Job Description: Why Onni Capital Most property tax professionals spend a career inside a billable hours model where the incentive is to do the work again rather than to build something that does it once. Valorem is the opposite bet. You will have engineers. Real ones, using modern AI development tools, sitting in the same office, whose job is to build what you tell them the market needs. Your expertise becomes leverage rather than capacity. You will also have an unusual proving ground. Onni's own portfolio gives you a large, real, and immediately available book of assessments to work on, which means the product gets tested against genuine complexity rather than sample data. And this is a product with a clear path. Valorem is one of the businesses Onni Capital intends to grow into a standalone company. Being the domain authority in a software company at this stage is a materially different position than being one of many consultants in a practice. How We Work Onni Capital is being designed as a high ownership, low bureaucracy team. We work in small project groups, test ideas quickly, put early products in front of users, and make decisions based on evidence rather than hierarchy. Team members are expected to: Challenge assumptions and communicate directly Take responsibility for outcomes, not simply produce recommendations Use modern AI tools to work faster and produce better results Share unfinished work early and improve it through feedback Move comfortably between strategic analysis and hands on execution Know when to continue investing in an idea and when to stop Operate effectively without a detailed playbook This is not a role for someone who wants months of consensus building, a rigid job description, or a narrowly defined set of responsibilities. It is for someone who learns quickly, takes initiative, enjoys solving ambiguous problems, and wants to help build something from the ground up. What You Will Do Practice Review property assessments across residential, commercial, industrial, and mixed use assets, and identify where an assessment is wrong and why Build and argue appeal cases, including comparable selection, income approach analysis, cost approach analysis, and market evidence Represent clients and Onni entities through the appeal process, including assessment authority negotiation and appeal board hearings Manage the appeal calendar across jurisdictions, including deadlines, filings, and evidence requirements Quantify and report tax savings achieved, which is the number the business is measured on Product Work directly with the product and engineering team to translate assessment methodology into product logic, including valuation approaches, comparable selection, and appeal argument structure Define what good output looks like and set the quality standard the platform is measured against Test the platform against real assessments and real appeals, and be honest about where it is not yet good enough Prioritise the product roadmap from a practitioner's view of what actually saves time and what only looks impressive in a demo Advise on jurisdictional expansion, including which markets to build for next and what each one requires Commercial Support sales, including demonstrations, prospect conversations, and technical credibility with sophisticated buyers Onboard and support customers, including training and ongoing advisory Build relationships across the property tax and assessment community, including assessors, appraisers, brokers, and industry bodies Contribute to positioning and content that establishes Valorem's credibility in the market What You Bring Five or more years in property tax assessment and appeals, at a specialist consultancy, an assessment authority, an appraisal firm, or in house at a large property owner A track record of successful appeals you can speak to specifically, including the argument that won and the savings delivered Deep command of valuation methodology, including income, cost, and direct comparison approaches Working knowledge of assessment legislation, appeal procedure, and evidence requirements in at least one major North American jurisdiction, with the ability to learn others

Within the first 90 days: You have reviewed a meaningful portion of Onni's own assessment portfolio and identified where appeals are worth filing You have a documented view of where the platform's analysis is right, where it is wrong, and what should be fixed first The appeal calendar across relevant jurisdictions is mapped, with deadlines and evidence requirements captured The product team has a prioritised list of methodology improvements coming from you rather than from guesswork Within the first year: Appeals filed on behalf of clients and Onni entities have produced quantifiable, reported tax savings The platform's comparable selection and valuation logic reflects real practitioner judgment rather than generic modelling You can point to analysis that used to take a day and now takes minutes, at a quality you are willing to sign Valorem has expanded into at least one additional jurisdiction, with the requirements properly built rather than assumed Prospects who do this work themselves come away from a demonstration believing the product knows what it is doing Customers are being onboarded and supported without every question escalating to you Methodology, evidence standards, and jurisdictional requirements are documented inside the product rather than living only in your head What Makes This Role Different You will practice and productise at the same time. In a single quarter, you may be involved in: Winning an appeal on a commercial asset and quantifying the savings Sitting with an engineer to explain why the comparable selection logic is wrong Testing the platform against an assessment you already know the answer to Deciding which jurisdiction Valorem builds for next Demonstrating the product to a prospect who does this work themselves and will spot anything false Watching a piece of analysis that used to take you a day happen in minutes, and then improving it The expectation is high ownership. You are the reason customers will believe this product knows what it is doing. The Onni Capital
