Senior Ruby & JavaScript Backend Engineer for funded fintech startup
Homebot is an exciting, fast-growing start-up in the FinTech, Bot and AI/Data Science space that is revolutionizing how homeowners build wealth with the single largest asset they’ll ever own -- their home. The US homeownership market is the largest asset class in the world at $23 trillion but is essentially an “unmanaged” asset. Homebot is solving this problem with a solution that combines key value for homeowners, lenders and real estate professionals. Earlier this summer, Homebot was selected into the 500 Startups accelerator in San Francisco and recently won the “Banking Disrupted First Place” award among a dozen of the hottest fintech startups in the country.
