JOB DESCRIPTION

Dwelo is changing the way people live and work in apartments. We are building a reliable, secure, and ever-growing smart device platform for rental housing. Dwelo enables apartment residents to live in a smart home and owners and managers to improve the operational efficiency of their properties. Residents in Dwelo communities can control their locks, lights, thermostats and more from their Dwelo mobile and voice apps, while managers use Dwelo's web portal to reduce property-wide energy use, streamline access for staff, and limit the risk of leaks and extreme temperature events. Our commitment to customer experience has helped us grow more than 20x the last three years, and we have raised $25M to achieve our vision. Dwelo is being installed in over 200 communities across the country from Miami to Seattle, and major companies are trying to emulate our success. What we do is new, what we do is hard, and what we do is fun - and we want you to join us!

We are a growing team making a lot happen as the leaders in this space. Our team members are former military, university grads, founders, ex-CTOs, entry-level, and experienced hands. We welcome folks who come from all backgrounds and all walks of life, just like our customers. What we have in common is a commitment to ownership, being inclusive, having a growth mindset, and being biased towards communication. We challenge each other, and know when to have fun, too.
