Founding Software Engineer

At The Flex, we believe renting a home should be as effortless as booking a ride.

Our mission is ambitious: enable anyone to live anywhere, anytime, without friction.

Powered by Base360.ai, our proprietary technology platform, we are building the operating system for modern renting—automating operations, connecting fragmented systems, and creating seamless experiences for guests, landlords, and operators across the world.

We're looking for a Founding Software Engineer to help architect and build the technology that powers the future of The Flex.

This is not a typical engineering role.

You'll work directly with the founder, influence product strategy, make architectural decisions, and build systems that become the foundation of a global business.

You'll have extraordinary ownership, responsibility, and impact from day one.

Design, build, and launch the software that powers bookings, pricing, payments, operations, communications, and guest experiences.

Make key technical decisions and help define the long-term architecture of Base360.ai.

Develop workflows and systems that automate operational processes across multiple countries and thousands of stays.

Build AI-powered tools, agents, and workflows that improve productivity, decision-making, and customer experience.

Develop and maintain integrations with platforms including Airbnb, Hostaway, Stripe, Twilio, Google, OpenAI, and other strategic partners.

Operate with urgency and ownership, turning ideas into production-ready solutions quickly and effectively.

• Strong software engineering fundamentals

• Experience building production-grade applications

• Strong understanding of APIs, databases, and system design

• Product mindset and customer obsession

• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision

• Strong problem-solving ability

• High level of ownership and accountability

• Startup experience

• Experience with AI products or LLM integrations

• Experience building SaaS products

• Experience with FastAPI, React, AWS, or Supabase

• Marketplace, travel, or PropTech experience
  

Competitive compensation with meaningful upside for exceptional contributors.

Work from anywhere. We care about results, not hours.

As a Founding Software Engineer, you'll help create and scale Base360.ai—the technology platform that powers every aspect of The Flex.

From AI-powered workflows and booking systems to operational automation and intelligent decision-making, you'll build products that directly impact revenue, efficiency, and customer experience.

You won't just ship features.

You'll create systems that replace manual work, unlock scale, and become a competitive advantage for the company.

Work on challenges such as:

• Reservation synchronization

• Critical company operations are automated through systems you've built

• Base360.ai becomes a core competitive advantage

• New products are shipped rapidly and reliably

• Engineering velocity increases significantly

• AI-powered workflows are embedded across the business

• The platform is ready to scale internationally
  

Your work will directly shape how thousands of people live, travel, and experience cities.

You'll have significant influence over product, technology, and company direction.

Work closely with leadership and help define the future of the business.

Gain exposure to engineering, AI, product, operations, growth, and company-building.

• You're looking for a predictable corporate environment

• You prefer maintaining systems rather than building them

• You need constant direction and supervision

• You avoid ownership outside your immediate responsibilities

• You are uncomfortable with change, ambiguity, and rapid execution

If you're excited by building products, solving hard problems, leveraging AI, and helping create the operating system for modern renting, we'd love to hear from you.
