The Company Youll Join

At Extracker we make the construction industry more efficient by using technology to better communicate project costs between companies.

Every day thousands of pounds of paper and hundreds of personnel hours are consumed to record and communicate extra work completed on construction job sites around the world.

These pieces of paper can take days or weeks to reach the office and from there need to be scanned, manually transcribed, and tediously recorded into spreadsheets, that is, if they arent lost or damaged first.

In an industry with constant change and thin margins, this results in a massive loss of valuable time and money for hard working contractors.

Extracker creates tools to help contractors dramatically increase the organization and efficiency of this system, called change order communication, by intelligently digitizing this age-old paper process. This leads to an increase in profits, more successful contractor to customer relationships, more transparency into a projects true cost, and less wasted paper!

Our offices are currently located in the Lafayette, CA with team members working in San Francisco, Truckee, and San Ramon, California and we are also open to remote candidates.

The Opportunity

Just as TurboTax did for tax documents and Expensify did for receipts and expense reports, Extracker is doing for change order communication and log management by building first-of-its-kind, category defining software that is revolutionizing the commercial construction industry.
