Homebound is a tech-powered homebuilder founded in 2017, applying software to a sector long dominated by manual processes. The company operates a custom homebuilding platform in which technology powers every stage of the building process, from start to finish, in an experience designed around the customer. Its engineering team ships high-quality production-grade code daily, working on problems spanning construction technology, real estate technology, homebuilding platforms and customer experience technology.
The company's origins lie in disaster recovery. It was founded after the 2017 Northern California wildfires destroyed more than 5,600 buildings, and continues to help families rebuild homes after disasters alongside its core custom homebuilding business. Homebound has active homebuilding operations in four U.S. states: California, Texas, Colorado and Florida.
Homebound's team combines construction and real estate expertise with modern technology, pairing decades of construction experience with software engineering. The engineering organisation is remote-first, with team members working from wherever they do their best work and gathering for regular in-person offsites. The company describes itself as one team executing in service of customers, with people placed at the centre of its mission.
