Overview
Join the mission transforming how the world lives and moves. At The Flex, we believe renting a home should be instant, intelligent, and effortless — as seamless as tapping a button. Our vision: a world where anyone can live anywhere, without friction or borders. Powered by Base360.ai, our proprietary automation platform, we’re building the operating system of modern rentals — linking property data, orchestrating operations, and powering the intelligent systems behind every stay, in every city.
What You’ll Build
You’ll work on the foundation of The Flex platform — building and scaling the systems behind instant bookings, automated logistics, smart access, and predictive operations. You’ll take messy real-world processes and turn them into clean, automated, production‑grade software that powers thousands of stays around the world. Your work will directly influence how people live, travel, and experience true flexibility across borders.
Your Mission
* Build Core Services — Develop fast, reliable APIs and backend workflows that support global bookings, payments, and operations.
* Automate the Everyday — Craft microservices and serverless systems that eliminate repetitive tasks and enable fully automated stays.
* Connect the Ecosystem — Build integrations between Base360.ai and partners like Airbnb, Stripe, Twilio, and Hostaway.
* Engineer for Scale — Design fault‑tolerant, event‑driven systems that process millions of real‑time events across countries.
* Work Across Teams — Collaborate with product, data, operations, and engineering to bring automation from idea → code → real‑world execution.
* Ship Fast, Improve Faster — Prototype, iterate, measure, and scale what delivers impact.
You’re a Great Fit If You Have
* Experience with Node.js, React, or Python (FastAPI).
* Familiarity with AWS (especially serverless) and API‑driven development.
* Hands‑on experience with databases, microservices, or distributed systems.
* A passion for automation, AI‑driven systems, and real‑world problem solving.
* A builder’s mindset — pragmatic, fast, clean, and impact‑focused.
* A bias toward action — you solve problems by shipping, not talking.
Why You’ll Love It Here
* Real Influence — Your software will automate complex operations and power thousands of stays worldwide.
* A Global Vision, A Small Team — High ownership, zero bureaucracy, and the chance to build industry‑defining systems.
* Autonomy & Creativity — Freedom to make big decisions, experiment, and shape the technical direction.
* Performance‑Based Rewards — Competitive compensation and real upside for exceptional contributors.
* Remote‑First Culture — Work from anywhere. We optimize for results, not hours.
