We are doubling down on our success and scaling our fully remote engineering team to build even more industry-leading features to further modernize the antiquated world of real estate investing.
Our next phase requires high agility, rapid experimentation, and prototyping new features as we build a digital operating system for real estate investors.
What You'll Do
Your experience, insight and technical leadership will help guide how the team builds new features for an industry-leading customer-facing SaaS web application used by thousands of real estate investors to manage their real estate investing business.
The front-end is served in Laravel Blade templates and pages contain VueJS components. Vue components receive and submit their data via an HTTP JSON API built with Laravel application. We are moving toward a single-page application.

You’ll collaborate with product managers to build brand-new software features and business-critical integrations with internal/external APIs and data warehouses.
Tasks During a Typical Day
On Mondays, a 2-hour meeting to sync with the team and plan this week’s work. The product manager proposes new feature ideas during this meeting. Your feedback is incorporated into the final requirements.
Your calendar is mostly free of meetings, with ample time for writing code. You communicate your progress by moving tickets across a Kanban board and keep in touch with teammates using Slack.
Another engineer on the team publishes a PR and requests your review. You review and provide feedback before the end of the day or first thing tomorrow.
A user-reported bug is reported. The product manager says it's a high priority and should be fixed right away. You stash your work in progress feature and write a test to confirm the bug exists, then publish a PR describing the problem and the fix. Another engineer reviews your PR and you merge it after confirming the test suite and build pass. You deploy the fix to the Staging environment by running an automated script. The product manager reviews the fix and confirms it as working. You deploy the fix to production by running an automated script.
You know of an open-source library that would solve a problem in our codebase. You build a proof of concept PR and give a demo to advocate adopting it during the weekly Engineering Team Meeting.
Your next ticket is to build a new feature and integrate it into an existing FlipperForce tool. After researching the system, you propose a rough diagram and highlight its integration points to the engineering team. You incorporate your peer’s feedback and begin implementation.
