  • Design and implement solutions by developing server and client technologies
  • Lead a frontend development methodology of excellence
  • Leverage your past experience with frontend architecture and design patterns into the development of a new web application that is taking its first steps into large scale application
  • Introduce modern web development technologies, set high standards and drive best practices for backend development for web applications
  • Act as a mentor that drives the team forward

Who You Are:

We’re Via, and we build technology that changes the way the world moves. We pioneered the TransitTech category to ensure that the future of transportation is shared, dynamic public mobility — the kind that reduces carbon emissions across congested cities, minimizes reliance on private cars, and provides everyone with accessible, efficient, and affordable ways of getting around.

We created the first end-to-end TransitTech solution for cities and transit agencies, offering world-class software, service design, and operational expertise to fundamentally improve the way the world moves.

Via was founded with the guiding principle that we go further when we go together. We are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace. If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles. All backgrounds, identities, and voices are welcomed and celebrated at Via.
