This is YOUR CHANCE to shape the backbone of a company that's scaling rapidly and innovating boldly. As our Visual Designer, you'll partner with the Visual Design Team Lead, founders, and executives to bring brands, products, campaigns, and marketing initiatives to life through high-quality visual design across the PLACE ecosystem.

Why PLACE: We believe people do their best work when they're trusted, supported, and surrounded by others who are equally driven. Our competitive benefits include PTO as needed, comprehensive insurance coverage, a 401(k) match, stock option grants, and a stock purchase plan. Every team member is an owner, building the "PLACE" they are proud to call "my company." ## About PLACE Corporate Careers ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: PLACE is an end-to-end real estate technology and business services platform that powers top-producing real estate teams across North America. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series A) - **Headquarters**: Bellingham, Washington, United States - **Founded**: 2020 - **Founders**: Ben Kinney and Chris Suarez ## Core Business - Primary industry: Real Estate Technology (PropTech) - Target customers: Top-tier real estate agents and teams (B2B), and consumers buying, selling, and maintaining homes (B2C) - Mission statement: "Delivering the dream of homeownership everywhere" by putting the most informed, most empowered real estate professional at the center of the experience. ## Products & Services - **PLACE Platform (Agent-Facing)**: A proprietary technology and business services suite that offloads up to 75% of agents' operational tasks (accounting, HR, legal, marketing, talent acquisition, coaching). It is brokerage-agnostic, meaning it works with any brokerage. - **Consumer Services Suite**: A one-stop shop for consumers that streamlines buying, selling, maintaining, and investing in properties. Includes in-house mortgage brokers, title and escrow services, an insurance portal, and a home improvement network referral system. - **Brivity**: A CRM and marketing automation platform acquired by PLACE to support agent workflows. - **Remine**: A real estate data and analytics platform acquired by PLACE in April 2025. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed - **Annual Revenue**: USD $85,000,000 (latest available) - **Total Funding**: USD $100,000,000 (Series A, led by Goldman Sachs Asset Management, November 2021) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Goldman Sachs Asset Management (lead investor) - **Growth Signals**: - Employee headcount of approximately 350 people (+24% year-over-year) - Presence in 100+ locations across the United States and Canada - Acquisitions of Livian (Sept 2024) and Remine (April 2025) for $1.5M - Expanding into mortgage, title, insurance, and home improvement services ## Competitive Advantages - **Brokerage Agnostic**: Unlike many PropTech companies that tie agents to a single brokerage, PLACE works with leading teams regardless of their brokerage affiliation, solving a major pain point for top talent. - **Operational Offloading**: The platform handles back-office tasks (HR, accounting, legal, marketing) that are notoriously difficult for independent agents, allowing them to focus on client relationships. - **All-in-One Ecosystem**: PLACE is building a vertically integrated consumer experience (mortgage, title, insurance, home improvement) that creates a "one-stop shop" and deepens the agent-to-consumer relationship. - **Founder Expertise**: Founders Ben Kinney and Chris Suarez have built some of the most successful real estate organizations in the industry, giving the company deep domain credibility. ## Strategic Focus - **Vertical Integration**: Expanding the consumer services model to include mortgage, title, escrow, insurance, and home improvement referral networks to capture more of the real estate transaction lifecycle. - **Platform Expansion**: Deepening integrations across all stakeholders (agents, loan officers, title partners, inspectors, service providers) to create a unified homeownership experience. - **Data & AI**: Recent hiring for a Senior Product Manager, AI & Data, and the acquisition of Remine (data analytics) signals a push toward data-driven tools for agents and consumers. - **Talent Acquisition**: Active recruiting for both corporate HQ roles and on behalf of partner teams across the US. ## Why Work Here - **Culture & Values**: PLACE emphasizes a "Win Make Give" philosophy, a strong focus on teamwork, and a mission-driven approach to changing the real estate industry. The company has a high employer rating of 4.8/5.0 on LinkedIn (100 reviews), with particularly strong scores for Culture (4.9) and Work-Life Balance (4.8). - **Benefits & Perks**: - Flexible paid time off and 9 paid holidays - Company-subsidized health, dental, vision, and long-term disability insurance - 401(k) program - Wealth-building and goal-setting curriculum - Real estate license sponsorship (opens doors to investing, savings, and referral income) - Partnership with 60+ nonprofits and a company 501(c)(3), "A Giving PLACE" - **Work Policy**: The company is headquartered in Bellingham, WA, but has roles across the US and Canada. Specific roles may be remote, hybrid, or in-office; job postings should be checked for details. - **Engineering/Product Culture**: The company is actively hiring for product management (AI & Data, Point of Sale), technical delivery, and engineering roles, suggesting a growing tech team working on modernizing real estate infrastructure. ## Sources 1.
