About DashQ

At DashQ, we're pioneering a transformative approach to the way people find, secure and connect with rental housing. By leveraging cutting-edge technologies we are helping evolve housing from a mere commodity to a deeply connected community. In an environment where housing supply is limited, it has never been more critical to fix the inefficient systems that act as hurdles to accessing the limited supply we do have.

Solving critical problems requires a strong team with an aligned set of values - candid communication, curiosity, and an unyielding character are more than values at DashQ—they're our foundation for creating meaningful impact, both for our community and self-growth.

If the thought of passionately diving into these challenges excites you, then DashQ is exactly where you belong.
