Job Title: Implementation Lead
Company: Stationwise
Location: Preference for Chicago area (Hybrid: 2-3 days in person in Chicago) candidates, but also open to fully remote
At Stationwise, our mission is to help customers fight fires, not software.
We build SaaS for fire departments, starting with a staffing tool. Fire Chiefs are under immense pressure to modernize, and Stationwise helps automate much of their workforce management, payroll, and budgeting. For the average career Fire Chief, labor costs are a $15-45 million a year problem—without Stationwise, the senior staff of a fire department wastes hundreds of hours a year just to track this budget. With Stationwise, they can save time and also make real decisions from their pay data, not just log them for reports.
Our company was co-founded by Marcus Edwards, a firefighter's son, UIUC alum, and Stanford MBA, and Murat Aydos, formerly a senior staff engineer at Lyft at Udemy. Most employees are software engineers across the US and Turkey, and we’re now hiring more roles for our US-based customer team. As a venture-backed startup, we are all individual contributors who wear many hats—we promise the challenge will be great, and the chance to learn even greater.
We expect to triple our growth this year and the work you’ll be doing will be instrumental in setting the foundation for our future success as a team.
