Key skills for this role
The Application Engineer administers and extends the platforms Customer Operations uses to serve customers: the CRM, the contact center, and the AI agents that support them. This position exists so that Customer Operations can configure, connect, and automate its own systems directly, rather than submitting a request and waiting on the product roadmap for routine changes.
The role sits between operations and technology. It does not build or own production software. It administers the platforms our team already runs, connects them using available APIs and integration tooling, and applies practical AI automation to reduce repetitive manual work across the team.

We are a mission-driven company: we love what we do and the impact we are making.
Impact. Everything you do here will matter. Your opinion and contributions will make a big difference to the future of this company and our mission of making home performance matter .
Flexibility. We are 100% remote - work where you feel comfortable.
Environment. We value candor, excellence, and collaboration while fostering creativity and camaraderie. We are supportive and genuinely enjoy celebrating each others’ wins!
Ownership. You will hold broad responsibilities with high autonomy in a fast-paced, evolving startup world.
Equality between people. We support diversity, championing our differences, and most importantly, learn from one another. Pearl is an equal opportunity employer, and candidates from all backgrounds and life experiences are encouraged to apply.
Founded in 2013, Pearl is a ratings and standards company building the national standard for home performance. Pearl SCORE™ rates every single-family home in the U.S. across five key pillars — Safety, Comfort, Operations, Resilience, and Energy — so homebuyers, homeowners, and real estate professionals can understand how a home performs in daily life.
Today, the value of a home is judged by its location, size, and aesthetics— but these factors overlook the home’s most important function: safeguarding the comfort, well-being, and finances of the people inside. Most American homes underperform in these regards because home performance is simply not on our radar. We can’t see it, quantify it, or put a value on it. Pearl aims to change that by making home performance a central part of how we view and value our homes.
We are not a home inspector, a contractor, a real estate platform, or a green-certification program — we rate homes against a transparent, evidence-based standard so that home performance becomes visible, measurable, and valuable in the real estate market.
As a Certified B Corporation, we're accountable not only to our shareholders, but also to the homeowners and communities we serve. For more information, visit pearlscore.com .
