Overview

Handoff is the AI agent that runs a construction company.

We help remodelers automate estimating, streamline operations, and win more work - backed by real-time cost data, intuitive design, and workflows that “speak contractor.” With over 10,000 monthly active users and $6B in annualized project volume already flowing through our platform, we’re becoming the trusted partner for the people who build our homes. We are backed by $25M+ raised from Y Combinator, Sequoia, Initialized, and Greycroft. Our team is distributed across hubs in Austin, São Paulo, and Buenos Aires, and we are deeply focused on building intuitive, high-impact solutions that make a real difference for our users. Position

Head of Engineering at Handoff The remodeling and construction industry is one of the last frontiers for digital transformation. Despite its $500B+ size, it’s still run with spreadsheets, phone calls, and outdated software. Handoff is changing that - turning hours of manual estimating and admin into seconds of automation. As

Head of Engineering , you’ll lead a global team of engineers and help shape the AI-driven platform that runs an entire construction business.
