About AirGarage AirGarage is on a mission to bring real estate online, starting with parking.We replace broken parking machines, fragmented software, and manual, labor-intensive operations with a unified, data-rich operating system for parking real estate. We handle everything it takes to run and optimize a parking asset: payments, dynamic pricing, enforcement, license plate recognition, analytics, and more.By building all of our technology in-house, we are able to deliver a magical experience for drivers while providing real-time visibility and revenue increases of 20-50% or more for real estate owners. That’s why national real‑estate leaders like Hines and Greystar, as well as technology companies like Meta, partner with AirGarage to optimize their parking facilities.AirGarage uses datapoints like real-time occupancy, local events, weather, driver behavior, competitor pricing, and more to bring true intelligence to real estate owners’ assets for the first time.We’re investing aggressively to make the physical world legible to a digital system: cameras, sensors, and software that generate a firehose of real-time data about the world around us. That data fuels models and algorithms that allow us to optimize performance at each property while giving owners the clarity and control they’ve never had before.Before you can optimize an asset, you need to observe it. Before you can observe it, you need to bring it online.We are starting with the $131 billion US parking real estate market because it is one of the most offline and mismanaged commercial real estate asset types. 26% of the land area in the median American urban core is dedicated to parking.We are backed by top tier investors including Headline Growth, Andreessen Horowitz, Floodgate, Founders Fund, Abstract Ventures, and angel investors who have founded or worked at companies like Uber, Opendoor, Flexport, and more.

You’ll also lead our enforcement fleet (Space Force) and work closely with regional leadership to ensure every facility is performing at its peak.Ultimately, you will be responsible for scaling operational excellence in your region: driving efficiency, profitability, and reliability while helping AirGarage expand our footprint and strengthen our reputation as the best operating partner for property owners.WHAT YOU WILL DO 👷‍♀️<ul><li>Operational Execution<ul><li>Ensure our properties look great and run smoothly through managing partnerships with third party vendors for routine (and not routine) services like cleaning, maintenance, wifi-installation, and more.</li><li>Own the physical appearance and day to day operations of all parking facilities in your region.</li><li>Proactively identify &amp; resolve issues impacting facility performance.</li></ul></li><li>Enforcement Optimization<ul><li>Manage the Space Force, our fleet of contract enforcers across your region.</li><li>Refine incentives and run experiments to maximize efficiency of our enforcement program.</li></ul></li><li>Pricing &amp; Revenue Management<ul><li>Develop, implement, and iterate on dynamic pricing strategies for the region’s portfolio.</li><li>Continuously evaluate market trends and competitor rates to maximize revenue.</li><li>Build and maintain reporting dashboards to track performance and guide decision-making.</li></ul></li><li>Cross-Functional Collaboration<ul><li>Partner with the regional GM to align pricing and channel strategies with overall regional P&amp;L goals.</li><li>Work with the Partner Success Manager to deliver a seamless experience for property owners and tenants.</li><li>Provide clear feedback to Product &amp; Engineering on tools and systems that impact facility operations.</li></ul></li></ul>WHAT YOU NEED 👩🏼‍🎓<ul><li>3–5+ years of experience in operations (ideally at another start up or company with a similar regional operations model (e.g. DoorDash, Uber, etc), banking, or consulting.</li><li>Ability to work West Coast hours (you do not need to live on the West Coast, but have to be comfortable working the same hours as your other teammates).</li><li>Strong analytical skills: comfortable with SQL, spreadsheets, reporting tools, and data-driven decision-making.</li><li>Process and systems driven: designs, documents, and enforces SOPs; builds repeatable playbooks; instruments workflows and iterates for quality and speed.</li><li>Proactive, resourceful, and able to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.</li><li>Excellent communication and organizational skills.</li><li>Proven ability to use data to inform strategy, identify trends, and optimize performance including user-level analysis and segmentation</li><li>Willingness to travel across the region for site visits and vendor meetings (20%+ Travel).</li></ul>WHY THIS ROLE MAY NOT BE FOR YOU 🚨We want to be transparent: this role is not a fit for everyone. Being a Regional Operations Manager at a fast-growing startup like AirGarage means you’ll face unique challenges that may not exist in later stage companies. You might want to pass if:<ul><li>You prefer a 9-to-5 rhythm. Our facilities run 24/7, and while we don’t expect constant availability, urgent issues sometimes arise outside of standard business hours.</li><li>You want to stay behind a desk. This role requires regular travel and site visits, hanging out in parking garages, troubleshooting wifi boxes, or walking properties with vendors.</li><li>You need highly defined processes from day one. We’re still building playbooks. You’ll often be the one creating the process for others to follow.</li><li>You’re uncomfortable with ambiguity. At AirGarage, priorities can shift quickly as we scale. You’ll need to adapt, problem-solve, and move forward without perfect information.</li><li>You’re looking for a large team of direct reports. This role is highly hands-on, leaning on third-party vendors and contractors, rather than managing a big staff.</li><li>You prefer doing strategic work only. While strategy is part of the role, you’ll also be rolling up your sleeves on tactical execution daily.</li><li>You do not have strong SQL skills. There will be a test that requires you to be proficient to pass after the first interview.</li></ul>If that energizes you rather than scares you off, you’ll thrive here.IMPORTANT NOTE 🚨AirGarage is a remote-first company, but we also value in-person collaboration to strengthen trust and teamwork. Team members should expect ~6 weeks of travel per year for:<ul><li>2–3 full company offsites, “Remote Weeks”</li><li>Lending a hand to support 2 new location launches</li><li>In-person onboarding as well as supporting other onboarding sessions for new team members</li></ul>The rest of the year, team members can work remotely from wherever (US time zones) they’re most comfortable as long as they are performing well in their role. Attendance at in-person events throughout the year is expected—if you’re not open to traveling ~6 weeks per year for work, this role isn’t a good fit for you.THE UPSIDE 📈<ul><li>📈 Equity: Have a stake in the business that you’re helping to build and grow.</li><li>🌴 Work remotely: Live and work wherever you like!
