The posting

Via is using technology to transform transportation around the world. From changing a single person’s daily commute to reducing humanity’s collective environmental footprint — we’ve got huge goals.

Via has partnered with 100+ cities and public transit agencies around the world to deploy our mobility technology. As the Transit Safety Manager, you will oversee driver safety programs, lead in-person and virtual training, and support market operations to ensure our drivers meet the highest standards of safety and service.

What You’ll Do:

  • Serve as the primary safety lead for the service - conducting post-incident reviews, safety audits, and ride-alongs to ensure compliance with company and regulatory standards.
  • Monitor trends in safety data and collaborate with central operations to identify opportunities for proactive coaching or process improvements.
  • Support and occasionally act as the Designated Employer Representative (DER) for DOT compliance, ensuring accurate recordkeeping and timely follow-up on testing or incidents.
  • Lead root cause analyses for accidents and incidents and develop corrective action plans.
  • Design, deliver, and continually improve driver training programs - including onboarding, remedial, and refresher sessions - with a strong focus on safety, defensive driving, and passenger assistance.
  • Provide hands-on instruction in:
  • Wheelchair Securement & Passenger Sensitivity
  • Defensive Driving
  • De-escalation & Customer Interaction
  • CPR/First Aid & Emergency Procedures
  • Evaluate driver performance through ride-alongs, skills assessments, and feedback sessions.
  • Maintain training documentation, certifications, and compliance records.
  • Conduct regular ride along’s to observe service quality, reinforce training, and coach drivers in real-world conditions.
  • Serve as a visible leader across markets - fostering a culture of safety, accountability, and support.
  • Partner with operations, safety, and compliance teams to align local practices with company-wide goals.
  • Assist in driver scheduling for trainings and ensure operational readiness.
  • Support reporting and communication between field teams and central operations

Who You Are:

  • Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) with passenger endorsement required.
  • 3+ years of experience in driver training, operations management, or field supervision, preferably in fixed route and paratransit settings.
  • Proven ability to coach, motivate, and manage performance among diverse driver teams.
  • Strong understanding of safety protocols, ADA requirements, and DOT regulations.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; able to train and inspire adult learners.
  • Comfort balancing field work with administrative and compliance tasks.
  • Proficiency with digital tools (LMS platforms, dashboards, spreadsheets, etc)

Certifications & Professional Development:

We will support continued professional development and certification renewal, including:

  • PASS (Passenger Assistance Safety and Sensitivity)
  • LLLC Defensive Driving
  • CPR/First Aid
  • De-escalation Training
  • Other state- or service-specific certifications as needed.

Compensation and Benefits:

  • Salary Range: $75,000 - $90,000 / year

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.
