Chief of Staff

Overview Visa sponsorship is possible, relocation to the Netherlands is required. We hire (future) founders. What we do Everyone needs a home, yet the experience of renting - or renting out - is terrible. For this generation, housing is one of the most pressing problems. Solving it is urgent. Uprent is an AI agent for rental home search. We started by creating an experience where tenants find homes auto‑magically, while landlords rent out homes in days (soon hours, then minutes), with 10x lower fees, and no agents. We're ready to devote the next decades of our lives to completely redesigning the entire process: from the way people find and rent, to the homes themselves. Why does it take months to find a bearable home? Why do we still carry metal keys? Why can't we terminate a lease? How's it going? We're at 10,000+ users with zero marketing spend, growing purely through product quality. With a team of three people, we have built a product that condenses the rental process from months into days for tenants, and fills rentals in record time for landlords. We have raised two rounds of funding (undisclosed) and are now doubling the team from 3 to 6 to accelerate. Yury (CEO) & Alex (CTO) are repeat founders (€1M+ ARR). Founders Alex: previously Team Lead at a $500M revenue company at 22yo; codes since he was 14yo. Yury: Esports World Champion & Forbes 30u30 at 21yo (not in jail). Pierre (Founding Engineer): ex‑PropX, built systems handling 100k+ home listings and processing millions of rental contracts. What will you do You're like the second CEO. You will be involved in pretty much everything, working directly with Yury on tasks such as: Marketing Product Hiring Fundraising Finance Anything else that will pop up We're looking for Generalist + Can't stand chaos + Can write code at a junior level + High taste + Fast, iterative = You. We particularly love ex‑founders, though this is not required. If you're in the Netherlands, we don't care where you live - in Amsterdam, Zeeland, Limburg or a Frysk village. We will figure it out. If you're in Europe, we expect you to relocate to the Netherlands. We will assist in relocation and help find an affordable home. Working culture Both Yury and Alex have been building startups for years with zero breaks. We are an all‑engineer team, so our culture is pure geekery. We believe most problems are best solved through engineering. We reject the European work‑life balance. Greatness isn't achieved through balance. It is achieved through obsession. We work hard: 6 days a week, 12 hours a day. And we love it. We get to solve one of the most pressing problems of this generation, work with like‑minded builders, create a product we'll be proud to tell our grandkids about, and get rich if we succeed. We look for high‑agency individuals. We hope this culture will create an Uprent Mafia one day. Offer Salary: up to €50,000 (approx. $58k) Equity: 0.1% – 2.5% Sometimes, we can be flexible on the numbers You're a Founding Member. You'll get actual equity. This is as close as you can get to starting a company without taking on founder risks. We also pay for and manage your food, apartment cleaning, transport, etc. Right now, we pay what we can. As we hit revenue milestones or secure new funding, cash compensation will rise. Our goal is to eventually have a very small team of exceptional engineers, paid significantly above the market. We are able to sponsor your visa. Pipeline Application form Interview – short, more of a vibe check Test task Second interview – this is a more in-depth conversation. This is where you will ask your questions Test task (hardcore) Job offer and legal mumbo jumbo We are FAST All the steps above combined generally take less than 10 days. If you're equally quick, of course. We will get back to you within 24 hours, but probably much sooner. If you receive a reply within minutes, it's not AI. Yury reviews every application personally : #J-18808-Ljbffr
