Job description

Ever rented an apartment?

RentEngine makes it faster, easier, and cheaper. Hundreds of leasing teams in 40 states rely on RentEngine every day.

We launched in 2025 and are growing by 20%/month with a lean team of 10. We ship new features daily and announce weekly (rentengine.io/blog)

Now we're hiring to build even faster.

This is a high-growth, high-ownership startup. Everybody is an individual contributor, there are no middle managers or bureaucracy. You'll learn quick and get as much responsibility as you can handle. We look for 3 key traits:

• Agency: do you push the limits of what's possible and don't wait for permission
• Curiosity: are you eager to learn (from teammates, customers, and the world)
• Attention to detail: can you be proud of the work you create

If you align with our mission, keep reading and see if you're a fit.

What we're looking for

• Full-stack engineer with 1+ years of work experience
• Is comfortable with front-end and backend
• Balances the perfect solution with what works well enough but can deploy today
• Thrives in environments with ambiguity and experimentation

What you can expect / What you will do

• Ship A- product at A+ timeline. Know how to come back and turn the A- product into an A+ product
• High ownership, accountability & drive: Understand the product requirements, come up with fitting solutions, and test your own code to make sure it solves the problem
• Define and own solutions to large and complex systems, from the database to the UI
• Build products for the ops team & directly for our customers and users

Our Stack

• Serverless NextJS (hosted on Vercel)
• React
• Postgres / Supabase
• AWS
• Datadog monitoring

Location / Timezone

• Fully remote
• All of our work happens in American timezones

Compensation

• $100-$120k base salary
• 0.1-0.2% equity
• Employer-sponsored health insurance
• Unlimited PTO (we work very hard, but unplugged time-off is just as important)
