Hover helps people design, improve, and protect the properties they love. With proprietary AI built on over a decade of real property data, Hover answers age-old questions like “What will it look like?” and “What will it cost?” Homeowners, contractors, and insurance professionals rely on Hover to get fully measured, accurate, and interactive 3D models of any property — all from a smartphone scan in minutes.

At Hover, we’re driven by curiosity, purpose, and a shared commitment to serving our customers, communities, and each other. We believe the best ideas come from diverse perspectives and are proud to cultivate an inclusive, high-performance culture that inspires growth, accountability, and excellence. Backed by leading investors like Google Ventures and Menlo Ventures, and trusted by industry leaders including Travelers, State Farm, and Nationwide — we’re redefining how people understand and interact with their spaces.

Why Hover wants you

Today, contractors juggle a stack of disconnected tools to run their business: a CRM, a measurement app, an estimating tool, a photo app. Hover already owns the measurement. Now we're building the estimate, the step that turns a completed scope into a signed deal.

We just launched a major update to our estimation product, and it's showing early signs of success with enterprise customers testing it in the real world. You'll lead the team that takes it further, building an estimating product that stands on its own, tightly integrated with Hover's measurements and our 3D generative AI interaction product. It sits on top of Hover's property data, where we're giving contractors and adjusters new ways to see a property and derive the work to be done from it.

You will contribute by

You'll own the roadmap for Hover's estimating product line end to end, making the case for what wins with enterprise customers rather than shipping a feature list. That means defining and moving two connected but distinct use cases, retail and restoration/insurance claims, without forking the product, the roadmap, or the team. You'll manage the Estimates team directly (six engineers today) and partner weekly with a standing product, design, and data group to keep everyone shipping toward one agreed direction.

On the technical side, you'll lead the move to a more flexible estimating engine, one that can take in more kinds of inputs, including what comes out of an inspection or assessment, without forking logic per use case. You'll also reduce the cost of maintaining the estimates system we already have, including an in-flight consolidation into the main application, favoring removal of legacy functionality over building around it, and partner with the catalog team to build a standalone pricing function so a Hover estimate can carry its own pricing. Along the way, you'll sit directly in front of the enterprise customers whose workflows are shaping this roadmap, and hire and grow the team as scope expands.

Your background includes

10+ years in software engineering, including 4+ managing engineering teams, with real ownership over a product line's roadmap rather than execution against someone else's plan.
A full cycle of people management behind you: hiring and leveling, coaching senior engineers, running performance conversations, and promoting people into bigger scope.
Experience managing more than one team or focus area at once.
Experience managing engineers who've built systems with real pricing, configuration, or rules logic.
Technical depth strong enough to make architecture calls and defend them. Familiarity with Ruby on Rails, React, TypeScript, GraphQL federation, or Postgres is a plus, not a requirement.
AI fluency in how a team builds: a point of view on where generative tooling belongs in the workflow, how to roll it out, and how to tell whether it's actually working.
