Hover helps people design, improve, and protect the properties they love. With proprietary AI built on over a decade of real property data, Hover answers age-old questions like “What will it look like?” and “What will it cost?” Homeowners, contractors, and insurance professionals rely on Hover to get fully measured, accurate, and interactive 3D models of any property — all from a smartphone scan in minutes.
At Hover, we’re driven by curiosity, purpose, and a shared commitment to serving our customers, communities, and each other. We believe the best ideas come from diverse perspectives and are proud to cultivate an inclusive, high-performance culture that inspires growth, accountability, and excellence. Backed by leading investors like Google Ventures and Menlo Ventures, and trusted by industry leaders including Travelers, State Farm, and Nationwide — we’re redefining how people understand and interact with their spaces.
Every Hover model starts with someone standing at a property, phone in hand, often in bad weather and with one shot to get it right. You will lead the engineering organization behind that moment — the camera and sensor work, the guided scanning experience, the damage documentation, and the upload path that carries it all to the cloud. This is a role for an engineering leader who cares as much about whether a person understands what we are asking them to do as about how the capture pipeline is architected. You will partner with Product and Design from the first conversation rather than the handoff, and you will help decide what our mobile capture platform becomes as Hover grows across construction and insurance.
You will lead a team of engineers and engineering managers who own Hover's mobile capture experience across iOS, Android, and React Native. You will set technical direction for mobile product development, balancing near-term delivery against long-term investment in architecture, performance, and developer velocity. You will shape the boundary between shared capture infrastructure, reusable components, and individual product experiences as our workflows multiply. You will treat reliability as a product feature — building the observability to understand what is actually happening on devices in the field, and establishing the testing, release, and quality practices that let teams ship quickly with confidence. And as a senior member of the Engineering leadership team, you will help decide where we invest and how our technology evolves.
Specifically, you will own:
