About the role
👋 Why we're doing this…
We’ll make this brief. 1.5B humans don't have adequate housing and Jupe is working towards a long-term vision to shelter as many of them as possible. The problem is compounded by the fact that rents keep going up and more and more folks are affected by climate and political disasters every year. If we’re going to overtake the problem, we need to build a magical user experience. We’re starting with a magical digital experience to match our go-to-market Jupe nature hospitality experience, but your design will scale literally across the planet and eventually to the cosmos. That’s what you’ll be doing. You’ll be working with a world-class digital and art product team from places like Apple, Airbnb, and Tesla to create a transcendent experience beyond atoms and physical matter.
