Junior Full-Stack Engineer

About us

In the UK, ?5.2 billion is locked up in traditional deposit schemes that offer a poor experience for everyone. Our vision is to change that and make every rental experience positive for landlords, agents, and tenants.

Our solution allows tenants to secure a new home with a small check-in fee instead of paying for a costly deposit, whilst giving landlords up to double the protection of traditional deposits.

Over the last 5 years, we've helped over 30,000 tenants save ?25 million in upfront costs and provided increased rental protection on 2,000 properties. As well as improving our core product, we're identifying, testing and launching new innovations to make every rental experience a positive one.
