Intro
Founder Intro
This is not your typical job description. My name is Ari, founder of Extenteam. I got into the short term rental industry by mistake while I was getting my undergraduate degree in Industrial Engineering at USC in California back in 2009.
After running short term rental management companies for over a decade, I started Extenteam - a staffing and proptech company that helps short term rental operators. We grew to a team of 430 people, over 10MM ARR, but we also became complacent in the past years. We became stagnant. We focused on the wrong things, and rather than executing - we focused too much on strategizing.
The people we had on were great people, but the wrong people for the type of company I want Extenteam to be. Everything changed at our South of France offsite in October 2025.
We decided that while our dedicated team member unit (legacy business) is relevant and important in the hospitality and real estate industry, AI and Automations are going to be the future of the short term rental industry.
We are on a mission to help our existing client base of 300+ property management companies to become more efficient and automate their operational processes using our Tailwind Platform.
The leadership team also decided that we want a new team that has an ownership mindset, is more prone to execution and being scrappy and getting s**t done, instead of strategizing.
If you are willing to roll up your sleeves, work with us and pursue excellence - and if you value delivering quality work, with urgency and pride, if you refuse mediocrity - and have an eye for details, and are a data driven person - who can help us double our revenue within 12 months, we want to talk to you.
This role would report to our CRO, who is based in London - but will have direct access to myself ( Founder). We are bringing our next cohort of hires in the office, in Miami - working in person. To ensure we remain relevant and competitive in our fast-paced environment, we prioritize in-person work. This approach fosters better communication and collaboration, leading to faster results.
If you are a doer, rather than a strategist - are willing to hustle side by side with a highly cognitive, fast performing team - please record a short one minute video, and explain why you want to be part of Extenteam.
If you read till here, below are the standard parts of the JD.
