Sr. Product Designer, Mobile Apps

Knock is a technology company on a mission to empower people to move freely. The Knock Home Swap™ makes it easy for consumers to swap their current house for their dream home by buying first and selling later, skipping the hassles of living through repairs and showings, paying only one mortgage at a time, and having home prep covered upfront so their old house sells on the market for the highest possible price. Knock Nest™ allows homeowners to tap into the equity in their homes to meet their financial obligations without having to move. They are able to remain in their home on their terms, choosing to lease long-term until they are ready to move or buy back the home at a future date.Launched in 2015 by founding team members of Trulia.com, Knock has raised more than $600 million in debt and equity from top tier investors, including RRE Ventures, Foundry Group, Redpoint, Greycroft, Corazon Capital, Correlation Ventures, Great Oaks Venture Capital, and FJ Labs.
