We’re Changing the Rentals Industry

We’re a profitable, growth-stage company building industry-leading martech and data SaaS products for the rentals industry. While originally known for building and operating one of the U.S.’s largest rental marketplaces - Rentable, we recently launched a martech product and a competitive intelligence software - ApartmentIQ, both with high growth rates. 

We’re a 100% remote team of 100 spread across the U.S. from coast to coast. While we enjoy the flexibility of remote work, we get the entire department together 3 times a year to have fun and work hard in person. 

While we’ve raised $30MM+ to date from some of the world’s best investors, we’re profitable with a strong balance sheet and an indefinite runway. We pride ourselves on achieving rapid growth without having to incinerate capital. 

If you like the idea of joining an industry-changing company made up of people who genuinely like each other, ApartmentIQ could be a great fit for you.

The Role

We’re looking for an experienced Lead Data Engineer to help us build robust, scalable, and innovative solutions for our data-driven initiatives. You will lead two other engineers and play a pivotal role in architecting systems, managing projects, and delivering high-quality software that meets our business goals. While we primarily use python for data collection, we use ruby for our core application. ApartmentIQ is the industry’s only source of daily, unit-level competitive intelligence. With four years of public data and over 30 million units tracked nationwide, ApartmentIQ provides unmatched insights for multifamily operators.

If you are a highly motivated, results-oriented individual with a passion for growth and thrive in a fast-paced startup environment, we would love to hear from you. Join our team and help shape the future of our exciting company!
