We’re Changing the Rentals Industry
We’re a profitable, growth-stage company building industry-leading martech and data products for the rentals industry. While originally known for building and operating one of the U.S.’s largest rental marketplaces - Rentable, our focus has shifted to our category-leading AI and data SaaS products with triple-digit growth rates.
We’re a fully remote team of 100+ spread across the U.S. from coast to coast. We operate on a strict no a**holes policy and are proud to have built a community of highly performing people that take our work seriously, but not ourselves.
While we’ve raised $30MM+ to date from some of the world’s best investors, we’re profitable with a strong balance sheet and an indefinite runway. We pride ourselves on achieving rapid growth without having to incinerate capital.
If you like the idea of joining an industry-changing company made up of people who genuinely like each other, Rentable could be a great fit for you.
Your New team
The MavenAI Marketing Automation team empowers property managers to reach the perfect renter with data-driven, AI-powered social media content. We combine state of the art generative LLM models with real-world property data to craft engaging posts, then give customers an intuitive interface to approve and refine that content. Our teams responsibilities span multiple functions: content generation leveraging models like Anthropic’s Claude 4 and OpenAI’s GPT-4o; a Web Application utilizing a React/Tailwind frontend backed by Rails; and data integrations that ingests XML feeds and JSON APIs into MySQL for use by our AI workflows. We believe that mutual trust, relentless learning, and a bias for simplicity foster an inclusive culture where every engineer can thrive.
The Role
We’re seeking an experienced Software Engineering Lead to unite and grow these three functional areas, partner tightly with Product Management, and ensure our marketing automation suite scales reliably and elegantly. You’ll split your time between hands-on coding (≈50%), project execution (≈30%), and one-on-ones, coaching, and resource allocation (≈20%). If you excel at balancing technical vision with day-to-day delivery and are passionate about championing AI-driven developer tooling, we want to hear from you.
Responsibilities
- Lead a cross-functional engineering team across three functions: Content Generation, Application, Integrations —ensuring coverage and flexibility when priorities shift
- Conduct bi-weekly 1:1s with each engineer to drive growth, unblock challenges, and build trust
- Allocate resources alongside the PM to meet evolving roadmap goals
- Spend ~30% of your time on specs, issue creation in Linear, and sprint planning; ~50% contributing high-quality code; balance the remainder on coaching, reviews, and process improvements
- Architect and oversee the end-to-end generative workflow: from data ingestion (Sidekiq workers, MySQL) through AWS Bedrock calls to Claude 4 & GPT-4o, to content assembly and delivery
- Guide the Application in evolving our React + Tailwind UI and Rails API backend, collaborating closely with design for an optimal UX
- Partner with the Integrations engineer to define robust XML/JSON ingestion pipelines and data validation processes
- Drive adoption of AI-powered developer tools (e.g., Cursor, OpenAI Codex) to boost team productivity and code quality
- Mentor engineers in best practices around testing, CI/CD, and AWS ECS deployments
- Establish metrics and dashboards to monitor system health, team velocity, and quality
- Cultivate a culture of continuous improvement, knowledge sharing, and experimentation with the latest AI and cloud technologies
Qualifications
- 5+ years building and shipping B2B SaaS software, with 2+ years in an engineering lead or manager role
- Hands-on expertise in Ruby on Rails, Sidekiq, and AWS (ECS, Bedrock, RDS)
- Proven track record delivering React + Tailwind front-end applications integrated with Rails backends
- Experience architecting and scaling background-job-driven workflows and data ingestion pipelines
- Familiarity with generative AI ecosystems and their integration patterns
- Strong project management skills—comfortable writing specs, breaking down tasks, and driving sprints in Linear
- A collaborative leadership style: excellent communication, empathy, and the ability to influence non-technical stakeholders
- Passion for developer productivity and experience rolling out AI-based coding tools or similar innovations
- Thrives in fast-paced startup environments and adapts quickly to changing priorities
