About Opendoor
Founded in 2014, Opendoor’s mission is to empower everyone with the freedom to move. We believe the traditional real estate process is broken and our goal is simple: build a digital, end-to-end customer experience that makes buying and selling a home simple, certain and fast. We have assembled a dedicated team with diverse backgrounds to support more than 100,000 homes bought and sold with us and the customers who have selected Opendoor as a trusted partner in handling one of their largest financial transactions. But the work is far from over as we continue to grow in new markets. Transforming the real estate industry takes tenacity and dedication. It takes problem solvers and builders. It takes a tight knit community of teammates doing the best work of their lives, pushing one another to transform a complicated process into a simple one. So where do you fit in? Whether you’re passionate about real estate, people, numbers, words, code, or strategy -- we have a place for you. Real estate is broken. Come help us fix it.

About the Team

This is a very unique opportunity to experience the speed, excitement, and ownership of a startup, with all the support and resources of a larger company like Opendoor.

The Exclusives team is looking for a Senior Front-end Engineer to help lead the development of the Exclusives product. In addition to working with products to plan and build out the user experience, we’re looking for someone to bring their startup mentality to set and drive a vision for frontend development on the team.

  • Investigate and propose new technologies and libraries that help the team deliver value to our users faster and more reliably.
  • Work closely with our operations team to identify ways that technology can remove friction and allow them to more efficiently help our customers.

Skills Needed:

  • Expert knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript, React, HTML5, and CSS
  • 6+ years building and delivering high quality, user-centered software solutions
  • Ability to write high-performance, reusable code for UI components
  • Experience building large, modular and maintainable JavaScript code bases
  • Knowledge of responsive design principles and mobile-first development
