A Little Bit About Us

We’re looking for talented collaborators to join our team. If you (or someone you know) is a hard worker, a team player, a good listener, a nice person and all of the good stuff, we want to know!

We welcome and encourage all candidates to apply! We appreciate all the time, effort and vulnerability this takes. While we review all of our applicants’ resumes, we will only reach out if there are any next steps or to set up an interview to get to know you better. If this job isn’t the right fit, you might be a great addition to our UpHouse network of talented contractors, project specialists and support staff.

As a B Corp, we’re part of a movement to normalize pay transparency. When we reach out to schedule an interview, we’ll also send an employee pay scale and compensation package so that you can review this information before even meeting with our team.

To ensure we process all applications efficiently, please submit your resume by emailing apply@uphouseinc.com only. We kindly ask that you refrain from dropping off resumes in person at our office. Thank you!
