This is an opportunity in the exciting and fast-growing transportation technology industry.

- **Client stakeholder management**: Build relationships with stakeholders, understand and manage expectations, provide status updates, identify and mitigate stakeholder concerns and risks, and facilitate collaborative decision making.
- **Prepare reports and presentations**: Utilize reports and/or presentations to inform and influence stakeholders and decision-makers. Work with the project’s technical staff to distill insights into easily understandable and persuasive written communications, for a variety of stakeholders.
- **Mentor and coach**: Advise team members to accomplish project goals and resolve technical/operational issues.
- **Drive continuous improvement**: Build, maintain, and train internally on project management best practices for micro-transit rollouts. Collaboratively develop weekly/monthly actions to drive continuous improvements, and to achieve the service’s objectives (e.g. user experience, ridership, operating efficiency, financials etc.).
- **Improve internal processes and tooling**: Identify ways to further automate and systematize our internal processes. Collaboratively champion internal process/tooling improvements.
- **Educate**: Continuously expand the collective knowledge base of the company through multi-disciplinary learning and knowledge sharing.

- **Benefits Plan**: Medical, dental, prescription, life/health spending accounts and more
- **Work Environment**: Located in KW's most desirable work space in the heart of Uptown Waterloo

**Who we are**:
RideCo powers on-demand transit. Public transit agencies use RideCo's cloud-based software platform to provide on-demand shared rides in dynamically routed buses and vans. Our clients include some of the world’s largest transportation operators such as Los Angeles Metro, San Antonio Metro, and Calgary Transit.

Have you experienced getting frustrated with transfers and waiting while taking a public bus? Have you seen buses drive around in low-density areas with very few passengers on-board and wondered how inefficient that seems to be? You're likely aware of the first & last mile access challenges faced by transit hubs. We are solving these problems by re-imagining shared mobility. Imagine a world where vehicles have dynamic routes responsive to real-time trip demand. This 'dynamic shuttle' (or van /sedan) would pick you up, on-demand, at or near your doorstep, and take you to your destination or transit hub. Along the way, it may pick-up other passengers going in your direction. Your experience will be seamless: less waiting, less walking, fewer transfers, shorter travel time, and timely pickups and drop-offs. RideCo's 'dynamic shuttle' platform enables this seamless experience and low-cost shared rides for vehicle fleet operators and their passengers. By
