    Mission

    Our mission at Proportunity is to unlock the empowering value of home ownership for everyone.

    Who we're looking for

    If you’re focused, data driven, ambitious, have a pragmatic mindset and are looking for a challenge to your skills, come join us! We're looking for brilliant teammates who can help us build state-of-the-art predictive models and develop end-to-end products that help first time buyers own their dream home.

    Our core technology turns data into quantifiable insights that help real estate investors make safer, more informed decisions. We analyse large amounts of data from various sources in multiple formats to understand how the real estate market evolves over time, and take a peek into future growth. We use these insights to drive our decision-making when lending to first time buyers.

    Values

    The mindset we share at Proportunity is that we don’t expect anyone to know all the answers, but we should have a plan how to get closer to them. We like to learn, adapt and share knowledge with the team.

    Interviewing process

    We hate long interviewing processes just as much as you do, so we try to keep it straightforward! You'll get the chance to show us what you've got, but also give us a taste of our own medicine. We're expecting candidates to be inquisitive and show passion for our work and the problems we're solving. Here's a quick overview of what you'll go through:

    1) Phone interview - we'd like to get to know you and understand why you're looking to work alongside our awesome team!

    2) Technical interview - ...well, two or three interviews :D. Here you get to meet some of our team members and go through some technical problems that are very similar to the ones you'd have to work on on a regular day at Proportunity. Here you'll get to show us your excellent skills and how you tackle a real-world problem.

    3) Working alongside the team - we want everyone we hire to get a good feel of what working with us would be like. If you got this far, you're already a talented professional and we're pretty sure we want to work with you. This stage gives you time to work on an actual problem, with actual data and with the actual Proportunity team.
