We are looking for talented designers and engineers to help us make our site gorgeous and intuitive.

A bit about BuildZoom, and why you might want to work here:

With the tap of a button, we will send 1 or more contractors to your door, in as little as an hour. We support virtually any construction project, from a small electrical outlet installation to a $1,000,000 home overhaul; commercial or residential.

We are making software to help people build - their dream home, their dream restaurant, their dream workplace.

The best thing about BuildZoom isn’t our product, though. It’s our incredible team, and our supportive environment focused on learning, teaching, building cool features that people actually use, and generally being an enjoyable place to spend your days.

What do a Director of Engineering for Thompson Reuters, a college football player, A Ukranian refugee, a daughter of a Boer farmer in Zambia, a retired general contractor, a scooter salesman, a Stanford PhD, a Berkeley economist, and a Duke Lawyer have in common? One of each works at Buildzoom.

We are currently distributing over $1 billion/year in projects, with over 1 million website visitors per month in the United States alone. These numbers are big. We're proud of our progress, but construction is 10% of planet earth’s GDP, so they are going to get a lot bigger.

One of the unique things about BuildZoom’s marketplace is that it sits on top of an incredible dataset of over 100 million building permits, which provide us with insights about contractors.

We use the dataset to improve the quality of our marketplace, and to build useful tools for property owners.

Here are some of the projects we are working on:
