About Ohana
Our mission is to give everyone the freedom to live where they want, when they want. For guests, Ohana provides the freedom to transition to the place they want to live; for hosts, the peace of mind that their rent is covered by a trusted subtenant.
Founded in 2023, we're backed by Neo, Wave Capital, Lightbank, and 75 & Sunny — including Zillow's co-founder & CEO and Airbnb's Head of Payments, Data Science, Engineering, and M&A.
About the role
In this AI era, defensible businesses have a real network of humans that love and rely on the product.
We’ve built that network of 135k users and a product that allows people to earn ~$80M per year. We’re hiring an engineer to take what we’ve learned and help us build the next version of Ohana, which includes a completely fresh tech stack and mobile app.
This role is perfect for someone with 5+ years of experience who loves building products that help hundreds of thousands of people. The ideal candidate has built their own mobile app (ideally in the pre-AI era), designed a tech stack from end to end, and is excited to join a team that consistently wins through product creativity.
What you'll do
- Understand the fundamentals and iterate on our existing product
- Help the team design and develop our mobile app
- Design and implement scalable backend systems
- Own features end-to-end, from concept through deployment and iteration
- Collaborate closely with product, design, and operations to ship high-impact features
- Help define and evolve our overall tech stack and engineering best practices
- Debug issues across the stack and ensure a high-quality user experience
- Contribute to product decisions with a strong user-first mindset
