• Data Tools: Advanced skills in SQL querying, Python/R programming for data analysis, and Microsoft Excel (macros, pivot tables).
• Industry Knowledge: Deep understanding of Department of Transportation (DOT) Hours of Service (HOS) regulations, ELD compliance, CSA scoring system, and asset-based trucking constraints.
• Problem-Solving: Strong root-cause analysis skills with a proven track record of reducing freight cost-per-mile or increasing trailer utilization.

Preferred Skills:
