The Company

Metropolis is an AI and computer vision start-up building the technological and real estate infrastructure to facilitate the future of mobility. 

Your opportunity 

This is your opportunity to join early and build something remarkable at the intersection of technology, mobility, and real estate. We are reimagining the parking experience today but developing an ecosystem to support all forms of mobility tomorrow; and if you have a passion for transforming the urban landscape to more intelligently facilitate EV charging, last mile transport, autonomous vehicles, and even electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL), please consider joining us. 

Our team

The Company is led by an experienced executive team with diverse backgrounds, including a successful LA-based tech founder, a technical leader from eHarmony and DogVacay, and senior professionals from major global financial services firms and the world’s leading mobility companies; our first-class engineering talent joins us from Google, Palantir, Rubicon Project, Honey, Canoo, and others. 

Copywriter

The company seeks a copywriter to support a wide variety of projects across signage, marketing, branded events, PR communications, scripts and more. The ideal candidate infuses Metropolis’s core values across customer and asset copy: we are thoughtful, clever and inspiring, we are bold and adventurous, we challenge assumptions, and we create remarkable experiences. As the company’s first dedicated Copywriter, you will be instrumental in shaping the Metropolis voice, as well as building the organizational structure to ensure local teams can use your copy to “Metropolize” new locations across the country.

The Copywriter will be responsible for creating copy for operations signage, along with marketing, network growth and sales collateral. These assets will live in digital and physical mediums and play a critical role in building a relationship with visitors, asset owners, and the public at large.

In this role you will also be challenged to reimagine the visitor experience in an industry that has seen little to no innovation in decades. Our goal is for customers to visit our locations and immediately realize — based primarily on your work — that they are in no ordinary facility.

  • Elevate proposals with clear, narrative-driven copy.
  • Work on scripts for content creation, field teams and advertisements.
  • Influence the evolution of how Metropolis presents itself visually across all visitor touchpoints.
  • Identify copy needs and establish creative copy style guides.

Requirements and Qualifications

  • 3+ years work experience as a copywriter or in a relevant field.
  • Compelling portfolio of digital and physical work.
  • Strong skills in brand building through copywriting.
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills.
  • Ability to work with a low-ego, highly collaborative, cross-functional team.
  • Excited about working in a fast-paced, dynamic startup environment.

Benefits

  • Attractive compensation and generous benefits package (100% Medical, 50% Vision and 50% Dental)
  • Company 401(k) match up to 6% of salary
  • Paid company snacks and after-hour meals

An Insider's view of Metropolis Technologies

What's the biggest problem your team is solving?

Building a network of technology-enabled real estate. We use machine vision, IoT, apps, and distributed computing to blur the boundary of the physical and digital world. Every day is a challenge and a ton of fun.

Bryant

Director of Product

What makes someone successful on your team?

The engineers that are successful on our team know how to focus on not only the technical implementation but also have the ability to deliver results that match the product vision and business needs. Ultimately the more the individual contributes to team success the more they will achieve individual success.

Jamie

Director of Engineering

What is your vision for the company?

If you believe that at some point there will be a critical mass of vehicles on the road that are autonomous, there needs to be tech-enabled infrastructure for that ecosystem to function. We want to transform what has always been a narrowly defined parking business into a mobility company that powers every component of the mobility ecosystem.

Courtney

Co-Founder & Chief Administrative Officer

What’s the vibe like in the office?

We have one of the best offices in Santa Monica - an entire floor in the Telephone Building with awesome breakout and game rooms. We have lots of fun team building moments and I think our team culture is something everyone at Metropolis is really proud of.
