Remote | Offices in Los Angeles & HoustonHEY! IMPORTANT!
Please apply by email (see #9) and include an email about why the job speaks to you (#8). It's the most important thing, we need to know who you are and what you're about. It’s not your average job ad, and we're not looking for an average project “administrator”. Interested? Let's dig in.
- Who we are:
The company was acquired in 2015 by a European company (GMV) who does what we do there, in addition to having a market leading presence in space and defense. We’re still led by our founding team and have a group of passionate technologists and transit lovers across our organization.
We operate fully remotely, with occasional offsites once or twice a year, and maintain physical offices in Downtown LA & Houston. You don’t need to be in either of these locales, but it’s preferred if you are.
- This is a business, and we're here to serve customers
If you want to be challenged and grow in a small team environment with high autonomy and see your work live on thousands of transit buses nationwide, then we are the team for you.
- We’re hiring for your attitude
We value interest in technology, transportation, and non-traditional, wide-ranging backgrounds.
- What we need you to do in this role
As a product manager, you’ll sit at the center of everything we do and you’ll need to put together a deep understanding of business context, internal resources, market desires, and user preferences into a clear vision. You should be willing to travel to learn from our users and to work across every department and function within our company to help us drive value in the right ways. You will lead a team of engineers without being their direct supervisor, so your people skills are critical, but we don’t want you to be the development project manager.
You’ll be part marketer, part designer, part tester, and part trainer. You’ll have high responsibility, but also high influence. You’ll go from discussing strategy with our senior leadership team one minute to writing detailed acceptance criteria in a development ticket the next, or from spending one day riding along with a bus driver in a small town to spending the following presenting at an industry conference with agency leaders from across the country.
We need someone who isn’t afraid to get their hands dirty in whatever way necessary, owning the success of the products they lead and guiding our entire organization to deliver them successfully to our customers
We're looking for a customer-oriented continuous-learner who will stay focused and keep our entire team that way .
- We need you for the long term
Our team is passionate, our product makes a difference, and your commitment is needed. Let us sell you on that.
- OK OK we like to have fun too
Let us show you this during the interview process, we promise you won't be disappointed.
- Pay and Benefits
- Competitive salary according to proven experience
- Generous bonus program directly related to your own projects’ performance
- Generous health and dental benefits
- Generous paid parental leave
- 401k plan w/match
- Flexible hours and location
- To apply, you must send more than a resume – we need to understand who you are
The letter you write for us will be 10 times more valuable than your resume in getting our attention. If you send just your resume, it is very unlikely we will respond (but we’d still love for you to attach it to your letter).
