About Townhouse Partners
Townhouse Partners is a leading commercial real estate due diligence and advisory firm trusted by lenders, investors, and owners nationwide. Founded in 2009, we built our reputation by delivering clear, rigorous analysis and by showing up as true partners on complex, high-stakes transactions. Today, we work across all major asset types throughout the U.S. and operate on both the debt and equity sides of the market.
We provide due diligence, advisory, and research services to investors who need clarity, speed, and an edge in decision-making. Our work is grounded in proprietary financial modeling, experienced project management, and best-in-practice underwriting standards. Townhouse Partners has successfully advised on billions of dollars in property value and loan underwriting across the real estate landscape. In 2025, we have analyzed more than half of all annual CMBS issuances and, across all execution types, have supported over $90 billion in transactional volume.
Our edge is simple: smart people, high standards, and a culture that values accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement. We are client-centric, results-driven, and forward-thinking, and we take pride in work that directly influences major investment decisions. If you are looking to do meaningful work in a firm where judgment, integrity, and impact matter, Townhouse Partners is a place to build and grow.
This role sits at the center of how the firm operates and grows. You will own the technology vision end to end, shaping the systems that power critical business decisions while staying close to the work through hands-on development. We are looking for a builder and a leader who can turn strategy into execution and make results happen.
We are seeking an exceptional technology leader who combines strategic vision with hands-on technical expertise. This role requires someone who can architect solutions, lead teams, and roll up their sleeves to write code. The ideal candidate brings both leadership experience and a passion for building great software to address complex business challenges.
