Garage is a marketplace for specialized vehicles and equipment, starting with emergency vehicles. By automating every part of the transaction—including payments, freight, paperwork, warranty, and financing—we reduce what used to take months down to minutes. We're building the modern platform that powers commerce across America’s essential industries.
We recently closed a $13.5M Series A ($18M in total funding) from Infinity Ventures, Y Combinator, Initialized Capital, FJ Labs, and other top investors. In less than a year, our team has already served customers in all 50 states – and we’re just getting started.
As the Office Manager, you’ll be the operational backbone of our New York City headquarters, ensuring our team has an exceptional in-person experience every single day. You’ll own the systems, logistics, and details that keep a high-performance office running smoothly - from managing vendors and stocking the kitchen to coordinating team celebrations and preparing the office for company events.
This is a highly hands-on role for someone who loves creating organized, welcoming, and efficient environments. You’ll work cross-functionally with every team at the company and play a key role in shaping the day-to-day employee experience as we scale.
