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.

As a Regulatory Operations Associate , you will handle the day-to-day execution, tracking, and operational tasks required to keep Via’s transit partnerships fully compliant.

- Audit & Records Maintenance: Maintain centralized documentation systems, log compliance records, and perform routine audits of service data to ensure all partner markets remain 100% audit-ready.

- Tooling & Data Entry Workflows: Utilize internal operational tools, AI-assisted reporting workflows, and databases to extract compliance metrics, log discrepancies, and replace manual paperwork with structured digital tracking.

- Operational Monitoring: Track day-to-day Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and incident reports, flagging non-compliance issues or emerging operational bottlenecks directly to market operations managers.

- Project Coordination: Update and maintain project trackers, compliance calendars, and operational checklists to ensure all milestone dates, renewals, and partner deliverables are completed on schedule.

- Cross-Functional Support: Liaise directly with local Fleet Coordinators, Dispatch, Legal, and Market Operations teams to gather evidence, verify on-the-ground operational facts, and resolve administrative compliance blockers.

- Clear, practical communicator able to coordinate across frontline operations, legal, and city teams to track down required documentation.

- Fast learner comfortable adopting new software platforms, spreadsheets, and internal workflow tools quickly.

- Prior experience with Salesforce, Google Sheets/Excel, or compliance tracking software is a plus, but not required.
