The Boring Company is evaluating a simple, precursor Hyperloop tunnel between Austin and San Antonio capable of speeds greater than 200 mph. Due to traffic congestion, that journey currently takes up to 2.5 hours. The Boring Company can reduce it to a consistent less than 30 minutes.
We are looking for an operations leader to oversee the rigorous planning and potential construction/operation of a Texas Hyperloop.
