Job description

At The Flex, we believe renting a home should feel instant, intelligent, and effortless — as seamless as booking a ride. Our ambition is bold: enabling anyone to live anywhere, anytime, without friction. Powered by Base360.ai, our proprietary automation engine, we’re building the operating system for modern renting — connecting property data, orchestrating operations, and enabling seamless stays across continents. As a Founding Engineer, you will help design, build, and scale the core technology that The Flex is built on — from first principles. You’ll work across product, engineering, and operations, owning systems end-to-end: web apps, APIs, automation pipelines, integrations, and cloud infrastructure.

Requirements

- Strong experience building production systems (full-stack or backend-heavy) - Comfort working across web apps, APIs, and cloud infrastructure - Experience with FastAPI, React, and AWS (or equivalent stacks) - A bias toward shipping over perfection - High tolerance for ambiguity and changing requirements - An ownership mindset — you treat the product like it’s yours
