Hover is making the homeowner journey easy, transparent and fun. Starting with the home improvement industry, we’re answering age-old questions like, “What is it going to look like?” and “What is it going to cost?”, by helping homeowners and pros visualize what’s possible with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and interactive 3D property models. Homeowners, contractors, and insurance professionals all use Hover to get fully measured, accurate, and interactive models of any property—in a matter of minutes, and with just a few snaps of a smartphone camera.
Join a team that is rooted in challenging the status quo, persistence, and dedicated to serving our employees, customers, and communities. With key investors, including Google Ventures and Menlo Ventures and leading insurance carriers such as Travelers, State Farm, and Nationwide, Hover is committed to changing the world, one home at a time. At Hover, we believe there is strength in diversity and are fostering an inclusive and diverse culture by hiring qualified, talented people from a wide variety of backgrounds.
At Hover, we’re building modern tools that simplify complex workflows in the construction and insurance industries. We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Construction vertical—someone who’s excited to work on real-world problems and ship software that helps thousands of pros scope jobs, plan projects, and deliver better outcomes for homeowners.
You’ll bring strong technical fundamentals, product thinking, and a collaborative mindset. You’ll take ownership of features end-to-end, help shape how we build, and grow your leadership through influence—not just code. This role is ideal for someone ready to step into more responsibility, drive outcomes with cross-functional partners, and contribute to the technical roadmap of a high-impact team.
Our Construction vertical powers some of Hover’s most successful and revenue-generating products. We’re a close-knit, high-energy team of engineers passionate about building tech that modernizes and simplifies construction workflows. Our team blends deep industry knowledge with modern software practices to deliver tools that save time and reduce friction for our customers on the job site.
You’ll be part of a team that values trust, autonomy, and impact, where good ideas rise fast and great execution gets recognized. From junior developers to staff engineers, we invest in each other’s growth. You’ll benefit from a strong culture of mentorship, regular refactor hours, professional development stipends, and a commitment to learning. You’ll also be part of a company where your voice matters—where you can directly influence product direction and technical architecture.
As a Senior Software Engineer on Hover’s Construction and Insurance teams, you’ll be a core contributor to the tools that power our professional user experience—from capturing and measuring homes to creating and delivering estimates. You’ll write production-grade code across the stack using technologies like Ruby on Rails, React, GraphQL, and cloud-native tooling. You’ll collaborate closely with cross-functional partners in Product, Design, and Data to define what we build and how we build it.
You’ll lead scoped projects end-to-end, contribute to technical planning, and take ownership of delivering features that meet customer needs. From building polished UIs to modeling backend systems and designing APIs, your work will help shape the daily experience of pros and carriers across the country. You’ll also contribute to a healthy engineering culture by mentoring teammates, improving processes, and helping the team grow through feedback and collaboration.
Hover has Hubs in San Francisco and New York City, where we expect that all employees living within a 50-mile radius of our offices will come into their local Hover office at least three times a week to build rapport and foster organic connection. At this time, Hover is not considering fully remote roles.
