Director of Inside Sales
Seattle, WA, United States
ABOUT THE JOB
GeoParking Technologies (GPT) is a technology platform company that sources short-term and overnight parking for Robotaxi fleets of electric Autonomous Vehicles (eAV’s). GPT’s software only solution provides an “Airbnb style” business model for all available parking lots and spots for these vehicles. GPT’s technology platform incorporates Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technology features to predict the 24/7 availability and demand for eAV parking in locations with high rates of eAV utilization. Additionally, GPT will operate service hubs that will allow Robotaxi operators to outsource daily vehicle cleaning, washing, charging, and safety tech checks.
GPT is in the climate tech, energy, and infrastructure mobility sectors as a component of moving transportation to 100% green via zero-carbon electricity with Purchase Power Agreements (PPA) and the ability to distribute the energy/electricity over the entire metro electric grid via spreading out to ~2,000+ AV Robotaxi charging locations (instead of ~5 giant hub/depot locations creating electric grid issues).
With pending contracts with the leading operators, we are building our solution rapidly and will be in beta trials/pilots later this summer/fall. As we launch and scale this solution, we are looking for exceptional team members (i.e. GSD/“players”) to help shape the future of GPT. If you're seeking a dynamic tech startup environment where you can join as an early-stage team member and reap the benefits, our company might be the perfect fit for you.
At GeoParking Technologies, Inc. (GPT), we challenge our limits. We look for ambitious people who are looking to be part of a team that is making an impact on solving global warming. Our team is expected to be relentless and persistent. If you’re like us, we can offer you the kind of challenge that will light a fire within you.
