Frontend Engineer

About Sparen

Fast. Simple. Flexible. Real estate without the hassle.

Navigating real estate transactions is hard, especially for the first time. Believe it or not, over a million people decide to skip the traditional process altogether and go the DIY route, selling or buying properties on platforms like Facebook and Craigslist. It's a massive $150 billion market, but surprisingly, there aren't any solid solutions out there to make it easier. Well, that's where we come in.

We’re building the world’s first real estate marketplace that uses predictive algorithms rather than people to guide users through transactions in a matter of hours, rather than months.

About The Role

You'll have the opportunity to guide and support your fellow peers, executives, and hey, maybe even your own team of junior devs. Sharing your knowledge and expertise is where the magic happens.
