Aspire Fine Homes is a luxury residential builder committed to crafting exceptional homes in the most sought-after communities. We don't just build homes — we build experiences, neighborhoods, and lasting value. As we grow, we're investing in the tools, systems, and intelligence that will define how we operate for the next decade.

This is a high-impact, project-driven role at the intersection of artificial intelligence, real estate strategy, and business operations. You'll work directly with leadership to design and deploy AI-powered tools, surface market intelligence, and streamline how we build, sell, and communicate — with real deliverables that ship.

If you're energized by combining cutting-edge AI tools with real business problems in the luxury real estate space, this is your summer.

• Custom AI Application — Design and prototype a proprietary AI tool tailored to Aspire's unique workflows — from client intake to project delivery — built around how we actually operate.
• Process Automation & Scale — Map our current operations, identify bottlenecks, and implement AI-assisted automations that allow our team to do more with less friction and greater consistency.
• Sales & Customer Communication — Develop a streamlined, AI-enhanced sales pipeline and communication system — from first inquiry through closing and beyond — that elevates the client experience at every touchpoint.
• Market Research & Competitive Analysis — Build repeatable research frameworks using AI tools to track competitors, buyer trends, and market positioning in real time. Deliver insights leadership can act on.
• MLS Data Intelligence — Access and analyze local Multiple Listing Service (MLS) data to identify high-opportunity build locations, emerging submarkets, and shifts in buyer demand.
• Product & Pricing Strategy — Synthesize land availability, buyer demand, and comparable sales data into actionable recommendations on what to build, where to build it, and how to price it competitively.

• AI fluency — comfortable with tools like Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, or similar, and excited to push them further than most people do
• Real estate curiosity — interest or coursework in real estate, urban planning, economics, business, or data analytics
• Clear communication — able to translate complex AI outputs into plain-language recommendations for a non-technical audience
• Self-direction — can own a project from brief to delivery with minimal hand-holding
• Strong writing — can explain ideas clearly in a slide, a document, or a one-pager
• Familiarity with MLS platforms or real estate market fundamentals is a plus, not a requirement
• No-code or low-code experience is a plus (Zapier, Make, Notion AI, Airtable, etc.)

• Direct mentorship from company leadership — your work will be presented, reviewed, and taken seriously
• A portfolio of real AI tools and strategies deployed at a live luxury real estate company
• Deep exposure to residential development, land acquisition, and luxury home sales cycles
• Hands‑on experience building repeatable systems using frontier AI tools
• Flexible schedule and remote‑friendly structure — we care about output, not clock-watching
• Potential for continued engagement or a full‑time opportunity based on performance
• Academic credit arrangements available if required by your institution
