This is an equity only opportunity at this time (no salary).
Commercial real estate transactions represent hundreds of billions of dollars annually, yet the technology supporting them remains intermediary-heavy, fragmented and outdated. REItrades is building the infrastructure to modernize this process and unlock a significantly more efficient and scalable way to transact.
REItrades is an online CRE marketplace designed for streamlined investment sales. We are building an AI-powered digital marketing and transaction management platform that connects sellers directly with our growing network of pre-vetted buyers, which now includes over 5,800 decision makers from 3,300+ CRE investment firms.
We’ve already built and launched a beta version of the platform, and are now moving into the next stage of product refinement, and scale. We’re looking for a senior full-stack engineer to join our team, take ownership of the next stage of platform development, and be deeply hands-on in building and scaling a platform with two-sided traction and significant upside potential.
This is not a contract role, and we’re not looking for a third-party software development firm.
The stack:
We’ve built a high-performance, production-ready foundation designed to handle real transaction volume and complexity. The core system is live and now it’s about scaling it, extending it, and building the next layer on top.
• Backend: Rust (Actix/Axum) — built for high performance, memory safety, and efficient concurrency
• Frontend: Vue.js — clean, fast, component-based UI
• Database: PostgreSQL — reliable, scalable data layer
• Infrastructure: GCP (Cloud Run, Cloud SQL) — auto-scaling, production-ready
• DevOps: Terraform — infrastructure as code
• Architecture: Modular, service-oriented system built to scale
What we’re looking for:
• Strong full-stack builder with experience owning systems end-to-end
• Has built from scratch or been an early engineer at a startup
• Comfortable making architectural and product decisions independently
• Able to take over and evolve an existing codebase
Compensation & Structure:
Meaningful equity as a founding technical partner, with a technical leadership role shaping the platform and a transition to salary once capital is raised.
If you’re looking for a rare opportunity to step into a live product and help build something with significant upside, let’s talk!
