As a
Senior Product Manager
at Via, you will lead a complex, scaled portfolio of products and features that impact our end users. You will be joining Via at a time of rapid growth, impacting tens of thousands of riders per day, especially those from low-income communities. This is an opportunity to shape the next generation of the mobility apps that Riders use multiple times a week, provide intuitive and delightful experiences, while keeping our promise to our public sector customers on bettering the transit network as a whole.

Develop scalable ways to integrate real-time public transit and other data, building robust features for large services with varied policies on travel, payments, and communications. Build an excellent communications platform for riders from signup to bookings to reminders, with a focus on timeliness, relevance and cost. Apply network thinking to reflect the optimal experience as the rider interacts with other personas such as caregivers, drivers and transit personnel. Design inclusively with Accessibility as a driving principle for every build. Assess value vs. cost of each requirement and help scope/descope as needed. Drive a data-driven, inclusive and effective prioritization and scheduling process. Collaborate closely with Software Development, QA, Project Management and Business teams — daily interaction at a detailed level. Qualifications
You are an experienced product manager, with a minimum of 5+ years in successful startups or large companies operating on a global scale. You have owned a broad set of products, led a product domain/line, and built category-leading products. You can digest market research and customer feedback with a clear understanding of technical requirements to envision a great product. You have demonstrated success in end-to-end product lifecycle, including planning, development, and launch. Excellent analytical abilities and strong business acumen; an MBA is a plus. A great multitasker who thrives in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. Pro-active and independent, able to take a task from idea to production. Team player with strong communication and listening skills and a can-do attitude. A passion for public transit, mapping, SaaS and accessibility; experience in these areas is a plus.
