About the Role

We are seeking an experienced full-stack engineer with a passion for social impact to help build a nimble, global emergency response program. In this role, you will design and deliver technology that helps nonprofit partners secure emergency housing, grows a global supply of free or discounted housing for people in crisis, and supports fundraising efforts. You will join a small, collaborative team in a fast-moving space, where priorities can shift quickly in response to world events and policy changes. The work you ship will directly support communities when they need it most.
