The Company You’ll Join

Garage powers the exchange of critical assets across essential industries. We started with fire departments, where purchasing mission-critical vehicles and equipment could take months of navigating outdated, opaque processes—and we’re continuing to expand that model to new industries. Our agentic platform automates the entire journey: discovery, payments, freight, warranty, and financing. What once took months now takes minutes.

In under a year, we’ve expanded to cities and towns in all 50 states and grown revenue more than 10x. Based in New York, we’ve raised $18M from Y Combinator, Initialized Capital, Infinity Ventures, FJ Labs, and other leading investors. We’re moving fast, growing quickly, and just getting started.

In this role, you will

  • Own operational initiatives and special projects — take initiative on projects that improve workflows, strengthen operations, and help the team scale.

  • Maintain operational accuracy and visibility — update and manage trackers and internal systems to ensure deal status, documentation, and timelines are always current.

  • Problem-solve and exercise judgment — identify issues, gather missing information, resolve straightforward requests efficiently, and escalate when needed to keep deals moving.

  • Internal Collaboration — own the operational coordination between clients, Sales, Engineering, and other internal teams to ensure issues are resolved efficiently and accurately, while surfacing opportunities to improve the customer experience.

  • Operate with speed and precision — manage multiple active transactions at once while maintaining high attention to detail in a fast-moving environment.

  • Support users in navigating the product — help buyers and sellers understand how to use the Garage platform and complete required actions smoothly, and identify ways to improve the user experience.

We’re looking for someone who

  • Takes ownership, works effectively with a high degree of autonomy, and is proactive about identifying and driving solutions.

  • Is comfortable working in a fast-paced, dynamic environment while maintaining attention to detail.

  • Is skilled at engaging with customers and building trust through clarity, responsiveness, and professionalism.

  • Is able to prioritize and manage multiple active requests and deadlines efficiently.

  • Is confident navigating spreadsheets, trackers, and multiple data sources, with the ability to interpret and communicate insights clearly.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree from an accredited university.

  • 3+ years of experience in operations, customer-facing, or analytical roles.

  • Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail.

  • Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively with stakeholders at all levels, from frontline operators to CEOs, via phone and email.

Nice to have

  • Experience operating in an early-stage or high-growth startup environment.

  • Proficient with ticketing and project management tools (e.g., Notion, Jira, Linear) to manage tasks, workflows, and client requests

  • A curious, proactive mindset, with a willingness to contribute new ideas

  • Low ego and willing to roll up their sleeves—taking ownership of projects and doing whatever it takes to move the work forward

What we offer

  • Competitive salary and stock options

  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance for you and all your dependents

  • Enjoy daily catered lunches at our New York City office

  • Unlimited paid time off every year

  • $100 / month wellness stipend
