As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be responsible for designing and building scalable backend services and APIs that drive our mobile platform. You will continuously enhance reliability, performance, and observability throughout the entire stack. Your role includes drafting clear technical specifications, contributing to architectural decisions, and thoughtfully evolving systems with an eye toward testing and long-term maintainability. You will troubleshoot complex issues that span backend and mobile platforms, engage in collaborative pairing and design discussions, and work closely with Engineering, Product, Design, and QA to deliver impactful features informed by real user feedback. This work will be pivotal in strengthening the foundation of Hover’s mobile experience and supporting our growth.

About the job

At Hover, we empower individuals to design, enhance, and safeguard the properties they cherish. Utilizing our proprietary AI, developed over more than a decade of extensive real estate data, we address pivotal queries such as “What will it look like?” and “What will it cost?”. Homeowners, contractors, and insurance experts depend on Hover for precise measurements and interactive 3D models of properties, all achievable through a quick smartphone scan.

Driven by curiosity and purpose, our team is dedicated to serving our customers and communities. We believe that the best innovations stem from diverse perspectives and take pride in fostering an inclusive, high-performance culture that encourages growth, accountability, and excellence. Supported by renowned investors like Google Ventures and Menlo Ventures, and trusted by industry leaders such as Travelers, State Farm, and Nationwide, we are transforming how people perceive and interact with their environments.

Why Hover Wants You

We are in search of a proactive full-stack engineer who is committed to crafting reliable, high-quality systems that create real-world impact.

Our Mobile team comprises a close-knit group of engineers specializing in Rails, iOS, React Native, and Android, all of whom are dedicated to their craft and customer experience. We develop and refine the mobile platform that is central to Hover’s operations — the systems that convert real-world property data into accurate 3D models and measurements, utilized daily by contractors and insurers. We collaborate seamlessly across engineering, product, and design to enhance core customer journeys while scaling our platform with confidence.

In this role, you will engage with all layers of the technology stack — designing scalable backend APIs, optimizing data flows, and enhancing user-friendly frontend experiences — all aimed at building products that are high-performing, resilient, and meticulously designed. If you are excited by the challenge of solving intricate system problems and want your contributions to have a visible, measurable effect, this is where you can excel.
