Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense. After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing.

Flex is looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join our core platform team. We want engineers with ideas (because they’ll definitely be heard on our small and tight-knit team) and ambition! Successful devs will feel comfortable in a startup environment and will be happy to work in a remote-first team with a lot of independence. As a Staff Engineer at Flex, you’ll help set technical direction and shape the long-term architecture of our backend services while still being hands-on with coding and delivery. You will collaborate across engineering, product, design, and other stakeholders to ensure scalable, reliable, and impactful systems that power consumer experiences, partner integrations, and our core business platforms. You’ll also play a critical role in mentoring engineers, elevating technical standards, and ensuring the success of projects end-to-end.

Life at Flex:
We understand that it takes a diverse team of highly intelligent, curious, determined, empathetic, and self aware people to grow a successful company. Our HQ is located in New York City, but we have employees located throughout the US, Australia, Canada and South America. We are growing quickly, but deliberately, with a focus on building an inclusive culture. Our dynamic team has incredible perspectives to share, just as we know you do, and we take great pride in being an equal opportunity workplace.
We offer many employee benefits & perks. For full-time U.S based positions we offer:
For full time non-US employees, we offer
Flex is a simple app that’s changing the way the world pays and collects rent. Our technology makes the 1st of the month easy for renters and properties.
For renters, we pay the rent on the 1st and let you pay it back when it works better for your budget. We help you buy some time (or whatever else you’re eyeing).
For properties, we help you collect more and stress less. And we do the previously impossible by turning rent collection into a marketable amenity.
WHAT WE STAND FOR
•We believe you should be able to choose when you pay your bills. The flexibility of buy-now-pay-later has forever changed the way the world makes purchases. We believe the same flexibility should be available for one of life’s #1 expenses: rent.
•We believe in the win-win. We like helping people keep commitments. With our technology, properties get the rent and renters get the time. The future is flexible.
•We believe in the end of rent regret. Sharing human spaces used to be easier. But then payment came into the picture and rent regret was born. The worst part of rent regret is that it separates us from each other. We’re committed to solving rent regret forever.
