Garage remote jobs and company guide

Garage is a modern, AI-powered marketplace designed to streamline how specialized equipment, such as fire trucks and emergency vehicles, is bought and sold. The platform automates every part of the transaction—including payments, freight, paperwork, warranty, and financing—reducing what used to take months down to minutes. Founded by Martin Hunt and Alaz Sengul, Garage was born out of firsthand experience in the fire service, aiming to fix the fragmented and inefficient process of managing surplus assets for local governments and first responders. Before Garage, these transactions often occurred offline through outdated regional auctions or informal networks, leading to inefficiencies and limited access to necessary equipment.

The company is backed by Y Combinator, Infinity Ventures, Initialized Capital, and others. Garage is filling a critical gap in the market by providing a centralized platform for high-value transactions in underserved industries. The platform handles the full lifecycle of the sale: AI-based appraisals, integrated payments, freight quotes, and national reach for the equipment listed. They are already being used by hundreds of fire departments across all 50 states, impacting the well-being of millions of Americans. Compared to previous approaches, they also don't take inventory risk on the equipment being traded. The team is composed of experienced professionals from companies like Twitter, Ramp, Goldman Sachs, and PayPal, bringing operational rigor and technical expertise to the public safety sector.
