Fullstack Developer - Real Estate Integration Tool
We’re looking for a skilled Fullstack Developer (Node.js or Laravel) to build a clean and reliable real estate integration tool.
This system will import property data (OpenImmo XML), optimize media, and expose everything through a lightweight API for WordPress and Webflow.
This is not a “large platform build.”
It’s a well-defined MVP that we will use repeatedly in client projects (real estate websites).
We value clean structure, stability, and straightforward communication.
