Frontend Engineer

Company Overview

We are a start-up company that develops and provides 『REMETIS』, an integrated data platform that accelerates commercial real estate transactions. The service is currently being used by a growing number of financial institutions, construction and brokerage firms, with a focus on developers and funds.

Service Overview

Using 『REMETIS』 is simple; simply drag and drop property information in PDF files to create a database. The data is automatically linked to a map and integrated with various data such as past land sales history, rents, yields, land prices, and development examples, making it possible to search for information necessary for real estate investment and financing analysis in a one-stop operation. In addition, for real estate distribution operations, buying needs can be organized along with properties for sale, and sales and purchases are automatically matched. This systematically introduces properties, which tends to be a personalized process, thereby preventing omissions. The above enables speedy and highly accurate information gathering, profitability studies, and property introductions, as well as revitalization of meetings, standardization of operations, paperless operation, and reduction of opportunity loss due to missing out on good deals.

Why we are recruiting for this position

As the company continues to grow, we are encountering challenges arising from the balance between improving existing features and developing new ones to expand into new markets. As such, we're looking for a frontend engineer to join the team. You’ll work closely with the frontend engineers to discuss highly technical details, as well as the backend and product teams to help deliver impactful full-stack features. If you thrive in the fast-paced energy of a startup while still caring deeply about code quality — and you want to grow alongside the product you're building — this could be a great fit.

Who We Are

RESTAR provides a real estate and geographic information analysis/management platform (BtoB software) for real estate companies and financial institutions.

REMETIS integrates publicly available information and client data to lower real estate transaction costs and simplify complex investment workflows. We show real estate trends and market opportunities so that our clients can make better investment decisions. For our clients, REMETIS improves the underwriting and due diligence process by making it easier to access and understand data. It also promotes information sharing, business standardization, and paperless operations.
