We're running a paid study on the strategies organizations use to negotiate parcel shipping agreements. Carrier allocation and contract terms have a massive impact on supply chain efficiency, and we want to understand the decision-making process behind these choices. Your insights will help us map the current landscape of logistics partnerships.
You will join a remote video interview to walk us through your approach to managing shipping logistics. We will ask you to detail how your organization negotiates contracts and allocates package volume among various carriers. You will discuss the primary factors that influence your carrier selection, including pricing, reliability, and service level agreements. The conversation will focus entirely on your professional methodology and past experiences managing these operational challenges.
We welcome logistics managers, supply chain directors, and procurement specialists who actively oversee shipping operations. You should have direct experience negotiating contracts with major parcel carriers and managing outbound volume distribution. Candidates with a background in e-commerce fulfillment, enterprise shipping, or global logistics are highly encouraged to apply.

Terac is building the infrastructure layer that connects AI systems with on-demand human expertise.
We believe the future of work is shifting: instead of humans using AI to do most tasks, AI will increasingly do most work with the help of humans. In that world, companies won’t need traditional employees - but they will still need people. Terac powers that future by making high-quality human labor accessible through a single API.
Today, Terac operates as an expert network for frontier research. We handle sourcing, verification, screening, and payouts so partners can instantly access specialized talent for research, evaluation, and data generation. Our platform enables companies to tap into niche expertise on demand while focusing on building their core products.
Backed by $9M from Emergence, SignalFire, Audacious, and Z Fellows, we’re scaling from research tooling into a broader marketplace for the human data economy - building systems for expert matching, pricing, routing, and trust that will define how AI and humans collaborate at scale.
