Sr. Software Engineer

About Kocomo:

Our mission at Kocomo is to make second home ownership easier, more accessible, and more enjoyable - for more people than ever before. We do this through the magic of fractionalization, enabling aspiring second home owners to acquire a share of a vacation home for a fraction of what it would cost to buy the entire property. With intelligent scheduling and end-to-end property management services, Kocomo owners enjoy right-sized ownership of spectacular properties in a completely hassle free way. At Kocomo, we are redefining second home ownership for the modern generation.
Founded by second-time entrepreneurs with $1.5b in exits under their belt, Kocomo is backed by leading venture investors in the US, Europe, and Latin America.
