About Thesis Driven

Over the past 24 months, Thesis Driven has become the premier publication covering the future of the built world and the evolving real estate industry.

• Strong editorial judgment and intuition for what readers value and will pay for
• Curiosity about emerging technologies and how they shape the built environment
• Collaborative, creative, and entrepreneurial mindset
• Ability to work independently, take feedback well, and thrive in a fast-moving environment
