Industry

Hello, we're Via

We build technology that changes the way the world moves. Our guiding principle is simple: the future of transportation is dynamic, shared public mobility — the kind that reduces carbon emissions across cities, compliments existing transit infrastructure, and provides equitable access to efficient, affordable ways of getting around. For everyone.

Why Work with Us?

You’ll work in an established startup that’s growing at staggering speed. We have plenty of room for the most bold among us to dream it up and make it happen. You’ll be empowered to experiment, and encouraged to challenge what we’ve already done while making stuff no one’s even thought of yet.

We are

Humble,

Collaborative &

Ambitious

An Insider's view of Via

What's something quirky about your company?

Like many startups, we want to move as quickly as possible, but in a thoughtful, considered way — one that doesn't leave a trail of destruction in our wake. This approach, and our commitment to being innovative without crossing any moral lines, has helped us tremendously in forming fruitful relationships with our partners.

What's the biggest problem your team is solving?

Our team is educating and engaging policy makers and politicians to make sure they understand the difference between shared and single passenger rides when setting new regulations and encourage on-demand mobility as a tool to solve the transportation needs of their community.

How has your career grown since starting at the company?

In such a short time I’ve been given opportunities to push myself creatively and professionally which has been great. I’m amazed at the type of projects I get to work on and the practical experience I've been able to gain while at Via.

How do your team's ideas influence the company's direction?

The Expansion team scopes and launches new Via projects around the globe - we're the "start-up within the start-up", which means we're constantly working on unprecedented problems. It's exciting to help shape new partnerships and new product lines, whether it's a city shuttle service in California or school bus routing in New York City.

VP of Expansion (Joined Apr 2014)

What makes someone successful on your team?

A common quality we all share is the ability to be very analytical and detail-oriented when required, but to also be strategic in our thought process and decision-making. A strong willingness to learn and to directly own projects (regardless of your title or experience level) leads to success on our team.

I first joined as an intern for the opportunity to learn — I could tell early on that I'd be exposed to many parts of the business and grow a really diverse skill set.

The culture at Via is a perfect mix of exceptionalism and low ego. It’s an extremely intellectual environment that is also highly collaborative.

Yakubu Budu-Saaka

I’m inspired by Via’s mission - I’ve helped launch services that improve access to public mobility for vulnerable populations and increase connectivity to the larger public transit network.

The culture is the number one reason I chose Via. I am surrounded by people that are so sharp and so kind…they really believe in this product and its ability to fundamentally change the way that people access the world around them.

I really love that, on a daily basis, we’re all working creatively to figure out exactly what public and private sector partnerships look like and we’re developing them, piece by piece.
