Frontend Lead

Resights Copenhagen Full-time

Salary Competitive

Join one of Denmarks fastest growing B2B startups and be part of a company that values its customers so much that our median customer support ticket response time is 21 seconds!
Resights began with a vision to consolidate real estate data onto a single platform - to save time and improve decision making. No more cluttered spreadsheets or gut feelings 😵‍💫 Since then, we have through an unusual close relationship to customers, developed the platform immensely. Today, the platform caters for many different use cases. For example, you can find new investment properties, analyse cities and automate direct mails to property owners.

So, in a nutshell, that’s Resights. But in truth, what really defines us are the 45 people behind our software. A collection of team players who, in three years, have built one of the fastest growing startups in Denmark, boasting over 1200 customers. Even with healthy finances and no big VC check. Most importantly, we have had a lot of fun, because that's truly a part of our DNA (read our culture memo here ) 🧬

Product at Resights
Let us take you inside the Product team at Resights 🙌

We like to think of ourselves as sympathetic doers. By sympathetic doers, we mean being able to make serious progress super fast without sacrificing being human in the process. We laugh, we have fun, and we know what happens in each others’ lives.

We are approx. 20 people strong split between frontend, backend, designers and product managers. We are a mix of problem thinkers and solution designers, all working towards improving our product and paving the way for the future of the commercial real estate industry. We are a team where all thoughts and opinions are valued, no matter who it comes from. Our role is highly cross-functional, and we are working with all teams and customers to improve our product. We have direct access to everything we need. Customers, internal stakeholders and experts, so we literally have no excuses.

And now we are looking for a Frontend lead to help us grow and ensure our product scales the next 5 years!

Want to get a glimpse of what we are working on?
We’ve just launched a major new module and are currently sifting through customer feedback to improve it even further. Gotta love customer feedback! You can read about it here (Danish).

We’ve also just launched our new API and data offering on Snowflake, allowing anyone to access all public data through just one integration. How cool is that? 🥳

Just a few days ago, we launched a significant update to one of our popular modules, Trades. Based on learnings and customer feedback we decided to change the core UX and how we enrich it with even more useful data.

.. and a lot more interesting stuff that you will be part of launching!

Tech stack
Our tech stack consists of backend services and workflows written in Python. Everything is deployed to Kubernetes, using ArgoCD, and our data workflows are orchestrated by Argo Workflows. The frontend is a SPA written with VueJS. Finally, everything is hosted on AWS. Besides that, our engineers know their way around document-oriented databases (Elasticsearch) and SQL databases (PostgreSQL).

About you
Would you like to advance existing large-scale projects to the next level and ensure that we can continue developing outstanding features many years from now? Do you possess a clear vision of how to merge exceptional engineering with product thinking? Then we hope to get in contact with you!

At Resights, we consider data as our fundamental component. However, we don't just believe in data; we believe in the potential of transforming it into a product. We have endless ideas on how to work with data and turn it into something extraordinary, and we're looking for someone who shares the same excitement and is willing to take on the challenge of converting data into innovative products and features.

Resights' application is not your typical frontend; it's a place where you have to be creative and deeply excited about the possibilities of the data. It's a challenging animal where great engineering principles are put to the test.
