Who We Are Glydways is reimagining what public transit can be. We believe that mobility is the gateway to opportunity—connecting people to housing, education, employment, commerce, and care. By making transportation more accessible, affordable, and sustainable, we empower communities to thrive and unlock economic and social prosperity. Our mission is to revolutionize transit with a solution that delivers high capacity, exceptional user experiences, unmatched affordability, and minimal environmental impact. The Glydways system is a groundbreaking network of carbon‑neutral, interconnected transit pathways powered by standardized autonomous vehicles on dedicated roadways, operating 24/7 with on‑demand access and without the burden of heavy upfront infrastructure costs or ongoing taxpayer subsidies. With Glydways, we’re building more than a transportation system; we’re creating a future where everyone, everywhere, has the freedom to move.
What We’re Looking For We’re hiring a project finance lead who has worked as a developer or investor and wants to apply that experience to bring high‑impact autonomous transit systems to fruition. If you’ve spent a few years pursuing transit, toll roads, or energy infrastructure and want to work on category‑defining technology, this role is for you. You’ll play a key role in delivering the first scalable autonomous transit systems in the world and you’ll own project economics, modeling, and financing execution from project qualification through close. This is a high‑impact role with ownership across U.S. and international projects.
