Cohabs Senior Full Stack Engineer (Contract)

Company

Cohabs is a fast-growing co-living startup currently active in Brussels and New York. We buy, renovate, and operate beautiful houses located in the liveliest parts of town. These shared houses offer extensive communal spaces for the 15-20 members to share a meal together, watch a movie, work out or simply lay back after a hard day’s work. The community formed within the houses, and the houses with one another, is what we take the most pride in.

Started just over 3 years ago, we are expanding rapidly and now opening up a handful of key first roles within the company. We recently closed a 15M€ round to keep on charging forward. Join a team of bright, relentless entrepreneurs and help us craft the future of living.
