About Terminal
Terminal builds telematics data infrastructure for the commercial fleet industry. Commercial auto insurers and fleet software companies, including industry leaders like Intact Insurance, Penske, and Progressive, depend on our platform to access GPS, speeding, and vehicle data from 330+ telematics providers. We recently raised our Series A led by Battery Ventures and are backed by Y Combinator, Golden Ventures, Penske Transportation Solutions, and Intact Private Capital. Our team works together in person in Toronto, combining early-stage speed with late-stage maturity while processing many terabytes of vehicle data every day.

Note that this role is only open to Toronto/GTA-based candidates.
About the role
Post-sales at Terminal is NOT a support function - it is our primary growth engine. Our model compounds through the scaling, expansion, and retention of existing customers, not only through new logos, making this role the operational core of the company’s growth.
We’re hiring our first Customer Engineer to own the post-sign technical lifecycle inside Terminal’s enterprise accounts, end-to-end. You won’t inherit a production-readiness standard or an implementation playbook; rather, you’ll have the opportunity to write them. Working in a dedicated pod with a Strategic Account Manager and a Customer Success Manager, you take each customer from signed contract to production readiness and then to technical scaling across the fleets, and you build the system that every Customer Engineer after you will inherit.
You own the technical truth of the account: what is integrated, what is certified, and what it will take to scale. You turn integration ambiguity into a dated, defensible path to go-live, and you own every technical escalation until it is closed. You take account-level direction from the SAM and report to the COO. This is a senior, high-accountability role: we’re hiring someone who has delivered enterprise implementations in a post-sales context, specifically, not something adjacent.
What you own, and what you don’t
You own three things:
-
The technical path to: technical solutioning, integration design, and the Definition of Done for every go-live, the milestone that the whole pod’s time-to-value depends on.
-
Enablement and technical scaling: getting each customer’s technical team self-sufficient on the platform, then scaling from the first production fleet to full fleet syncing at contracted quality.
