properti is building Europe's first AI-native platform brokerage. We are not a broker that uses software - we are a platform on which brokers work. The distinction is fundamental: every product decision we make today will shape 1'000+ agents, several countries, and millions of transaction data points within the next five years.
Our platform serves three distinct user groups: Hired Agents (our internal brokers), Partner Agents (independent brokers who plug into our infrastructure via a roll-up and partnership model), and Consumers (sellers and buyers). Each has different needs, different journeys, different economics. All three run on the same platform foundation. Keeping that foundation coherent, scalable and AI-native is the core architectural challenge - and it is yours to own.
This is where you come in. You are the person who ensures that our platform not only works today, but still scales in three years - technically, product-wise, and on the AI layer. You are the bridge between Product, Engineering and AI Architecture across all three user groups.
One thing upfront: This is a hands-on role. You architect, and you build. You research, you prototype, you ship. If your last five years have been PowerPoint decks and steering committees, this is the wrong role. If you want to ship features at a classic SaaS company, also wrong. If you want to rebuild an industry from the ground up, with your hands in the machine, it is the right one.
properti is built on a simple belief: output beats hierarchy. We organise in small, outcome-driven pods, not (anymore) in departments with management layers. Every pod owns a specific business outcome end-to-end - from idea to production to measurement.
What that means concretely for this role:
If you are looking for a role where you manage more than you build, this is not for you. If you are looking for a role where your output is visible, measurable, and unfiltered - welcome. You will work horizontally across all of them, with your strongest anchor in the AI Foundation Pod. Your job is to make sure the pods ship coherently - that what the Agent Platform Pod builds works for Partner Agents, that what Consumer Experience ships plugs into the same AI agents that Operations uses, and that we never end up with three parallel architectures for the same problem.
Responsibilities
1. End-to-end platform architecture
You define how the platform serves Hired Agents, Partner Agents and Consumers from one coherent foundation - not three parallel products. Seller Experience, Buyer Experience, CRM layer and AI layer will fit together on one platform. You decide what belongs on the platform - and what does not. You keep the architecture simple, even when pressure mounts to make it complex.
2. AI-First Foundation
You are co-architect of our 5-Layer AI-First Foundation (Data, Knowledge, Automation, Agents, Interface). You decide which processes run agentically, which stay human, and where the handoff sits. You translate AI capabilities into concrete product mechanics.
3. Data model and intelligence layer
You give input to the central data model. Every lead, every listing, every transaction, every interaction follows a clear logic. This is the foundation that enables properti to operate as an intelligence layer.
4. Product-Engineering interface
You are the person who, in case of doubt, decides whether a new capability is built, bought, or dropped. You prioritise by business impact, not by technical elegance. You say no to good ideas.
5. Partner Agent platform layer
Partner Agents are the engine of our next scaling phase. They do not get a separate product. You ensure the architecture supports this multi-tenant, permission-layered reality from day one.
