2 Alta/CitiBike Technical Job Postings

[Michael Frumin]

All,

I'm sure our needs will grow and evolve but for now I've identified the two following roles as urgent needs.  Please take a look, lemme know what you think, etc.  A key bit of context is that the main parts of the bikeshare system are supplied by partners so it's not the case that we are in a position to directly open up, fix, rewrite, etc. the parts of the system which need the most help.

• Technical Project Manager: http://goo.gl/FpddUW
  
• Systems Architect: http://goo.gl/1mDQZ5
  

(Both would be direct reports to me)

I'm also totally open to other ideas and suggestions.  Other near-future needs could include a software developer focused on integration between existing/commercially available tools, a business analyst, and someone focused on security/compliance around credit card processing.

Thanks,

Mike

And I just joined this list!

Email me at this address if you are interested to help out. The problem is enormous and we need all kinds of help -- product managers, project managers, systems architects, a modest about of software Dev/integration, etc.  

Thanks
Mike

PS I've gotten some feedback that the location of the lob was unclear.  To be clear: Alta is now headquartered in NYC so these jobs are in NYC.

I came out of Grand Central Terminal this morning to discover there weren’t any bikes. Not “no bikes left”, but “the whole station is gone” (Vanderbilt & 42nd).

I gather it was moved over to Park Ave. Not complaining about the move. In fact, it’s probably a good thing (I always thought the current placement of stations, while good for me, was inconvenient for people heading to the east side). But, it was a bit of a surprise.

So, maybe an automated email with service announcements concerning stations you use a lot? In my case, there’s two (well, now one :-) stations near Grand Central, and two near my office that make up 95% of my usage. An email saying, “Hey, this station you’ve used almost every day for the past 3 months is moving” would have been a nice feature.
