HEY! IMPORTANT!
Please include a cover letter about why the job speaks to you (#8?). It's the most important thing, weneed to know who you are and what you're about.
Well, this isn't your average job ad, and we're not lookingfor your average engineer. Interested? Let's dig in.
1? Who are we:
Our company wasfounded in 2006 specializing in all things technical for bus-based publictransit systems in the US. This means we design, manufacture, and manage allkinds of different products and features, including driver interfaces, dispatchcommunications (text and voice), passenger counters, announcers, GPS tracking,and reporting & data analytics. It also means we build real-timeinformation systems for riders ("Bus in 7 & 10 min") includingapps and digital signage found at bus stops. We have relationships with AppleMaps, Google Maps, Transit app, and our work goes out to millions of riders onthose platforms. Our product is like air traffic control, but for buses. Thereare a mix of hardware and software products in this role. We hope this excitesyou!
The company wasacquired in 2015 by a European company (GMV) who does what we do there, inaddition to having a market leading presence in space and defense. We're stillled by our founding team and have a group of passionate technologists andtransit lovers across our organization.
The company hasapproximately 50 people, with 12 in the product/engineering department, butwe're part of a 3,000 person parent organization. It's the best of both worlds:small company feel with big company support. We are fully remote with offsitesonce or twice a year and physical offices that some folks choose to use inDowntown LA & Houston, TX.
You don't need to be in either of these locales,but it would be great if you are.
2? This is a business, and we're here to servecustomers
Ourcustomers are public transit operators. Their customers are the transit ridingpublic, which is often people who have far less than we do. Our job is to MakeTransit Work for them. We take this mission very seriously, and to put itbluntly: we want team members who are here to solve problems and servecustomers as our first and only priority.

3? We're hiring for your attitude
Wevalue engineers who like to ship solutions to problems and aren't afraid toreceive direct feedback about why a particular solution may or may not be thebest. We value people who enjoy being wrong and learning something new aboutwhy in the process, recognizing that the team has something to learn fromeveryone on it.

This kind of transparency, candor andprofessionalism is what makes a world-class engineering team.
