Via is transforming public transportation through technology, partnering with transit agencies, municipalities, and governments to improve mobility for hundreds of thousands of riders weekly. As Senior Product Manager for Transportation Platforms, you will lead a complex product suite serving public sector transit agencies as both users and buyers. Your focus is on digitizing public transit, improving affordability and access, and creating better outcomes especially for low-income and minority communities.
You will own the admin console and operational platform that agencies rely on for long-term planning and real-time operations.

You'll work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment where you'll own products from conception through launch, make decisions in ambiguous situations, and maintain a data-first philosophy while balancing business acumen with technical understanding.
