At Terminal, we believe the logistics yard is the last great untapped frontier in supply chain technology — a space still run on clipboards, radios, and guesswork. Yet these yards move the trucks, trailers, chassis, and containers that power global commerce. Unlocking yard-level data is foundational to improving efficiency, sustainability, and scalability across the supply chain.
That’s why we’re building the world’s first AI-powered Yard Operating System (YOS), a platform that digitizes, automates, and orchestrates everything that happens in the yard. Powered by our Terminal Vision Engine and best-in-class machine learning, we give operators real-time visibility, intelligence, and control to slash dwell times, eliminate phantom costs, and boost throughput.
The result? Safer, smarter, faster yards — and the chance to redefine a trillion-dollar industry from the ground up. Backed by top-tier investors and partnered with leading global logistics companies, we’re not just solving problems, we’re creating the category standard.
Joining Terminal means joining a team that’s rewriting the rules of modern logistics. If you want to make a tangible impact on how goods move through the global supply chain, this is an opportunity to do meaningful work at a pivotal stage of growth.
