About Portless
Portless is a global logistics powerhouse redefining the Direct Supply Chain. By leveraging a sophisticated multi-warehouse network, we empower brands to scale globally without the traditional friction of international fulfillment. We replace logistics headaches with a "white-glove" onboarding experience, turning complex global operations into a competitive advantage for our clients
About the Role
You are the technical and operational owner for bringing merchants live on the Portless stack. This role is critical in providing a "Ritz-Carlton" onboarding experience—anticipating merchant needs, configuring complex integrations, and ensuring operational readiness for Day 1 execution and a seamless transition to the Hypercare team for ongoing stabilization. You are not a SaaS consultant; you are a logistics architect who understands how data flows across the warehouse floor and into the cloud.

4. Launch Excellence & Knowledge Transfer
- Zero-Defect Launch: Lead the transition from sandbox to production, ensuring all technical and operational "go-live" criteria are met with 100% accuracy.
- Technical Documentation & Handover: Develop comprehensive merchant-specific SOPs and technical maps. Conduct formal handoff sessions to the Hypercare and Customer Success teams to ensure long-term stability.
- Post-Launch Stabilization: Act as the primary technical point of contact during the immediate "Day 1" window, resolving any initial
