We are the leading transit data platform for agencies to share real-time passenger information, manage day-to-day operations, and improve service performance. Today, over 200 transit agencies in 12 countries – including LA Metro, MARTA, SEPTA, and MBTA – rely on Swiftly to improve on-time performance by up to 40% and increase passenger information accuracy by up to 50%. The result is better service reliability, increased ridership, and more efficient transit operations.   Even though Swiftly's HQ office is located in San Francisco, CA, we are open to candidates in most locations across the U.S. as well as Ontario and British Columbia, Canada.

This is a management role focused on building, coaching, and developing a high-performing sales team — ideal for a sales leader who thrives on developing reps, driving accountability, and winning in the public-sector transit market. We're in a period of growth and are building the go-to-market team that will define our next chapter.

You'll be responsible for hiring, onboarding, coaching, and developing these reps while setting the coaching rhythm, building pipeline strategy, and ensuring the team executes with discipline using the SPICED methodology. You'll also partner with Marketing, Product, and Customer Success to align on strategy and improve the buyer experience.
