Camino is a mission-driven company lowering the barriers of government regulations. We offer a suite of products that enable the government to be more accessible, easier to integrate with, and ultimately simpler to navigate. Whether you're trying to start a new business, build a new home, or park your car on the street, Camino builds tools to simplify traditionally complex-to-navigate policies. Our products include virtual/remote live-streaming video inspections, auto-generated guides for projects like home remodels, payments, document management, and more. When combined, we offer some of the most advanced solutions in our market that are already deployed to millions of citizens throughout the United States. It's an excellent time to join us and help us build the modern software stack for the government and, in turn, see your efforts used by tens of millions of Americans on a daily basis.
We are 100% distributed and have been for years. We love working where we wish and having the flexibility to work with the best people no matter where they live. We offer competitive salaries, meaningful equity and stellar health, dental and vision benefits.
