About the Role

As a founding commercial hire at a housing marketplace, you will build the multifamily supply category and establish its partnership go-to-market strategy. You will work closely with the founding team to shape pricing, positioning, and expansion.

What You'll Do

  • Build and execute a partnership-led strategy for acquiring multifamily supply.
  • Identify and prioritize landlord and operator partners through industry relationships, outreach, networking, and market research.
  • Manage the full partner sales cycle, from pitching and negotiation through closing and onboarding buildings.
  • Explain the marketplace's value to partners, including faster leasing, revenue opportunities, automated screening, and financial transparency.
  • Develop partner relationships after launch and use renewal cycles and performance data to expand unit counts.
  • Work with the founding team on pricing, partner feedback, the business model, and product priorities.
  • Track pipeline health, partner performance, and growth measures such as live units, occupancy, and revenue per unit.

What We're Looking for

  • Five to ten years of experience in proptech, multifamily real estate, or residential leasing, including hands-on supply-side sales or partnerships.
  • Experience pitching, negotiating with, and closing landlords or operators onto a platform.
  • Active relationships with multifamily landlords, owners, or operators in a major U.S. market.
  • Strong relationship-building skills and experience navigating negotiations involving multiple stakeholders.
  • Analytical ability to interpret business metrics and inform strategic decisions.
  • Familiarity with multifamily operations or property management is valuable.
  • Comfort working in an intense startup environment with ambiguity and varied responsibilities.
