Job Overview

We are hiring a Dispatcher to help lead day-to-day autonomous trucking operations out of our Lancaster, TX terminal.

This is more than a traditional dispatch role. We are looking for someone with initiative, strong operational judgment, and a clear point of view on how a high-performing operation should run. You will coordinate crews, trucks, trailers, and active missions in real time, while also helping identify gaps, improve processes, and raise the standard of execution across the operation.

The strongest candidate will be someone who does not wait to be told what needs to happen. They recognize problems early, make sound decisions under pressure, and have the vision to help take a growing operation to the next level.

Key Responsibilities

• Own day-of execution across crews, trucks, trailers, and active missions
• Identify operational risks early and take action before they become larger issues
• Make real-time decisions around mission execution, fleet health, and operational priorities
• Look beyond the immediate shift to identify recurring gaps and opportunities to improve how the operation runs
• Develop and implement stronger processes, handoffs, and operating standards
• Monitor active missions, autonomy health, and fleet status in real time
• Coordinate across operations, engineering, fleet readiness, safety, and commercial teams
• Serve as a first line of response and escalation for technical and operational issues
• Maintain accurate mission records, logs, delays, and shift handoffs
• Communicate with customers, sites, and carrier partners when operational changes occur
• Lead, coach, and develop Fleet Specialists
• Help raise performance, accountability, and operational consistency across the team

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience in dispatch, fleet operations, mission control, or a technical operations environment
• Demonstrated initiative and ability to take ownership without waiting for direction
• Strong operational judgment and ability to make defensible decisions under pressure
• Ability to identify process gaps and develop practical solutions
• Demonstrated leadership ability, including coaching or supervising others
• Strong vision for how to improve and scale an operation
• Linux, scripting, coding, or computer terminal experience
• Ability to troubleshoot hardware and software issues
• Strong real-time coordination and prioritization skills
• Familiarity with DOT and FMCSA regulations, particularly Hours of Service
• Strong written communication and documentation skills
• Comfortable working in ambiguity and helping build structure where it does not yet exist
• Ability to work extended shifts, weekends, and holidays as operational needs require
