Joshua Santiago
@joshuasantiago1
CDL-licensed logistics and delivery professional focused on safety, teamwork, and on-time service.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Class B CDL-licensed logistics professional with a DOT Medical Examiner’s Certificate, built on years of high-responsibility work. I’m at my best when teamwork, safety compliance, and smooth execution matter most.
Since July 2023, I’ve served as a Driver/Navigator in regional food service distribution, coordinating deliveries with drivers and dispatch to keep restaurant operators on schedule. I step up during peak volumes by driving both non-CDL and Class B CDL box trucks and using careful trip planning plus real-time route communication.
I take pride in protecting product integrity and reducing risk—adhering to food safety regulations and temperature control protocols while unloading and organizing products. I also support safe operations through thorough pre-trip equipment checks, securing cargo, and safely maneuvering heavy loads in all weather conditions.
Before logistics, I spent years in law enforcement at the Randolph County Sheriff’s Office, progressing from patrol to Criminal Interdiction and into the Vice/Narcotics Unit, including K9 handler experience. That background sharpened my legal research, interviewing, report writing, and decision-making under pressure—and it still shapes how I handle every run with discipline and professionalism.
