Vinny is on a mission to revolutionise the property management industry. Leveraging cutting-edge technology, we aim to transform a sector traditionally managed through paperwork and office-bound processes. We’re elevating the experience for those operating the world's largest asset class—property.

Our founding team, Rory and Johnny, has years of experience in property management and software engineering at some of the world's largest companies. As a small, close-knit team, we're looking for someone who shares our passion for innovation and wants to help turn our awesome MVP into a truly game-changing product.

We’re backed by prominent VC firms and angel investors with deep ties to the property sector.

About the Role

We’re seeking an experienced Backend Engineer to join our gen AI startup at the earliest stage. You’ll work closely with Rory, our CTO, and take direct ownership of key features, making a tangible impact on the product from day one.

As a Founding Engineer, you’ll have the freedom to operate in a greenfield environment, with high autonomy. You’ll need to understand customer needs and translate them into innovative code that pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in property management.

Compensation:

  • Up to £75k per annum (depending on experience)
  • Competitive ESOP (share options)

Perks:

  • Bi-weekly team lunches
  • Fully remote or hybrid working—your choice.
