Hi! We're Bee Talents, an IT recruitment agency that has been helping clients from all around the world in building their technical teams since 2015. Today, we would like to invite you to participate in the recruitment process for one of our clients (currently on Stealth Mode).
Our client is a fast-growing AI-driven PropTech startup transforming the way homes are managed. Backed by a £2.7M pre-seed round and led by a highly experienced founding team from the UK and Poland, the company is building an AI-powered home management co-pilot that simplifies property ownership.

This is a unique opportunity to join an ambitious team and play a key role in shaping both the technology and product.
Product: the company's mission is to revolutionise the way homes are managed by building an AI-powered property management co-pilot. This AI agent will help clients with all things property-related - from finding an electrician or plumber to comparing home insurance quotes. Their platform will also digitise all information about a property to proactively manage maintenance and admin. The goal is to alleviate typical frustrations associated with property maintenance and repairs, thus improving marketplace efficiency and saving time and money.
