Background

estie is a real estate tech company that develops products in the commercial real estate domain with a focus on offices.

We have developed a SaaS called “estie Market Survey”, an office data analysis platform for real estate operators, and since our Series A funding of 1 billion yen in January 2022, we have been pursuing a “multi-product strategy” to tackle various issues in the office domain.

In order to develop multiple products following the “estie Market Survey” in the future, it is essential to have design engineers who can unravel complex operations and materialize the ideal experience envisioned.
The activities of estie's design engineers vary widely from person to person. Because we launch new products one after another, we are able to assign design engineers according to their career aspirations. Some members are responsible for everything from user research to implementation, while others are engaged in product development using front-end technology.

We invite you to join us in developing the true value of office real estate, a huge industry that represents Japan, through the power of design and engineering, and creating products that will impress users.
