GoVibe · Toronto · Now hiring

Toronto Field Captain

Contractor · $20–25 CAD/hr · starting June 2026

GoVibe is an early-stage city data platform built on top of ecopia spatial AI. We're hiring 1–2 Field Captains as paid contractors in Toronto. This is not a delivery gig and not a research assistant role — you're the first GoVibe person physically in the city, meaning you partly shape how the Toronto playbook gets written.

Compensation

$20 CAD/hr base + up to $300/month performance bonus, tied to (a) data acceptance rate ≥75%, (b) submissions in scarce zones, (c) one event/community deliverable per month.

10–15 hrs/week, flexible. T4A contractor (you invoice us). Initial 3-month contract with a 30-day mutual trial. You also accumulate standard GP/CaP credits on your own POI submissions (GoVibe contributor economics; explained at offer).

Progression — visible from day 1

Best Field Captains get promoted to Neighborhood Captain at month 3–6 ($22/hr + up to $500/mo bonus + Captain badge). M9 candidates for City Lead or a city N+1 launch ($25/hr → transition to a salaried role at M12).

One "Founding Captain" recognition is reserved for whoever is still active and performing at M6 — one slot max, performance-decided, vests forward 12 months.

What you'll actually do (M1–M4)

  • Walk 3–5 Toronto neighborhoods (Kensington/Chinatown, Distillery, UofT St. George, Junction, East York) and capture sample POIs on your phone
  • Sit in on 2–3 creator coffee meetups per week, take notes, help close
  • Maintain a small Toronto Scout Discord as it grows
  • Run 1–2 City Scout Day events/month from M2
  • Flag QA issues — bad submissions, unclear instructions, app bugs

GoVibe is pre-product-market-fit. The work shape will change. We'll iterate on tasks, payment, and scheduling, and ask for your feedback. If GoVibe doesn't reach key milestones, the role doesn't extend past 3 months. This is closer to "joining an expedition" than "taking a part-time job."
