Form of work"OUR PEOPLE ARE OUR STRATEGY"
We are searching for a Head of Sales for G4 Technologies, Reed Family Companies’ startup that is releasing its flagship product, RTDensity, which provides a game-changing solution for the crucial asphalt compaction process during road paving.
What problem are we solving?
We are on a mission to improve the quality of the over 40 million miles of roadways in the world. Asphalt density is a key metric for successful paving, but this data is often not available until after a project is complete and it is too late to make changes. Our solution — RTDensity, a patent-pending algorithm — provides real-time density readouts during compaction, taking the guesswork out of the process and allowing roller operators to get the job done right the first time. RTDensity can also be seamlessly retrofitted onto any vibratory steel drum compactor and set up in less than an hour. After using this product for years within our own companies and beta testing with our early adopter partners, we are now ready to release RTDensity to the world!
Why are we building this?
Reed Family Companies has a simple motto: “Better Roads, Better Lives.” Our infrastructure supports modern life, and our roads deserve to be built efficiently and to last. G4’s sister companies have been at the forefront of pavement preservation, emulsion equipment, and other innovations to improve roadways around the world for over a century. RTDensity is the next logical step.
