First is fundamentally changing the real estate industry.  We believe that operational excellence will be key to our success and will be driven by constant improvement as well as bold game changing innovations. 

 

As one of our early engineers, you’ll help guide key design, architecture, and technology decisions. You will be a part of our platform team, helping us to build a platform to support our customer-facing and internal applications. You will help us to scale the system to meet the needs of our expanding userbase. This includes driving the product roadmap, bringing “design thinking” on product features, coordinating development efforts across the team, and working with the front-end team to ensure that our efforts are aligned.

* Passion for startups and building products that will be used to change the face of real estate
