The posting, in ShipMonk's own words
archived Oct 19, 2026ShipMonk isn't just a 3PL — we're the tech-powered growth partner for ecommerce brands, running 12+ owned fulfillment centers across the US, Canada, the UK, and Europe so our merchants can stress less and grow more.
About the role
ShipMonk is a fast-growing 3PL whose operations run 24/7 across Europe and the US. Our Security team covers compliance, incident response, identity, and security operations for the whole company. We're hiring an engineer who will work across all of these areas rather than specialize in one. Your time will be split roughly evenly between day-to-day operations and building the capabilities we don't have yet. AI is part of how we work. We expect you to adapt quickly and use AI tools to improve work efficiency and strengthen our company's security posture.
