Application Development Manager
The Application Development Manager will lead the design, delivery, and quality of our custom software applications. This role owns the application development lifecycle, engineering standards, and cross-functional delivery across product and business teams.

The base salary range for this role is $120,000– $160,000 salary. This position is eligible for a discretionary performance-based bonus. The exact bonus is not guaranteed and will vary based on individual performance, team results, and company performance. Actual pay will be determined by factors such as education, experience, and job-related skills relevant to the role. Marcus & Millichap is a multi-state employer and posted salary ranges are provided in good faith for compliance with all relevant pay-transparency regulations. These ranges may not reflect potential compensation for positions based in other states or regions.
This position is fully remote.
