About the role
Uber Freight is seeking a Logistics Specialist III to support transportation operations for a key customer account, with a primary focus on rail operations.

The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, organized, customer-focused, and comfortable managing a high volume of communication and operational tasks throughout the day. This position follows a hybrid schedule based out of our Exton, PA office, working onsite Tuesday through Thursday and remotely Monday and Friday.
