Location: Kolkatta

Employment Type: Full-time

About the Role

We are looking for a Custom Website Developer who has hands‑on experience building and managing real estate/property portals – not just basic websites. You will be responsible for developing, customizing, and maintaining our real estate platform with features like property listing management, advanced filters, maps, lead capture, and admin controls.

If you’ve previously worked on portals like 99acres, Magicbricks, Housing‑style platforms (or similar custom portals), this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities

1. Portal Development & Customization
   • Develop and maintain a custom real‑estate portal (front‑end + back‑end) with property listing pages (projects, flats, plots, commercial, rental, resale, etc.).
   • Advanced search & filters (location, budget, BHK, property type, amenities, status, etc.).
   • Map view (Google Maps or similar integration).
   • Shortlist/favourite properties, compare properties, inquiry forms.
   • Build a robust admin panel to add/edit/approve/reject listings, manage builders, dealers, owners, and buyer/tenant accounts, control banners, featured listings, city/area master data, amenities, etc.
2. User & Role Management
   • Implement role‑based access for Buyers/Tenants, Owners, Dealers/Builders, Admin/Sub‑admin.
   • Manage login, signup, password reset, and profile sections for each user type.
3. Integrations & Automation
   • Integrate lead capture forms with email/WhatsApp/CRM.
   • Payment gateway for premium listings/subscriptions (if required).
   • Third‑party APIs (maps, location search, maybe SMS/WhatsApp gateways).
   • Set up property alert system (email/WhatsApp) for saved searches or new listings.
4. Performance, Security & Scalability
   • Optimize portal for speed, SEO, and mobile responsiveness.
   • Ensure data security, form validations, and protection against basic vulnerabilities (XSS, SQL injection, etc.).
   • Structure the codebase to handle a large number of listings, users, and queries.
5. Maintenance & New Features
   • Fix bugs, improve existing features, and build new modules as business needs evolve.
   • Work closely with the founder/marketing team/design team to implement new ideas (blogs, project microsites, lead funnels, etc.).
   • Document features, APIs, and database structure properly.

Required Skills & Experience

Must-Have

• 2–5+ years of professional web development experience.
• Proven experience working on at least one real‑estate/property portal (client, company, or own product – links/portfolio required).
• Strong knowledge of at least one full‑stack web stack such as PHP (Laravel/CodeIgniter), Node.js, React/Next.js/Vue.js for front‑end.
• Solid understanding of database design (MySQL/PostgreSQL/similar), REST APIs, JSON, third‑party API integration.
• Experience building listing‑based websites (filters, pagination, search), admin panels and dashboards from scratch.
• Strong focus on clean, modular, maintainable code.

Good to Have

• Experience with Elasticsearch/Algolia/advanced search systems.
• Hands‑on experience with real‑estate data structures (projects, units, towers, inventory, pricing, status).
• Knowledge of SEO for portals (server‑side rendering, meta tags, schema markup for properties).
• Experience with AWS/VPS/cloud deployment and basic DevOps.
• Familiarity with integrating CRMs, WhatsApp APIs, or marketing tools.

Personal Attributes

• Solution‑oriented – understands business needs, not just code.
• Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, startup‑like environment.
• Able to take ownership of the portal end‑to‑end.
• Good at communication – explains tech constraints & possibilities clearly.
• Proactive in suggesting improvements in UX, speed, and structure.

What We Offer

• Opportunity to build and scale a flagship real‑estate portal from the ground up.
• Close collaboration with the founders and core team.
• Freedom to choose the best tools, tech stack, and architecture (within reason).
• Competitive salary and performance‑based growth.

How to Apply

1. Your CV / LinkedIn.
2. Links to real‑estate portals or listing platforms you’ve worked on (live links or demos).
3. Brief note on what exactly you built or handled in those projects (front‑end, back‑end, admin, integrations, etc.).
