Working at
CHAOS

CHAOS builds a Location Intelligence platform that helps rental housing companies, real estate investors, property developers, retailers, urban planners, and public sector clients to make smarter business decisions and stay ahead of the curve using our intelligence engine powered by geospatial data. We're not a big company with a polished onboarding programme and a pool table in the corner. We're a tight-knit group of people who care about the problem we're solving, move fast, and figure things out together. If you're the kind of person who'd rather have real ownership over your work than a fancy job title, you'll fit right in.
