**About us:**

[Dollaride](https://dollaride.com) is building the future of urban transit.

Dollaride is a mobility company that develops clean transportation projects in
urban cities. We provide mom & pop fleet owners with mobility software and
financial services that increase EV adoption in underserved communities.

We're a program administrator to government agencies who want to incentivize
clean transportation and economic development in their cities.

And we’re a technology partner to a growing network of 500+ TLC licensed
drivers and 3,000+ commuter/shuttle transport businesses, serving over 120,000
New Yorkers every day. Beyond NYC, 24 million people live in transit deserts
across 200 US metro cities. Dollaride is building a unique platform to capture
this $30B market opportunity.

**About the role:**

Dollaride seeks a strategic, resourceful and collaborative product leader to
join our dynamic team. Working directly with the founders, you'll craft a
product vision, engage users to inform product decisions, and then develop and
deliver on a product roadmap.

This role begins as a paid 12-month Climate Justice Fellowship, focused on
market research, prototyping, and product R&D. Successful product concepts
will advance to full product development during the 12-month period. As a
fellow, you'll then be awarded a product development budget and promoted to
Product Founder. With the goal of accelerating clean transportation adoption,
you'll now have the resources to hire a team and execute your own product
roadmap/vision.

As the company grows, you’ll build cross-functional teams and proactively
improve the feedback loop between user insights and product development.
You'll guide the product direction, as well as seek and produce value
propositions that distinguish our product in the market. You will act on your
inner curiosity to conduct research and explore new opportunities, while
setting clear priorities and coaching your team to success.

The ideal candidate for this role is a problem solver who proactively
identifies and overcomes roadblocks inherant to bringing a product to market.
Your record should highlight your passion for creating high-quality products,
built through iterative feedback loops with users. Your work experience should
reflect a deep interest in inspiring change, leading in fast-paced (startup)
environments and creating clarity amidst uncertainty.
