitas, California 201–500 employees Founded 2015 Privately Held

Locus builds an agentic TMS that automates logistics decisions across delivery networks, now owned by Ingka Group (IKEA's parent). The stack—Java/Spring, Kafka, Redis, Kubernetes, multi-cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure)—supports real-time dispatch and route optimization at enterprise scale. Current hiring is heavily weighted toward senior and staff engineers (14 of 21 open roles), with a notable CISO search underway, signaling both platform maturation and security-critical customer demands in CPG and retail supply chains.

About Locus

Locus provides a composable transportation management platform serving 300+ enterprises across 30+ countries in retail, CPG, and logistics. The product suite includes an agentic TMS, dispatch management, and DiSCO (a logistics operating system for autonomous multi-channel orchestration). Decision automation is governed by six control mechanisms—explainability, traceability, evaluation, autonomy levels, execution sandbox, and human-in-the-loop—allowing customers to define policies without code. Founded in 2015 and acquired by Ingka Group, the company operates from Milpitas with a 201–500-person team and advertises typical enterprise go-live timelines in weeks rather than years.
