Qualia is a new class of real estate technology that makes buying and selling a home a quick, easy, and understandable process. Over half a million real estate professionals use Qualia to power their real estate closings, and we currently process transactions for millions of consumers every year. Our suite of products brings together homebuyers and sellers, lenders, title and escrow agents, and real estate agents onto a single shared platform, simplifying how homes are bought and sold. We believe real estate is an engine of economic growth in the United States, and that technology is the key to building healthy homeownership. Through our software, we work on improving how real estate is transacted in order to ensure a more understandable, secure, seamless home buying experience for all.
In December of 2020, Qualia acquired Adeptive Software—another well-known real estate technology company—and announced our Series D ($65M) and "unicorn" status.
*ENGINEERING AT QUALIA*
We are hiring entrepreneurial engineers interested in being a part of our scaling engineering team. Our engineers are conscientious hackers who like teamwork but are also comfortable with independent projects. Our engineering team releases new software every week, moves at a fast pace, and works directly with our design and customer-facing teams to imagine and build the new experiences our customers love. Because of that, you’ll get a rewarding variety of projects to work on.
-Our engineering team demonstrates and values technical thought leadership.
-Qualia hosts the official Meteor Developer’s Night in our San Francisco HQ, which is the largest gathering of Meteor developers in the world. The event features talks on Meteor and Javascript development generally, often including talks from Qualia team members.
-Qualia’s Head of Design, Jack Lukic, is the creator of Semantic UI, one of the most popular open-source design frameworks. Qualia engineers learn this framework, and design patterns more generally, directly from the creator of the framework our front end is built on! Very few companies can say that.
-As part of our focus on continual learning and development, a Qualia team member gives an educational talk on something they’re interested in every Thursday to the entire engineering and product team. Topics range from Kolmogorov complexity theory to the definition of art, to models of existential risk.
*WORKING AT QUALIA*
Our team is made up of incredibly bright, mission-driven coworkers who are passionate about using technology to solve real world problems. Qualia employees are highly collaborative and deeply curious, and we’ve cultivated a culture of ownership and autonomy that empowers everyone to make a direct impact from day one.
We strive to provide a benefits package that allows employees to be their best selves, both in and out of the workplace. In addition to comprehensive health plans, a 401k program, and commuter benefits, we prioritize family and personal well-being through professional development, parental leave, and a flexible time off policy. All Qualia employees are currently remote due to the coronavirus pandemic, so we have a robust online onboarding program to train new employees, biweekly all hands meetings, daily meditation sessions, and a variety of internal virtual events and clubs within the Qualia community.
