In less than a decade, WeWork has become the world’s largest operator of co-working space. It has transformed real estate around the world by building out shared offices and renting them out to both single-person startups and major companies like Facebook and Bank of America. THAT is what WeWork is best known for but WeWork doesn’t just run coworking spaces with ping-pong tables and beer on tap these days. It also operates shared living apartment buildings, gyms, and even a school.

And now, WeWork is turning office space into a service.

Earlier this year, WeWork acquired analytics company Teem, which aims to help companies plan and use their offices effectively with a host of data-based technologies - and allows WeWork to provide office management services to enterprises directly, in a new initiative called Powered by We.  

What is the Teem platform?

Teem is a software that enables office managers to manage desk and meeting room reservations and analyze how that space is being used. And, it enables companies’ growing desire to use office space as efficiently as possible.  The technology, which is already integrated into popular office tools like Slack, Office 365, and Google, is used by high-profile companies such as Airbnb, Dropbox, and GE. By understanding how employees utilize the different areas of an office, companies can save money by taking advantage of every room that’s gathering dust.

 What is the role?

The role of Platform Engineer will play a key role in our continually growing Sales Organization. You will play a critical part in onboarding our new clients (friends) to the Teem platform.

 You will be working with C-level executives, IT leaders, real estate groups, facility management teams and more, to demonstrate how Teem’s capabilities will assist them in solving their complex office space problems.
