Operations Specialist

About the role:

What you’ll do:

• Own end-to-end execution across operational workflows; handle exceptions, escalations, and anything that falls outside automated processes
• Work directly with third-party providers, vendors, and community or regulatory bodies to resolve issues and move cases to resolution
• Validate AI-generated outputs; take ownership of quality, accuracy, and effectiveness before downstream impact
• Manage a high volume of open cases simultaneously against hard deadlines
• Cross-train across workflows to cover volume variability
• Identify process gaps and give feedback on where tools or workflows need to improve

What you’ll bring:

• Comfort working with AI tools and a genuine interest in using technology to work faster and smarter; you don't wait for systems to do your job, you figure out how to make them work for you
• Strong project management instincts with the ability to drive multiple workstreams to hard deadlines
• Persistence and follow-through when working with unresponsive third parties
• High accountability and urgency around deadlines with direct customer impact
• Strong communication skills: you'll manage external relationships, negotiate, escalate issues, and resolve disputes by phone and in writing
• Attention to detail and strong documentation habits across a large portfolio
• Comfortable working in a high-ambiguity environment where you're helping build the playbook
• Background in operations, case management, project coordination, property management, real estate, insurance, mortgage/escrow, or similar is a plus
• Opendoor is actively consolidating its internal tooling stack; comfort with new systems and change is essential
