People Operations Partner

LENS • Los Angeles, CA

13d

About The Position

LENS's mission is to end traffic accidents by detecting hazards and preventing them before they happen. LENS Detect scans CCTV feeds on highways to identify hazards in real-time. Public Safety agencies and Departments of Transportation receive alerts on the LENS Detect dashboard about Disabled Vehicles, Stalled Big Rigs, and Pedestrians on Freeway. A dispatcher reviews and validates the detection, and then dispatches an officer to the scene to assist the person in need, ultimately preventing accidents or saving lives. This role is for someone who seeks transformational change and believes that accidents can and should be prevented when the root cause can be known in advance. You will work with fellow Preventers who share this core belief, using LENS to prevent accidents and save lives.
