Lead Full-Stack Engineer
Join the team redefining the future of global living.
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.
If you’re driven by technical ownership, system architecture, and building platforms that operate at real-world scale, this role puts you at the center of how millions of people move, live, and experience the world.
What You’ll Build
As a Lead Full-Stack Engineer, you will own the architecture and technical direction of The Flex platform — spanning web applications, APIs, automation engines, and cloud infrastructure.
You’ll lead by building. You’ll design systems, set standards, and make key technical decisions while remaining deeply hands-on across the stack.
This is not a people-management role. It’s a technical leadership role for someone who wants to shape systems, mentor by example, and build platforms that scale globally.
Your Mission
- Own the Architecture Define and evolve the technical architecture powering bookings, payments, availability, pricing, and guest experience.
- Lead by Building Deliver critical features end-to-end across frontend, backend, and infrastructure — setting the bar for quality and speed.
- Design API-First Platforms Architect scalable, well-structured APIs that connect Base360.ai to internal tools and external partners.
- Automate the Business Build event-driven services and intelligent workflows that replace manual operations across the company.
- Integrate at Scale Own and evolve deep integrations with platforms such as Airbnb, Stripe, Hostaway, and Twilio.
- Ship with Confidence Deploy and operate serverless infrastructure on AWS, ensuring reliability, security, and global performance.
- Solve the Hard Stuff Lead solutions for real-time booking sync, pricing intelligence, keyless access logic, AI-powered alerts, and live operational dashboards.
- Raise the Bar Establish best practices, review critical code, and mentor engineers through example and technical clarity.
