Company mission
To help builders create better homes and communities, more affordably.
Role
Who you are
- You’re a pragmatic engineer who takes pride in delivering solid features to real users — and you care about the craft of building software that’s maintainable and resilient. You like working in a mature, complex codebase and improving it as you go. You enjoy debugging just as much as building new things — because both lead to better outcomes for your users
- You might not be an expert (yet) in geometric modeling — things like meshes, BReps, or NURBS — but you're curious. If you just researched some of those and got even more excited about this opportunity, you're our kind of developer
- 3+ years of experience building production web applications
- Solid skills in TypeScript, React, and Redux
- Experience working in and improving large front-end / full-stack codebases
- Interest in 3D graphics, visual tools, or design software (bonus if you’ve worked with WebGL or WebGPU)
- A user-focused mindset: you care about the impact your work has on real people
- Strong communication skills and a collaborative spirit
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer to help build and improve the powerful web-based design app at the heart of our platform. You’ll develop new features, squash bugs, and make meaningful improvements to a complex TypeScript/React/Redux codebase — all with an eye toward delivering real value to our users: homebuilders designing real homes for real people
- Build features: Implement user-facing functionality that helps homebuilders design, customize, and visualize homes faster and more accurately
- Fix bugs and edge cases: Chase down tricky bugs and unexpected behavior in a large, real-world production system
- Improve the codebase: Refactor and evolve a mature React + TypeScript codebase to make it more maintainable, efficient, and friendly for future contributors
- Collaborate across disciplines: Work closely with engineering teammates, product managers, and customer success to ensure what you ship is grounded in real-world user needs
- Test with purpose: Write tests that increase confidence and prevent regressions
- Grow and elevate: Contribute to a team culture that values curiosity, pragmatism, and thoughtful improvement
Our take
The housing market is trending toward a recession, signaling the return to a buyers’ market. This should be great news for buyers, but the current housing shortage means most new builds lack customization, as reduced variability allows builders to anticipate and quickly execute new builds.
Higharc’s software automates and optimizes every step of the home building process, creating a fully customizable 3D model that is seamlessly translated into blueprints, resulting in better-built homes by eliminating material waste and costly errors, and saving consumers from cookie-cutter houses.
The all-in-one homebuilding platform raised additional funding in early 2024, with a strategic investment from Spark Capital. This addition will help the company further optimize its offerings and fuel its growth.
