Job Details

Overview

Our mission at Doorvest is to advance financial security for all. For decades, access to high-quality single-family real estate has been reserved for the wealthy, leaving out everyday individuals from participating in the #1 source of American wealth.

We've designeda full-stack, vertically integrated model that aligns incentives with stakeholders and offers a seamless way to own high-yield rental homes entirely online. As we succeed together, we will play a key role in closing the wealth gap.

To date, we've raised $20M from founders and executives at top fintech companies such as Invitation Homes, Wealthfront, Opendoor, and many others — and we've recently accelerated our growth through strategic acquisitions of property management companies and technology platforms.

Join a leading proptech company that's leveling the playing field for financial security

At Doorvest, we care about lowering the barrier to building long-term wealth by simplifying the process of real estate investment. We are constantly streamlining our operations to create an optimal experience for stakeholders at every point of our business.

As we expand our reach through organic growth and property management acquisitions, we're seeking a Senior Software Engineer to help bring this vision to life. This role works across our full stack with a significant focus on integrations — connecting property management systems, real estate data providers, and financial service partners into Doorvest's platform. You'll also build the internal operations tooling that powers our property management team, from pipeline boards and case management workflows to AI-assisted communication tools.

If you're passionate about leveraging technology to democratize real estate investment — and excited to shape how modern engineering can unlock financial opportunities for everyone — we'd love to meet you.

The Role — A day in the life of a Senior Software Engineer at Doorvest

As a senior software engineer, you'll use your expertise in TypeScript and Node.js to build systems that directly impact how we operate and how our customers build wealth. At Doorvest, you'll have true ownership over large portions of our product as you implement customer-facing features, internal ops tools, and integration infrastructure. You'll work directly with leadership including the CTO and Head of Product to shape our technical vision and build scalable solutions for our growing property management portfolio.

Full-Stack Development

• Design, develop, and maintain serverless applications using Next.js, TypeScript, and AWS Lambda
• Build responsive, user-friendly interfaces for both customers and internal operations teams
• Develop internal tools — pipeline boards, case management systems, dashboards — that empower our ops team to manage leasing, renewals, move-outs, delinquency, and compliance workflows at scale
• Implement data analytics and monitoring systems to measure business and operational performance

Data Integration & System Connectivity

• Own end-to-end integration of external systems including property management platforms (e.g., Rentvine), MLS data feeds, mortgage APIs, and financial service providers
• Design robust integration pipelines to normalize and transform diverse datasets — property listings, rental income data, market analytics, loan information — from various external sources
• Build reusable integration frameworks that streamline onboarding of new property management companies and data providers as we scale through acquisitions
• Develop monitoring and alerting systems to ensure integration reliability and data consistency

AI & Automation

• Build and improve AI-powered tools that help our operations team work faster — including systems that draft owner communications, process property documents, and surface actionable insights from unstructured data
• Leverage LLMs to automatically process and structure real estate data from documents, emails, and legacy systems
• Identify high-leverage opportunities for process automation across our property management and investment pipeline
• Use AI-powered development tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot to accelerate development cycles and maintain high code quality

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work closely with the CTO and Head of Product to shape technical strategy and product direction
• Partner with Operations to understand workflow pain points and translate them into clean, scalable technical solutions
• Proactively identify integration issues, data inconsistencies, or technical debt and recommend long-term architectural solutions
• Collaborate with external partners to understand their APIs, troubleshoot issues, and influence their roadmaps when needed

Tech Stack — What's currently in our toolbox

• Frontend: Next.js, React, TypeScript, Material UI
• Data: Supabase, DynamoDB, AWS Aurora
• Integration: REST APIs, webhooks, real-time data streaming

Familiarity with the above tools is preferred, but a strong foundation in system integrations, API development, and TypeScript/Node.js is most critical.

Who We're Looking For

• Systems Thinker: You excel at understanding complex integration challenges while executing well-scoped technical solutions. You understand the nuances of connecting real-world financial and real estate systems — and you know that reliable data flows are the foundation everything else is built on.
• Full-Stack Builder: You work comfortably across the entire technology stack, from building intuitive interfaces to designing robust backend systems. You can ship a customer-facing feature in the morning and debug an integration pipeline in the afternoon.
• Internal Tools Champion: You understand that great internal tooling is a force multiplier. You're excited to build the systems that help an ops team of 10 operate like a team of 50 — pipeline boards, case management, workflow automations, and dashboards that people actually use.
• AI-Driven Engineer: You're already using AI to accelerate your workflow — whether that's Claude Code for development, LLMs for processing messy real estate data, or AI-assisted tools for prototyping. You see AI as a core part of how modern engineering teams ship, not a novelty.
• Reliable Owner: You take pride in building systems that just work and owning them end-to-end — ensuring robustness, scalability, and ease of maintenance. You understand that behind every seamless experience is architecture someone cared about.
• Collaborative Partner: You communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical colleagues. You can turn a conversation with an ops manager about their workflow into a well-architected solution — and you enjoy that translation work.
• Experienced Developer: 3+ years of experience in full-stack engineering or backend development, with expertise in TypeScript/Node.js. Bonus for previous work with property management systems, real estate technology, or third-party API integrations.

Does this sound like you?

We encourage you to apply if most of these describe your work style:

• A curious and collaborative approach to software development. You're eager to learn new technologies, solve complex integration challenges, and share knowledge with the team.

You leverage AI-powered coding assistants to accelerate development while maintaining code quality.

• Whether through pair-programming sessions, code reviews, or introducing new tools and AI-enhanced workflows, you're constantly looking for opportunities to push the company forward.

A history of leading projects to success with an ownership mentality.

• You take projects from conception through delivery, understanding that integration work requires both technical excellence and strong project management.
• Doorvest team members are granted significant autonomy and we expect high levels of ownership.

Balances technical depth with business impact.

• You thrive in a fast-paced environment where your work directly impacts our customers' ability to build wealth through real estate investment. You understand that behind every seamless user experience is robust, scalable architecture and reliable integrations.
