Software Engineer

About the company

Moab is a seed stage company founded by early employees of Ramp and Uber.

We're funded by a top Bay Area venture firm and a leading industry-focused venture firm.

Moab is building heavy equipment rental and dealer management software with the aim to automate all aspects of running these businesses - including managing inventory, orders, billing, service, repair, dispatch, and accounting.

The equipment dealer and rental market is an integral part of the multi-trillion dollar construction, agriculture, and logistics industries. It is currently under served by antiquated, incumbent software solutions - most of which were incepted in the 1980's and 1990's.

Our ultimate goal is to connect everyone who is selling, buying, renting, servicing, or utilizing equipment. We're starting by building a new system-of-record for equipment rental businesses that will increase back office efficiency and generate additional front office revenue.

The founding team has deep expertise in building and selling B2B SaaS. It's comprised of:
