Senior iOS Engineer, Home Guidance

The Home Guidance team guides a user through the home care journey by helping them understand their home and easily identify and complete their next important projects. We give customers peace of mind through an all-in-one home care experience. Successfully doing so will lead to deeper customer relationships, higher value projects and more jobs for our pros. We are building a home profile system to have a deep understanding of customers’ homes and use it to power recommendations on what projects should be prioritized. We are also working on major UX improvements to elevate the home and guide homeowners to where they should go.

The product we are building will transform Thumbtack into a one stop shop for homeowners to manage their home. You’d be working on a zero to one team where we focus on shipping new features, learn quickly from those and continue to iterate and improve. We are also investing in infrastructure needed in order to learn about our user’s home and their interest. You’d also have a chance to work on improving our recommendation systems so every home project we recommend is highly relevant to our customers.
