About Opendoor

At Opendoor our mission is to tilt the world in favor of homeowners and those who aim to become one. Homeownership matters. It's how people build wealth, stability, and community.

We’ve built an end-to-end online experience that has already helped thousands of people and we’re just getting started.

The Operations Associate will be a key operator in our Central Operations ecosystem, owning day-to-day execution and continuous improvement across multiple medium-sized initiatives at once.You will learn our tools and workflows quickly, optimize processes and systems at the lowest sustainable cost basis, and ensure work is delivered on time with high accuracy.

• Use tools such as Atlassian (Jira/Confluence), Salesforce, and internal systems to manage work intake, ticket routing, and status updates across teams.
• Apply AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot) to draft SOPs, summarize complex cases, generate analyses, and automate repetitive tasks wherever possible.
• Partner with Accounts Payable and Finance to support invoice processing, reconciliations, spend tracking, and vendor issue resolution; flag anomalies and help drive down cost per transaction.
• Support partnership efforts by helping evaluate and onboard vendors/partners, track performance and SLAs, and coordinate the operational side of new or expanded partnerships.
