Technical lead
Pubblicato il 23-08-2026 - SEDES in Roma
Sedes is an AI-native property operations platform, cross-asset by design for real estate operators in Europe and abroad.
Tenants talk to us entirely over Whats App: an AI agent handles maintenance requests, scheduling, and questions end to end, escalating to human operators when needed. Our goal is to create a Digital-Twin of all properties within a portfolio, so our Agents together with operators may orchestrate everything: rentals, obligations, compliance, cleaning and maintenance planning, and tenant communication. Live in production with paying clients; we are a Meta Whats App Tech Provider. The role Our current technical lead is transitioning out and will run a full structured handover with you. You will inherit a working, revenue-generating product and own it completely: architecture, roadmap, delivery, and eventually the engineering team. This is a true #1 technical seat. Depending on fit, this role becomes CTO. What you'll own A serverless API: 14 Express-on-Lambda microservices (Node 22, Type Script) behind API Gateway, Cognito auth, Event Bridge scheduling, all on AWS eu-south-1 Supabase Postgres with PGVector RAG; no ORM, typed data layer The AI core: an Open AI Agents SDK orchestrator with ~35 tools and 4 personas, multi-provider model routing (Open AI + Gemini via Vertex), eval harnesses with LLM judges Whats App Cloud API integration: templates, webhooks, encrypted Flows A separate document-AI platform (Bun/Type Script, CDK, Qdrant, Min IO, ERPNext) that extracts structured financial data from ingested documents.
What you'll do Ship product weekly across the full stack; this is a hands-on coding role Own reliability of a system real tenants depend on daily Mature the engineering foundation: CI/CD, E2 E testing, and deploy automation currently don't exist, and we'll be honest that this is your first 90 days Drive the AI agent roadmap: new tools, personas, eval coverage, model routing Work directly with founders and clients to turn operator pain into features. You Must have Senior Type Script, full stack (our entire codebase is TS) AWS serverless in production (Lambda, API Gateway, Cognito, IAM) Shipped LLM-powered features to real users: agents with tools, RAG, evals. This is core product, not a bolt-on High agency: you have run systems where you were the last line of defence.
