Careers
Building a different kind
of property auction.
We're a small team. We work remotely. We move fast. We care about getting the details right.
What we're working on
Rapideal is a UK property auction platform for sellers whose properties are unlikely to move on the traditional market — probate, divorce, chain break, downsizing, relocation, developer exit. We connect these sellers with specialist buyers: cash, vendor finance, bridging, joint venture.
Each property goes through a 7-day sealed-bid auction with a sprint final in the last 60 minutes. We hold a £500 refundable deposit to align incentives. We take a 1.5% completion fee on accepted offers. That's the whole business model.
How we work
- Remote-first. UK-based preferred but not required.
- Async by default, sync when needed.
- Long-form written specs. Code reviews are detailed.
- Production is a single VPS running uvicorn. No microservices, no Kubernetes, no serverless.
- We measure success by what we ship, not what we plan.
What we don't do
- We are not an estate agency. We don't take listings from buyers, we don't host viewings, we don't do valuations.
- We are not a high-street auction house. All bidding is online. No physical auctions.
- We do not handle conveyancing. Solicitors handle that off-platform.
Open positions
We're not actively hiring right now — but we keep a small list of people who'd be a good fit for the kind of work we do. If that sounds like you, send us a note.
