Our Values

As sprawl became commonplace in our cities, we grew less connected to each other. We normalized hour-long commutes, even as private vehicle ownership became the largest source of carbon pollution. Cars and roads began to dictate development decisions and shape urban life. At Culdesac, we blend technology, real estate, and culture to reimagine daily living. Come help us make our residents happier, healthier, and more productive — both in the years they spend with us and in the moments they share together.

At Culdesac, we:

Work as a team

Be inclusive, drawing on the strengths of people who bring a different perspective.

Find ways to work together that overcome disciplinary and geographic separations.

Act from ownership

Be output oriented. When we see a problem, we roll up our sleeves and fix it.

Don’t let blockers stop you from seeing your work through to the end.

Rule 0, then iterate

Don’t start from scratch: learn from our own and others’ previous attempts.

Before mass private car ownership, all cities were models of walkability. We learn from the designs of the past and make them beautiful and relevant to today.

Then, we learn from our own designs to continually improve.

Design for humans

Ask people for feedback and observe behavior. Only users know if we’re creating value for them.

Human paradoxes and contradictions are our opportunity to create joy.

Respect the limits of what we can know and plan. In the complex organism of a city, emergent behavior rules.

Create and capture value

Focus on what our residents value: profitability is essential for sustainability and allows us to scale.

Great places create positive externalities for ourselves and our neighbors, unlike the negative externalities of cars.

We build value by executing on the fundamentals and excelling at mobility, community, and open space.

Next Steps

If you think Culdesac might be a good fit, we encourage you to apply! If we move forward, here's our typical process:

1. A 15-minute call with our recruiter to understand your background and cover logistics and expectations.

2. A 30-minute onsite interview with our Community Manager to discuss your leasing, sales, and customer service experience.

3. A 30-minute onsite interview with our Assistant Community Manager to walk through company scenarios and share upcoming project needs.

4. A 30-minute video call with our People Team to explore how you align with Culdesac’s mission, vision, and culture.

At each step, we leave time for you to ask us questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
