No wasted hours in trucking

About us

Baton is the Silicon Valley-based technology innovation lab for Ryder, a leading logistics company that owns 260k trucks and manages $7.4B of freight. Prior to the September 2022 acquisition, Baton was a venture-backed start-up that operated a fleet of trucks and hung out at truck stops to truly understand the challenges at hand. **The problem we’re solving** Our mission is to eliminate supply chain waste by creating a digital platform that uses AI to improve how freight is planned. There are 500 million hours wasted in trucking each year, over 3 billion gallons of fuel wasted per year from trucks idling, and 1 in 5 trucks on the road driving empty at any given point. This has a massive impact on the environment, the lives of millions of drivers, and ultimately, the cost of goods that we all pay. Baton is fixing that, and you will too through the impactful work you’ll do here. Join us as we transform the supply chain industry!

    Head of Product at Baton | Ex-Brex

    After 3 transformative years at Brex—from building the expense management product from the ground up to scaling it to customers such as DoorDash and Coinbase—I am thrilled to announce that I have joined the team at Baton as Head of Product. In my new capacity, I lead the Product and Design teams to solve complex supply chain problems and reduce carbon emissions. When I first met Nate Robert, Andrew Berberick, and Ryan Houlihan, I was blown away by the outsized and profound impact that the team has on Ryder System, Inc.'s $12 billion business and its customers. I am beyond excited to make an impact on the supply chain that underpins our physical economy. I am deeply grateful for the opportunities and mentorships I have received from Thomas Piani, Vineet Taneja, Christopher Lee, Karandeep Anand, Feng Zhao, and Ankit Prasad. Special thanks to the remarkable Baton recruiting team Justin L. and Gabriel O. for bringing me onboard! On a personal note, I have relocated to San Francisco. If you are in the Bay Area, I would love to connect!
