Hover helps people design, improve, and protect the properties they love. With proprietary AI built on over a decade of real property data, Hover answers age-old questions like “What will it look like?” and “What will it cost?” Homeowners, contractors, and insurance professionals rely on Hover to get fully measured, accurate, and interactive 3D models of any property — all from a smartphone scan in minutes.
At Hover, we’re driven by curiosity, purpose, and a shared commitment to serving our customers, communities, and each other. We believe the best ideas come from diverse perspectives and are proud to cultivate an inclusive, high-performance culture that inspires growth, accountability, and excellence. Backed by leading investors like Google Ventures and Menlo Ventures, and trusted by industry leaders including Travelers, State Farm, and Nationwide — we’re redefining how people understand and interact with their spaces.
As a Security Software Engineer, you will help build and maintain foundational security systems that protect our users and infrastructure. You will bring strong technical fundamentals, product thinking, and a collaborative mindset. You’ll take ownership of scoped features, grow quickly with mentorship, and build strong security and full-stack fundamentals. Working closely with senior engineers, you will collaborate on core functions such as authentication (login, MFA), identity management (SCIM, RBAC), and secret management, learning how to design and implement robust, scalable security solutions into our platform.
The Team:
The Infrastructure and Security team at Hover ensures the scalability, reliability, and security of our platform, empowering engineers to build and deploy applications faster, safer, and with greater stability. This collaborative team is composed of engineers with expertise in cloud infrastructure, security, automation, and CI/CD best practices. We handle everything from Kubernetes environments and cloud architecture to securing user authentication and automating vulnerability detection.
Our mission is to make the best path the easiest path by providing robust automation, consistent patterns, and secure-by-design principles. We partner with engineering teams to tackle challenges like managing rich geospatial and machine learning workloads, hardening cloud infrastructure, and implementing security features across our stack (Ruby, TypeScript, Docker, GCP, Terraform, and more).
Team members are supported with professional growth opportunities, a strong focus on learning, and a culture that values collaboration, innovation, and the continuous improvement of our systems and security posture. Join us to work on cutting-edge challenges that are critical to the foundation of Hover’s success.

At this time, Hover is not considering fully remote roles.
