RealScout - Rails Engineers/Javascript Engineers/Data Engineers/Data Scientists - Mountain View, CA and Philadelphia, PA - Full-time - Onsite

RealScout helps real estate agents sell more homes. Our aim is to provide better transparency between home sellers and buyers to create a more efficient marketplace.

We pair program [1], hold hack days every other Friday [2], and have recently improved test coverage from 45% to 85%. The focus seems to be paying off: The number of home purchases powered by RealScout tripled in 2015 and our user base has grown 400% since July.

We're on the way to Series B being previously backed by Joe Lonsdale (Palantir founder), Ken DeLeon (2012's #1 Realtor) and several others ($7m to date).

If you're interested in helping shape and mold engineering culture and technology [3] in a small and growing team, feel free to reach me at chris (at) realscout.com!

Thanks for verifying, it wasn't working for us a couple weeks ago but haven't check since then.

I'll give 3.5 a go in the next couple days and update the guide as necessary. Thanks!


This is great!

If anyone's interested, yesterday we put up a fairly detailed guide to installing TensorFlow on EC2 GPU instances with Python 3.4.

Congrats! Lever is a joy and probably my favorite hiring tool I use at RealScout. Can't wait to see what is to come in the next few years.

(HackerRank integration would be awesome!)


Thanks so much! In fact, statements like this from our customers were our very best asset in fundraising. We literally would not have been successful without you.

The partners at Scale told us this was one of the most important factors in their decision; they told us they almost never see the same kind of customer passion from other Enterprise SaaS products.

100% hear you on HackerRank integration. We've rolled out a number of integrations on the sourcing side of things the past few months, and we are so excited to grow our coverage to every single tool that our customers use alongside Lever. We have a great relationship with the team at HackerRank, so I am looking forward to it as well. :-)

While we're not using Redux in production yet, it's been an amazing library to work with so far.
