You are an ideal fit if you

Have direct experience working within the property tax ecosystem—through your own practice, at an established firm, or within a government agency. Are deeply familiar with county-specific procedures, deadlines, and rules, especially for the largest counties in Washington. Possess an innovative mindset and are willing to find creative solutions while adhering to all local guidelines. Are available to consult on an as-needed, hourly basis via phone or Zoom. Why This Role Matters We are on a mission to make homeownership more affordable. Your expertise will play a pivotal role in helping us expand into new states smoothly and responsibly—ensuring we build on a strong, compliant foundation. This is a flexible, high-impact consulting opportunity to contribute your expertise without requiring a full-time commitment. Our Core Values The biggest thing we pride ourselves on is autonomy. You can't move fast through committee decision-making, so we hire people who want to own workstreams outright.

Take ownership. This is yours. We build everything through single-threaded autonomy. One person owns the outcome, makes the calls, and sees it through. We believe in "asking for forgiveness, not permission" so you can make unencumbered decisions.

Move fast. Decide. Ship. Learn. Repeat. Speed is our edge. Perfection is the enemy of momentum. We will forever move faster than our competition.

Be resourceful. Find ways to do more with less. Constraints don't slow us down. They make us inventive. There's always a way through, and the people who own their work find it. "That's not my job" isn't a sentence anyone here finishes.

Think big and challenge convention. Dare to do things differently. You don't change the world with incrementally better solutions. The systems we're fixing are broken because everyone accepted them. We question the default, build the better answer, and refuse to blend in.

Measure everything. Data is the tiebreaker. We turn instincts into evidence, hunches into experiments, and opinions into numbers. If we can measure it, we can beat it. Interested in advising us? We’d love to connect!
