Job description

Households are squeezed. Bills are up, the grid is straining under AI data center load, and the cheapest new megawatt isn't a power plant. It's a home that wastes less.

The country needs millions of homes upgraded in the next decade, and almost no one knows where to start. HomeBoost is the answer for the homeowner. We hand them a thermal camera, walk them through a guided scan, and return a personalized video and a report that tells them what to fix and what dollars are sitting on the table.

Utilities and libraries distribute us at scale. The DOE has approved our methodology. Customers refer their neighbors.

We are hiring our next experienced Full Stack Engineer. You'll be helping homeowners and small businesses in week one.

US: $170,000 - $200,000 (USD) + equity + benefits

???? WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON

You'll own features end to end: product discussions, architecture, implementation, deployment, and iteration with customers.

In your first quarter you might:

  • Extend our proprietary recipe engine that interprets thermal camera scans
  • Improve the report generation pipeline that turns a homeowner's scan into a personalized video
  • Wire up the contractor marketplace where vetted insulation and HVAC pros connect to homeowners at the moment they're ready to act

You'll have meaningful surface area across the Python backend and React frontend from day one., * Use AI in your daily workflow. AI-assisted development is part of how we work. You should already be using tools like Claude Code to ship software faster while maintaining quality., Cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure), containers, auth and security hygiene, data pipelines, and software architecture trade-offs you can reason through.

? WHY THIS ROLE

You'll work directly with Selina Tobaccowala (CEO, founder of Evite, former President and CTO of SurveyMonkey) and a small founding team. We're backed by leading investors including True Ventures, Gigascale Capital, and Moxxie Ventures.

The work is technically real: proprietary models, real-world hardware, and a product customers actually want.

Our interview is short, structured, and transparent. You'll know what we're looking for and where you stand throughout.

Requirements

  • Have 4+ years of Python experience or equivalent. Async, type hints, real tests. Django, Flask, or FastAPI.
  • Ship React and TypeScript to production. Comfortable taking features from spec to ship.
  • Have strong SQL fundamentals. Postgres preferred. You design schemas you would want to inherit.
  • Have used ORMs against a live database. You know how to reason about query plans, migrations, and their trade-offs.
