AirGarage is on a mission to bring real estate online, starting with parking.
We replace broken parking machines, fragmented software, and manual, labor-intensive operations with a unified, data-rich operating system for parking real estate. We handle everything it takes to run and optimize a parking asset: payments, dynamic pricing, enforcement, license plate recognition, analytics, and more.
By building all of our technology in-house, we are able to deliver a magical experience for drivers while providing real-time visibility and revenue increases of 20-50% or more for real estate owners. That’s why national real‑estate leaders like Hines and Greystar, as well as technology companies like Meta, partner with AirGarage to optimize their parking facilities.
AirGarage uses datapoints like real-time occupancy, local events, weather, driver behavior, competitor pricing, and more to bring true intelligence to real estate owners’ assets for the first time.
We’re investing aggressively to make the physical world legible to a digital system: cameras, sensors, and software that generate a firehose of real-time data about the world around us. That data fuels models and algorithms that allow us to optimize performance at each property while giving owners the clarity and control they’ve never had before.
Before you can optimize an asset, you need to observe it. Before you can observe it, you need to bring it online.
We are starting with the $131 billion US parking real estate market because it is one of the most offline and mismanaged commercial real estate asset types. 26% of the land area in the median American urban core is dedicated to parking.
We are backed by top tier investors including Headline Growth, Andreessen Horowitz, Floodgate, Founders Fund, Abstract Ventures, and angel investors who have founded or worked at companies like Uber, Opendoor, Flexport, and more.

The Hardware Deployment Project Manager will be the air traffic controller for every physical touchpoint of AirGarage’s hardware programs.
You’ll coordinate the deployment and maintenance of our hardware systems (including license plate recognition units, occupancy tracking camera systems, digital access solutions, and more) by partnering with vendors, field engineers, and internal teams for each new facility we launch.
This will involve managing stakeholder expectations when there is a backlog of issues across dozens of sites nationwide.
Think of it as being the general manager for field hardware: one moment you’re reserving a boom lift in Boston, the next you’re getting posts installed in a surface lot in Vegas. If turning complex moving parts into a crisp, repeatable playbook gets you fired up, you’ll thrive here.
This role sits at the intersection of hardware deployment, field operations, vendor management, and partner success. It demands meticulous planning, lightning-fast problem solving, and clear, confident communication so our partners experience flawless, data-rich parking operations from day one.
Deploy & Sustain License Plate Recognition Systems Nationwide
Own the master schedule of all Tripwire (our made-in-house LPR system) installs, repairs, and upgrades ensuring every site is scoped and staffed with the right gear and people.
Manage budgets, purchase orders, and on-the-fly logistics (flights, rental equipment, supply runs) to keep costs down and timelines tight.
Coordinate vendors through site surveys, camera-position planning, and infrastructure prep so every device captures accurate occupancy data day and night.
Build vendor relationships that turn one-off installers into trusted long term partners.
Funnel field insights back to our Hardware R&D team in order to suggest improvements.
Champion continuous improvement so every new hardware iteration is more reliable, easier to install, and more cost-effective than the last.
Lead the rollout of our facility access hardware to provide seamless digital entry and exit at AirGarage facilities.
Coordinate gate repairs and new hardware installs, and establish a preventive maintenance cadence to keep every access system online and secure for drivers.
Maintain a living, highly visible calendar of hardware deployments and fixes; share status updates early and often with Engineering, Ops, Sales, and Partner Success.
Lead and support a small but growing installation team, with a focus on smart hiring, effective execution, and team development.
Generate detailed Scopes of Work and installation checklists so every stakeholder knows who’s doing what, when, and with which resources.
Coordinate with internal or external installers in real time to track progress, gather photos/videos, and unblock issues before they derail timelines.
Enforce rigorous documentation such as Field Maintenance Logs, photo libraries, and post-install artifacts so we always have a single source of truth.
Spin up 3rd party deployments for minor field repairs; track suspected Tripwire degradation and dispatch fixes proactively.
Iterate on playbooks, SOPs, and dashboards that improve install velocity, consistency, and data quality across hundreds of parking facilities.
Act as the primary point of contact for property owners, regional ops teams, and third-party vendors throughout each deployment.

A track record of juggling complex logistics—budgets, travel, equipment rentals—without dropping the ball.
3+ years of project management or field operations experience deploying hardware at scale (PropTech, IoT, telecom, or similar preferred).
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills; you turn technical jargon into plain-English updates anyone can act on.
Proficiency with cloud-based project-tracking, documentation, and collaboration tools (we live in G-Suite, Slack, Django, JobNimbus, and others).
High-level technical intuition—you don’t need to design a PCB, but you can talk voltage, PoE, and network uplinks with engineers and installers alike.
Fiercely proactive and assertive—you spot blockers before others do and rally teams to solve them fast.
