At Lyft, our mission is to improve people’s lives with the world’s best transportation. We see cities evolve into safe and friendly living spaces, people engaging in neighbourhood communities, where there are fewer personal cars and people are using shared and active transportation modes more.

Today, Lyft is a leader in micromobility and enables millions of rides every day in more than 200 cities though our ride-sharing, bike-sharing and scooter-sharing technology. Our Montreal office developed the first automated bike-share system in America (Montreal’s Bixi), a system that has since evolved and grown and is now deployed in more than 50 cities around the world: Barcelona, Bogota, Boston, Buenos Aires, Chicago, Dubai, London, Madrid, Mexico, Montreal, New York, Rio de Janeiro, San Francisco and Washington DC, to name a few. Many of the biggest bike-share systems in the world!

Lyft’s Transit, Bikes & Scooters (TBS) engineering team in Montreal is growing rapidly, and we are looking for engineering managers to help us scale. Our engineers are smart, flexible, and capable of solving difficult challenges. They look to their managers for organizational transparency, career development, mentorship, and honest feedback. They move fast and ship code to production continuously, relying on their leadership to increase productivity by removing obstacles and keeping processes lean. Our engineering managers are people with varying technical backgrounds and interests, they provide general technical direction for our teams. Together, we build teams that are inclusive, helpful, and have a strong sense of ownership for the things we create. More specifically, Infrastructure Engineering Managers focus on our engineering and production systems, the platforms and tools our engineers use and ensure the reliability of our systems.
