LA28 is the independent, non-profit, privately funded organizing committee for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. We are on a singular mission to create an Olympic and Paralympic Games that celebrate all that this city and country have to offer, delivering an unparalleled experience for athletes, fans, partners and our community.  

The 2028 Games mark the return of the Summer Games to the U.S. for the first time in 32 years and Los Angeles’ third time hosting an Olympic Games and first time welcoming the Paralympic Games. This presents the unique and exciting opportunity to celebrate our legacy with the Games and push the Olympic and Paralympic Movements forward, writing a new chapter of Games history in Los Angeles.  

Putting on an Olympic and Paralympic Games is a team sport. To build a Games unlike any the world has seen before, we need the best team in place–a team full of diverse perspectives, experiences and expertise. We are guided by the following set of values and behaviors–optimism, integrity, excellence, inclusion, co-creation and boldness–and look forward to hearing about how your past experiences align with them.

Senior Manager, Bus & Fleet Technology:

LA28’s Senior Manager, Bus & Fleet Technology will lead the planning, development, integration, and operational readiness of technology systems and applications that support LA28’s Bus and Fleet transportation services during the Olympic and Paralympic Games. This role is responsible for delivering a suite of operational technologies, including fleet management platforms, dispatch and tracking tools, scheduling systems, driver applications, journey planning solutions, and dashboards, that are reliable, scalable, and aligned with the needs of transport operations and stakeholders. 

Working within the Transport Functional Area, the role will collaborate closely with Bus and Fleet Operations, LA28 Technology, Honda, Uber, and the Games Transport Program Integrator (GTPI), as well as other third-party vendors, to define system requirements, support development and testing, and drive readiness for Games-time delivery. 

The Senior Manager will lead the integration of multiple transport technology platforms, ensuring they operate as a cohesive ecosystem across the Bus Operations Center (BOC), Fleet Operations Center (FOC), depots, and field environments. This includes coordinating the delivery of transport technology and data feeds into Games-wide operational settings such as the Main Operations Center (MOC), Transport Operations Center (TROC), and centralized dashboards, enabling timely, accurate, and actionable information for real-time decision-making. 

The role requires strong technical and operational judgment, the ability to manage complex integrations, and a collaborative approach to working across functional areas and external partners. 

During Games-time, the Senior Manager will support live technology performance, monitor system outputs and dashboards, and enable bus and fleet teams with the tools needed to deliver safe, efficient, and data-informed transport services. 

The ideal candidate will be strategic, proactive, and highly organized, capable of overseeing interdependent bus and fleet systems and operational workstreams, resolving complex issues, and guiding teams with autonomy. The Senior Manager, Bus & Fleet Technology will report directly to their  manager within the Transport Functional Area, while operating within a matrix structure that includes deliverables accountability to Directors across both Bus Operations and Fleet Operations. The role will also collaborate closely with leaders across Transport, as well as the Technology and Readiness Functional Areas.
