This will be hard
Working at Opendoor isn’t for everyone. And that’s okay. This is a place for people who want to be the best at what they do and who want to dedicate their career to our mission of tilting the world in favor of people who want to sell, buy, or own a home.
Opendoor is a mission driven company
Ownership matters
Home ownership isn’t just about a house. It’s about families and communities. Home ownership is about putting down roots. And these roots tie us together and make our world better.
The modern world has been built on the idea that ordinary people can stake a claim in their society, put down roots, and build a future. Renters move. Owners stay. That matters.
And because it matters, we ship every single week to tilt the world in favor of owners.
Our principles are the foundation of everything we build
Start and End with the Customer
We invent, build, and execute to improve the lives of our customers. We put in the hard work when no one is looking to delight customers.
Act from Ownership
When we see a problem, we roll up our sleeves and fix it. We hold ourselves accountable because it’s our home and it’s our responsibility to take care of it.
Results Matter
We focus on outputs and outcomes and hold ourselves accountable to hitting ambitious goals. We have a high quality bar and pay attention to the pixels, words, and results.
Our goal is not to create consensus. We all work extremely hard because our mission matters.
Be Mission Driven
To succeed at Opendoor, you need to care deeply about our mission and appreciate that we are focused only on this and nothing else.
Seek Truth
At Opendoor, we value truth over feelings. We’re collegial yet candid—we say the thing. We assume good intent and are open minded.
Ship Fast
We believe that in software the only acceptable speed is faster. We do not slow down to seek consensus. If we are wrong, we reverse course.
