Connect. Hire. Thrive
Connecting the wildland fire community, The Journeyman offers a mobile app designed to streamline hiring, training, and resource management—built by wildland firefighters, for the industry.
A Union Forged in Fire
At The Journeyman, Tyler Olson and Brennan Holloway, bring a rare blend of frontline experience and innovative entrepreneurship to the wildland fire industry. Both Rapid City natives, their paths diverged into the United States Marines, where they developed a keen sense of discipline and a passion for emergency medicine. Tyler, after serving in Okinawa, Japan, and Brennan, an Avionics Technician on Sikorsky Helicopters, both discovered their calling in emergency medicine, albeit through different routes.
Their military service, coupled with subsequent careers in emergency medical services, laid a robust foundation for understanding the critical needs of fire safety and emergency medical support. Their shared experiences, from the front lines of wildland fires to the complexities of running an EMS company, highlighted the inefficiencies and challenges within the industry.
The duo's latest venture, The Journeyman, is a direct response to these challenges. Inspired by their firsthand experiences, Tyler and Brennan sought to create a platform that addresses the unique needs of the wildland fire community. The Journeyman is not just software; it's a mission to enhance connectivity, streamline hiring processes, and offer comprehensive training solutions.
It's built on the principle of understanding the pains and problems of those on the ground and those managing the operations from a distance. The platform stands as a testament to their unwavering commitment to improving the wildland fire industry, making it more accessible, efficient, and integrated.
Our software, with its intuitive interface and efficient features, aims to foster a healthy wildland fire community by connecting workers with industry businesses seamlessly. It simplifies the job hiring process, even on short notice, aligns year-round training opportunities, and optimizes resource usage with logical, user-friendly solutions.
By addressing the main reoccurring issues such as pay, certification retention, and the need for a centralized hiring platform, The Journeyman directly tackles the qualitative and quantitative pains expressed by both employees and businesses in the industry.
The platform embodies our unique understanding of the wildland fire space, developed through years of personal experience and professional growth. As we move forward, The Journeyman continues to evolve, driven by our passion for the industry and our commitment to providing practical, impactful solutions.
