Meet TriMet Employees

"I have a cousin that works on MAX Light Rail and a brother-in-law that drives a bus. They convinced me to work at TriMet and I couldn't be more thankful for such a decision. I love being out there, rain or shine, it is always a challenge and different every time. I've met interesting people and find that there are a lot of kind and good people."
—Oscar, 2 years with TriMet

"Being an employee of TriMet has been an exciting journey. There's never a dull moment. It is my challenge to make a new rail line come to life for the community, through visuals and publications, before the rails are even put into place. And it's very fulfilling to see my creativity in event planning help people get excited about future projects. I find it facinating that little ol' me can make an impact in our community."
—Patricia, 2 years with TriMet

"Working at TriMet is an opportunity to serve the community in which I live and driving a bus is very satisfying work. It's an opportunity to be part of a very large team that provides an essential, high quality service, that links the people in the metro region to the businesses that serve them. I truly enjoy meeting people who value TriMet and those who thank me for the high level of service I help to provide, but I especially enjoy the opportunity to meet people from our diverse community. I find my work to be a highly rewarding experience."

—Bruce, 16 years with TriMet

"TriMet is a great place to work because you can really feel appreciated and it isn't back-breaking work. I think TriMet is a place where you can combine both your skills and talents to overcome challenges and achieve daily goals."
—Jacob, 6 months with TriMet

"TriMet is a great place to work. TriMet has a good benefits package with excellent pay. I have never had that in the jobs I have had before."
—Maria, 4 years with TriMet

"I have been working at TriMet for about two years now and I'm grateful to say it's been a wonderful experience. The people I work with are very professional, supportive and they are like my second family. TriMet offers me the opportunity to refresh and update my skills, both technically and interpersonally, in order to do my job more efficiently and effectively. I like the flexible hours and I could really support my family working here."
—Emma, 2 years with TriMet

"TriMet has been the best job I've ever had. I had no experience driving a bus and the training I received was awesome. I definitely recommend working at TriMet to anyone who enjoys driving and may be looking for a career change."
