At Lyft, our mission is to improve people’s lives with the world’s best transportation. To do this, we start with our own community by creating an open, inclusive, and diverse organization.

Lyft is looking for a strategic leader to oversee the East Coast region for TBS, which includes our New York City, Boston, and DC micromobility programs (including Citi Bike, Bluebikes, Capital Bikeshare, and our current and future scooter programs in those regions). This leader will own the P&Ls for these systems, which means responsibility for regional strategy, growth, operations, partnerships with local government leaders, and community engagement partners. We also expect this leader to play an integral role in supporting cross functional initiatives across TBS in areas such as product development and policy, and to help shape broader company strategy.
