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.
As our Senior Software Engineer, you will design and implement security solutions for both enterprise and consumer-facing systems. You will be the go-to person for security decisions—taking ownership of core functions such as authentication (login, OAuth), identity management (SCIM, RBAC), network/firewall hardening, and more. You’ll collaborate closely with engineering teams to advise on best practices, integrate security automations, and ensure the overall robustness of our infrastructure. Your work will be crucial in maintaining and hardening compliance (e.g., SOC 2) and protecting sensitive data across our organization.
The Infrastructure and Security team at Hover ensures the scalability, reliability, and security of our platform, empowering engineers to build and deploy applications faster, safer, and with greater stability. This collaborative team is composed of engineers with expertise in cloud infrastructure, security, automation, and CI/CD best practices. We handle everything from Kubernetes environments and cloud architecture to securing user authentication and automating vulnerability detection.
Our mission is to make the best path the easiest path by providing robust automation, consistent patterns, and secure-by-design principles. We partner with engineering teams to tackle challenges like managing rich geospatial and machine learning workloads, hardening cloud infrastructure, and implementing security features across our stack (Ruby, TypeScript, Docker, GCP, Terraform, and more).
Team members are supported with professional growth opportunities, a strong focus on learning, and a culture that values collaboration, innovation, and the continuous improvement of our systems and security posture. Join us to work on cutting-edge challenges that are critical to the foundation of Hover’s success.
