Senior Software Engineer (Remote)

At Residesk, we’re not just talking about AI – we’re shipping real products that use LLMs to revolutionize the rental experience. We’re a lean, product-focused team that moves fast, ships often, and makes a tangible impact on our users’ lives. If you’re tired of companies that just talk about innovation and want to join a team that actually delivers, we want to hear from you!

The Role

We’re seeking two Senior Software Engineers to join our high-impact team in New York City (remote candidates considered). You’ll be at the forefront of applied GenAI in the real estate sector, turning cutting-edge technology into practical solutions that users love.

What Sets Us Apart

• We Actually Ship: At Residesk, “moving fast” isn’t just a slogan. We build and ship products rapidly, allowing you to see your work make a real-world impact.
• Practical LLM Application: We’re beyond the hype, using LLMs to solve real problems for real users. You’ll work with state-of-the-art AI technology in practical, innovative ways.
• True Autonomy with Support: In our startup environment, you’ll have the freedom to identify key issues and the resources to delegate tasks as needed. No more wearing all the hats – focus on what truly matters.

What You’ll Do

• Design, develop, and ship product features that leverage LLMs to solve real user problems
• Work across the full stack, focusing on rapid iteration and practical implementation
• Make key architectural decisions that shape our technical roadmap
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to turn complex problems into elegant, shipped solutions
• Identify bottlenecks or inefficiencies and have the resources to delegate or solve them

What We’re Looking For

• 4-5 years of software engineering experience (minimum 2 years)
• Strong proficiency in Node.js and SQL (PostgreSQL preferred)
• Experience with React, AWS/Heroku, and working with LLMs is a plus
• Proven track record of shipping products in previous roles
• Ability to work autonomously and take ownership of projects from idea to deployment
• Product-focused mindset with full-stack capabilities
• Excitement about applying AI technologies to solve practical, sometimes unsexy problems

Ideal Candidate

• Thrives in a fast-paced environment where shipping is the priority
• Enjoys the challenge of applying cutting-edge technology to real-world problems
• Demonstrates flexibility and can adapt quickly as priorities shift
• Has a founder’s mindset – you see problems as opportunities and take initiative to solve them

What We Offer

• Opportunity to work with and shape the practical application of GenAI in a massive industry
• High level of autonomy with the resources to delegate when needed
• A technical, product-focused team that values your input and impact
• Chance to significantly influence product direction in a fast-growing startup

Our Tech Stack

• Node.js, React, PostgreSQL, Snowflake
• LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, etc.) – applied practically, not just theoretically
• AWS, Heroku
• Retool (familiarity is a bonus)

Location

NYC-based preferred, but open to remote candidates willing to travel occasionally for team meetings.

At Residesk, we’re not building slide decks about AI – we’re building and shipping real products that use AI to make a difference. If you’re ready to work in an environment where your code ships, your ideas matter, and you have the support to focus on what’s truly important, apply now. Join us in reshaping the rental industry with technology that works!
