The following is a recently posted open position at MapQuest. We work closely with the company and are excited by the transformation underway there:

MapQuest Director of Mobile Product and Technology (Denver)

Want to work in a startup-like environment that already has a very strong brand, has 40M monthly unique visitors, is one of the top 25 web properties, and doesn’t worry about making payroll?

Led by a new leadership team brought on board last year to move the business beyond just maps and directions, MapQuest is looking to transform itself and retake its rightful place as an industry leader in the local discovery and travel space. In order to finish the transformation to a fact-paced innovation machine, MapQuest is looking to add talented and energetic people, including an entrepreneurial Director of Mobile Product and Technology (aka our Mobile Czar).

If you’re up for a challenge and have the hunger to be part of potentially one of the greatest turnaround stories in the tech industry, MapQuest is the place for you. This position is based in either lower downtown Denver or Boulder.

As the Mobile Czar, you will lead our Mobile Division with responsibility for all Product Management decisions. A candidate for this role must have experience designing and developing mobile applications, the ability to do technical deep-dives into the code and design, the aesthetic sense to guide the designers, and the business acumen to develop the larger product strategy with the new MapQuest executive team.
