Job description

Via is using technology to transform transportation around the world. From changing a single person’s daily commute to reducing humanity’s collective environmental footprint — we’ve got huge goals.

As General Manager / Strategy & Operations Principal , you will manage a first-of-its-kind, intermodal transit service while gaining exposure to a fast-paced tech company. This is not a role where you will be following a playbook; you will be building the plane while flying it — making it a challenging people-facing role that spans entrepreneurship, business development, and operations management. We hope you are up for it!

  • This role requires someone to be based locally in either of the following locations : Seattle, Los Angeles

What You'll Do :

  • Manage the on-site daily operations of Via’s service on behalf of our partner
  • Prioritize operational issues as a real-time point of contact for drivers and dispatchers and provide creative solutions for scheduling of a round-the-clock team
  • Manage and mentor the on-site team of dispatchers and shift managers
  • Be the face of the operation; develop relationships with driver partners, customers, community leaders, and local organizations
  • Liaise closely with Via senior management and external partners
  • Develop clear metrics for the team and provide visibility into results against KPIs and priorities on a weekly basis
  • Prepare reports and analyze data to improve operational processes, ensure resources are properly allocated, and maximize efficiency and customer satisfaction
  • Ensure compliance with all relevant federal, state, local, and company policies, procedures, and regulations on service operations
  • Lead, coach, and develop an engaged team of drivers, fostering a collaborative, cohesive, and energetic environment
  • Who You Are :

  • Experienced operator, with at least 6 - 10 years of experience and hold a Bachelor's degree
  • Local to either Seattle or Los Angeles
  • You are an independent self-starter, thrive in fast-paced environments, and feel comfortable with a high level of responsibility
  • You are a savvy and tactful communicator : you intuitively find the right tone in every situation
  • You desire to foster a culture deeply committed to providing a world-class customer service experience
  • You are a detail-oriented executor : obsessively action-oriented and thrive while operating autonomously
  • You are an experienced and exceptional leader : people love working with you and for you, with extensive experience leading support teams
  • You are flexible and adaptable : love the challenge of adapting to change rapidly and making things work on the fly
  • You have a proven track record of managing teams (at least 3-5 years) and developing people — know how to motivate and get the best work out of every person
  • You are effective at managing multiple tasks simultaneously : delegate, prioritize, and take responsibility
  • You are a problem solver; don’t accept the status quo and are always looking for creative solutions
  • Compensation and Benefits :

  • Final salary will be determined by the candidate’s experience, knowledge, and skills. Salary does not include equity or variable pay, where applicable
  • Salary Range : $130,000 - $165,000 per year
  • We offer a generous and comprehensive benefits package, including free medical plans and 401K matching
  • We’re Via, and we build technology that changes the way the world moves. We’re driven by a simple mission : to create modern and efficient public transportation systems that provide far greater access to jobs, healthcare, and education. With our best-in-class suite of products, we make transit thrive.

    Our teams of world-class engineers, data scientists, product managers, operations specialists, marketers, transit experts, and more bring cutting-edge AI-powered software and innovative technology-enabled operations to our partners across the globe. Founded in 2012, Via builds solutions to digitize, automate, and enable data-driven decision-making for entire transportation networks, including fixed-route buses, microtransit, paratransit, school buses, autonomous vehicles, and more.

    If you’re excited to be at the forefront of modernizing the future of transportation, are up for solving tough problems, and willing to become or already are a transit nerd, we are the place for you. Even if your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply. You may be just the right candidate for this or other opportunities.

    Ready to join the ride?

    Via is an equal opportunity employer.
