CurbWaste  is on a mission : to modernize the waste and recycling industry. We're a venture backed company raising $50M+ by top tier investors. We work with over 150+ customers using CurbWaste’s all in one solution to transform their businesses. We have a lot more to do, becoming the system of record to one of the most critical industries in the world and support the hard working people of the waste industry.

Our customers love us almost as much as we love them (with a proud NPS score of 80+!)

We were honored as the SMB Tech Top 50 and continue to push boundaries as the up and coming solution for waste haulers around the US.

We're looking for big thinkers and humble warriors.

Our core values we live by :

  • Serve our customers, serve our industry
  • Be infinitely curious
  • Resourcefulness over resources
  • Win as a team, learn as a team
  • Do the 1% more

You'll be the architect of our operational infrastructure. This isn't about maintaining the status quo—you'll be building systems, processes, and teams while keeping the trucks running. You'll work directly with our founders and leadership team to identify operational bottlenecks, design solutions, and execute with urgency. This role is perfect for someone who gets energized by chaos and thrives on turning ambiguity into clarity.
