For guests, Ohana provides the freedom to transition to the place you want to live with the people you want to be around. For hosts, Ohana provides the freedom to pursue your dream with peace of mind that your rent is covered by a trusted sub-tenant.
As people started telling their friends about Ohana, we could hardly keep up with our growth so knew it was time to raise funds and build our team. In early May, closed our $4.2M seed round from the people who built Airbnb and Zillow:

• Spencer Rascoff - Co-founder & CEO, Zillow
• Sara Adler - Head of Corporate Development, Airbnb
• Ali Partovi - CEO, Neo
• Surabhi Gupta - Director of Engineering, Airbnb and Robinhood
• Lex Bayer - Head of Payments, Airbnb

Join our content team as a Videographer, filming street interviews and social content about rent, housing, and life in San Francisco. Your videos will be seen by millions of people across our Instagram and TikTok portfolio, including Girls Who Sublet San Francisco.
We're looking for someone with experience filming and editing short-form social content. You should be comfortable shooting on either a newer iPhone or professional camera and have access to high-quality microphones/audio equipment.
This is a creative, hands‑on role for someone who understands what makes content perform on TikTok and Instagram. You should have a strong eye for framing, lighting, audio, pacing, and editing, and genuinely enjoy creating content designed to go viral.
You will primarily be behind the camera. You'll work with an interviewer who approaches people and conducts the interviews, while you focus on capturing high-quality footage and turning it into engaging short‑form videos.
