Retail Logistics Manager (Remote, Part-Time)
Listing checked September 18, 2026 · pay as published by Handshake AI
Overview
Handshake AI hires retail logistics and transportation specialists for part-time AI research work. You use your grounding in freight management, delivery route planning, and supply chain visibility to judge AI-generated answers and shape better training examples. The project runs on an ongoing basis, so you can fit tasks around another job or consulting work. Pay comes by the hour, and the role sits in a fellowship-style program rather than a standard full-time post. Expect to write clear critiques, not manage a warehouse team.
What You'll Do5
- 1Build expert-level training questions and scenarios that mirror real retail logistics and transportation workflows.
- 2Review AI-generated responses for accuracy against freight management and logistics practice, then mark errors or gaps.
- 3Write structured feedback that explains why an answer fails or succeeds, using domain examples to support each point.
- 4Flag weak or misleading content tied to delivery route planning, freight invoice auditing, or supply chain visibility.
- 5Complete project tasks on your own schedule with no minimum hour requirement.
Requirements4
- 15+ years of professional work in retail logistics or transportation management. Relevant titles include Transportation Manager, Logistics Manager, Logistics Analyst, TMS Analyst, Distribution Manager, Freight Operations Manager, or Supply Chain Visibility Analyst.
- 2Hands-on practice with freight invoice auditing and delivery route planning.
- 3Comfort using Oracle OTM, FourKites, or comparable transportation management and supply chain visibility platforms.
- 4Clear written communication, close attention to detail, and the ability to work on your own in a remote, asynchronous setting.
Who Should Apply
People with 5+ years in retail logistics or transportation management fit this role best. Your background includes freight invoice auditing, delivery route planning, or both, and you know platforms such as Oracle OTM or FourKites. The work suits someone who can write precise feedback and manage an asynchronous remote schedule. Candidates without direct retail logistics or transportation experience often score low, even if they write well. Another common miss is listing general supply chain knowledge without naming specific TMS or visibility tools and the workflows you ran in them.
Salary Insight
The role pays $80.00 per hour. For part-time AI training work that calls for senior logistics and transportation expertise, this rate sits above general annotation projects and reflects the 5+ years of domain experience the client expects. Total earnings track with how many tasks you take on, since the project sets no minimum hours.

Application Tip
Lead your application with one concrete example from freight invoice auditing or delivery route planning. Name the TMS or visibility platform you used, such as Oracle OTM or FourKites, and add numbers that show scope: routes covered, carriers managed, invoices audited per week, or dollars recovered. Attach a short writing sample that critiques an AI-style logistics answer for accuracy. That mix of domain proof and written critique matches what reviewers need to see.
