Start immediately. Visa sponsorship is possible. We prefer in-person or hybrid work.

If you’ve been looking for a chance to build a generational company from Europe - without moving to the US - this is it.

We (3 people) have built an insane product that does rental search on auto-mode. Uprent will source homes, filter the best ones, schedule viewings, negotiate the deal, help you with the contract — everything.

Hundreds of people in the Netherlands are using Uprent every day. Many cannot imagine their life without Uprent. And we’re just getting started 📈

Why we do this

Humanity will soon get to Mars. But we still haven’t figured the housing market. Young people are in despair. They can’t get a place to rent. We MUST fix this. This is URGENT.

To do that, we need the most cracked engineers in Europe.


Working culture

Both Yury and Alex have been building startups for years with zero breaks. We only hire software engineers, so the team culture is pure software geekery — no distractions, just committed builders shipping daily.

We build small teams of 10x performers. This allows us to ship quicker and better than anyone else.

You can’t change the world if you work 9-6. At Uprent, we work 12-6. By 12-6, we mean 12 hours. 6 days a week.

This may sound like a lot. But frankly, we just enjoy this. You get to build cool stuff all day long; Solve the most important problem of our generation; And get rich on this (you will have actual equity). To us, that's a great deal!

We are extremely committed. Uprent is the work of our lives. We don't have an option to not succeed. The problem is too important.

Tech stack

SvelteKit

ElysiaJS

SurrealDB

All hosted on Fly.io.

We prioritize DX and use modern, sometimes experimental technologies. You might not be familiar with all of these yet, and that’s okay! They’re intuitive to learn, so you’ll get up to speed quickly and enjoy working with them.

We're looking for

  • Top 0.01% full-stack engineer
  • You wake up thinking about code and go to sleep thinking about code
  • You grind every day because you want to build something that actually matters
  • You like solving hard problems all day long
  • You move quickly, while producing high-quality code

We don't care about your age, sex, skin, location. We don’t care about “Years of experience” - world underestimates what a bunch of 20-year olds can do.

Presence in the Netherlands is required. We can sponsor your visa if you are not from Europe.

Offer

We'll be paying you between €40.000 and €54.000 annually. Most likely, we'll settle for a salary of €48.000.

We prefer a small team of 10x performers earning top-of-market salaries over a large team of average people earning average pay. This means that as soon as we hit revenue milestones or secure new funding, we’ll raise salaries to well above market.

We offer a huge equity package. You’re not just an engineer — you’re a Founding Engineer. You’ll get actual equity. This is as close as you can get to starting a company without taking on ‘founder risks'.

All the steps above combined generally take less than 10 business calendar days. If you’re equally quick, of course.
