Why Join Hover?
At Hover, 3D models are not just a feature; they are the essence of our product. Each scan and data point we process empowers homeowners, insurers, and contractors to make informed, data-driven decisions. We are seeking a Software Engineer who has a passion for geometry, automation, and making a tangible impact in the real world. In this role, you will design and implement systems that convert customer-captured imagery into meticulously accurate 3D models, enhancing the scalability and precision of Hover’s modeling pipeline. You will work collaboratively with designers and engineers across frontend, backend, computer vision, and DevOps to bring innovative capabilities to fruition, blending technical expertise with strong communication and cross-functional collaboration.
The 3D Modeling Pipeline team develops the tools essential for our in-house operations to transform customer-captured scans into highly detailed, accurate 3D models of buildings. This team is also responsible for creating the pipeline and systems that process 3D data through both automated and manual steps, as well as exporting data into customer-facing formats.
Your Contributions Will Include:
- Owning and evolving backend systems that convert raw scan data into exact 3D models, ensuring timely delivery to key ecosystem partners like Xactimate and Cotality.
- Building and refining internal modeling tools that enable teams to efficiently generate, validate, and optimize high-quality 3D data.
- Collaborating with machine learning and computer vision engineers to implement new algorithms into production, bridging research with practical applications.
- Enhancing customer and partner experiences by improving how Hover’s 3D outputs integrate with downstream workflows and external platforms.
- Promoting innovation and ongoing enhancement across our modeling pipeline.
