The posting

Via is on a mission to create public transportation systems that provide far greater access to jobs, healthcare, and education. Our platform serves as the technology backbone for modern transit networks, transforming antiquated and siloed public transportation systems into smart, data-driven, and efficient digital networks. With hundreds of agency partners around the world, Via is recognized as the leading transportation technology and service provider globally.

As an Engineering Manager, Mobile at Via, you’ll own a key product line and lead a team building mobile apps that power reliable, equitable and sustainable transit for communities worldwide. You’ll pair strategic leadership with end-to-end execution, shaping product direction, scaling core experiences, and driving meaningful real-world impact by building from the ground up on Via’s established platform.

About the Role:

  • Lead the development of key mobile initiatives, such as improving rider/driver app performance, reliability, and user experience across iOS and Android
  • Own and execute a roadmap focused on scalability (e.g. handling peak demand, optimizing app responsiveness, and reducing latency across core user flows)
  • Drive cross-functional projects with Product, Design, and Backend teams to launch new features end-to-end, from concept through production
  • Improve engineering quality and velocity by introducing better development practices, strengthening code review standards, and evolving mobile architecture
  • Build and grow a high-performing team by hiring, mentoring, and supporting engineers across different levels
  • Identify and lead improvements to team processes (e.g. release cycles, CI/CD, testing frameworks) to increase efficiency and reduce friction
  • Contribute to broader mobile initiatives, such as aligning on shared tooling, frameworks, and long-term platform strategy

About You:

  • 7+ years of experience building mobile applications (iOS or Android), including experience working on production-scale apps
  • Proven experience leading engineering teams and delivering complex projects end-to-end
  • Strong understanding of mobile architecture, performance optimization, and modern development practices (e.g. CI/CD, testing, MVVM)
  • Comfortable working across mobile, backend, and product domains to deliver cohesive solutions
  • Collaborative and pragmatic, able to balance speed with quality and make thoughtful trade-offs
  • Hands-on and detail-oriented when needed, while still operating effectively at a leadership level
  • Clear communicator who builds trust across teams and creates a positive, inclusive team environment

Compensation and Benefits

  • Final salary will be determined by the candidate’s experience, knowledge, and skills. Salary reflected does not include equity or variable pay, where applicable
  • Salary Range: $215,000 - $265,000
  • We are proud to offer a generous and comprehensive benefits package, including free medical plans and 401K matching.

We’re Via, and we build technology that changes the way the world moves. We’re driven by a simple mission: to create modern and efficient public transportation systems that provide far greater access to jobs, healthcare, and education. With our best in class suite of products, we make transit thrive.

Our teams of worldclass engineers, data-scientists, product managers, operations specialists, marketers, transit experts and more bring cutting-edge AI-powered software and innovative technology-enabled operations to our partners across the globe. Founded in 2012, Via builds solutions to digitize, automate, and enable data-driven decision making for entire transportation networks; fixed-route buses, microtransit, paratransit, school buses, autonomous vehicles, and more.

If you’re excited to be at the forefront of modernizing the future of transportation, are up for solving tough problems, and willing to become/already are a transit nerd, we are the place for you. Even if your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description for this role, we encourage you to apply. You may be just the right candidate for this or other opportunities.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
