  • Experience working in a fast-paced software team. (Agile development environment).

  • Familiarity with tools for managing tests and bugs (we use software called Qase for managing test cases and Linear for bug reporting).

View company profile

At Higharc, our core mission is to empower homebuilders to create superior homes and communities with greater affordability. We recognized that homebuilding practices hadn't fundamentally changed in a century, and we set out to change that by automating architecture, sales, and construction processes through a web-based platform. This vision was born from our CEO Marc Minor's personal frustrations with the home building process in early 2018. Drawing from his experiences at the forefront of software and generative design at companies like Carbon3D and Desktop Metal, Marc envisioned a way to apply these transformative technologies to an industry still reliant on traditional methods. He believed in using technology to make communities more personal and embarked on this journey, leaving the 3D printing world behind.

Our values are the bedrock of our company, guiding every decision, hire, and tool we utilize. Kindness is paramount; we foster a culture of support, encouragement, and respect. We believe focused work yields the best results, and we structure our environment to prioritize deep concentration, which in turn allows for greater flexibility in other aspects of life. Community is another cornerstone – we are an eclectic group from diverse backgrounds, and we celebrate this variety, knowing that different perspectives lead to stronger outcomes. We are committed to delivering the 'best to market,' constantly testing, iterating, and refining our solutions with meticulous attention to detail and a strong sense of pride in our craft. Finally, we embrace 'critiques are critical'; open and honest feedback is vital for rapid progress and achieving the best solutions, so we continuously scrutinize our work and hold ourselves accountable to our goals. This dedication to innovation and a supportive, driven culture allows us to help builders navigate changes, increase margins, and reduce cycle times, ultimately transforming the way homes are built.
