About Tandem

The way office space works and the industry behind it is getting completely flipped on its head right now. We are in the middle of a MAJOR disruption driven by two things:

1. Over 50% of office space is currently sitting empty in US cities.
2. Hybrid and remote work are here to stay. The five-days-in-the-office workweek is going away forever for many, many, many jobs.

Tandem is a marketplace tech company solving these problems by enabling the next generation of office space. Check us at out Tandem.space - you’ll see hundreds of spaces on our marketplace. We match, service and enable companies every day to find their perfect office space, and we’re just getting started.

We’re a small, experienced team - currently we have 13 full time employees. Expect a fast-paced environment where you’ll learn a TON and have significant ownership beyond engineering - you’ll constantly be in discussions about things like product, design, strategy, etc. You will report directly to the CTO, who is highly technical (ex-Google, 3x CTO) and led two previous YC companies before Tandem.
