People Strategy & Operations

Our vision is to become the marketplace for everything expensive, specialized, and difficult to move. We’re building the infrastructure that powers the procurement and disposition of assets across America’s essential industries, automating everything from discovery and payments to freight, warranty, and financing. Today, Garage operates in cities and towns across all 50 states and has surpassed $100M+ in annualized transaction volume on the platform.

Our mission is to save local governments and essential services businesses time and money. We started with fire departments two years ago and have since expanded into EMS and heavy-duty, launching new verticals while growing revenue >10x last year.

If you move fast, hold a high bar, and want meaningful ownership in building a category-defining company, Garage is the place to do it.

In People Strategy & Operations, you’ll learn how a high-growth startup builds teams–and have a meaningful voice in who joins ours.

This role sits at the intersection of strategy, operations, and execution: you’ll take on high-impact, ambiguous problems and translate business goals into how we structure, grow, and evolve the organization. We’re looking for an ambitious, high-EQ generalist who brings strong problem-solving instincts and thrives in fast-moving environments. You’ll work directly with the CEO and leadership to build our team, refine our people strategy, and lay the foundation for how Garage scales.
