Careers at Flatmir

Finding or letting an apartment in a new country is harder than it should be, especially if you’ve just arrived and don’t speak the local language fluently. You have three options, and every one of them costs you something:

The big portals: a signup, the local language, often your ID, and layers of agencies standing between you and the actual owner. An agent takes a month’s rent to do what a chat message does.
Short-stay platforms like Airbnb: fees, formalities, paperwork, legal responsibilities. Setting one up is a project, not an afternoon, which is why most people with a spare room or an empty flat never rent it out at all.
Telegram groups: free and full of real people, and still exhausting. You sit in ten of them scrolling the same ads twice over, and anything you post is buried within the hour.

What is Flatmir

Flatmir is the fourth option: a real-estate platform where everybody can easily list their place, and everybody can find one. It does this by using Telegram as the place of contact between seekers and posters, and flatmir.com as the main platform to search and share apartments. Open our bot, send a few photos of your room or flat, answer a couple of questions, and a minute later your listing is live on the flatmir.com map. No signup, no ID, no fee, and your phone number stays private.

That ease is the whole strategy. Less hassle means more listings get posted, and more listings mean someone looking for a place actually finds one — on a map they can filter by area, price and dates instead of a chat they have to scroll.

And because every owner is one message away on Telegram, Flatmir keeps the map honest by itself: we ask the owner whether the place is still available, they answer with one tap, and the listing either stays up or comes off the map. Nobody has to call a number that’s been dead for three months.

The product is live and growing.

Open roles

We’re a small, AI-native team: AI carries much of the routine work, so every person here does work that matters and sees its results. Both roles are remote, and can be part-time or full-time, depending on the situation — yours and ours.

Growth & Community Operator

Remote · part-time or full-time · Russian-speaking communities abroad

This job is making sure everyone who could use Flatmir knows it exists. That need is the same everywhere Russian speakers relocate and organise on Telegram, which is what makes it bigger than one city.

What you’ll do

This is not agency SMM and it isn’t a content calendar. It has four parts:

Reach

Find where our audience actually gathers: Telegram groups and channels first, but also VK, TikTok, Instagram and relocation bloggers.
Real places too: residence-permit and relocation agencies, language schools, Russian shops, residential complexes.
Learn each one honestly before we spend a dollar there: how alive it is, who runs it, what it costs, what’s allowed, what people there talk about.
Then open the door, ideally as an ongoing partnership rather than a one-off post.

Direct outreach

Write personally to people who are looking for a place right now.
Tell them about Flatmir genuinely, one person at a time. Never spam.

Businesses

Map the Russian-speaking real-estate world where you live: agencies, relocation and residence-permit services, property managers, building administrators.
Make it a proper list: who they are, what they do, how to reach them.
Then make the first contact and introduce Flatmir.

Read and report

Everything you run is measured, so the job is also telling us what it means and what to do next.
Which communities deserve money, what people complain about, where demand is moving.
We decide together, on the same numbers.

Who you are

Curious by nature: you’ll notice that one group brings twice the users of another, and you’ll want to know why.
You keep us posted without being chased.
You raise a problem while it’s still small.
You start with the awkward part of the job instead of working around it.
You’ll see exactly what your work produced (visits, new users, real listings and contacts), and so will we: shared numbers instead of reports about reports.

Where it can go

The playbook is portable. It works anywhere a large Russian-speaking community organises on Telegram and the local rental sites are a hassle.
Turkey, Georgia, Serbia, Montenegro, Northern Cyprus, the UAE, Thailand, Vietnam, Bali.
What doesn’t transfer is living inside the community.
So growth means turning your own playbook into something a local operator can run, then hiring and training those people.
The path: operator → a small outreach team under you → opening new markets → running several of them.

Also send us

Your languages, with an honest level for each: Russian, English, and the language of the country you live in.
A few ideas:
- How would you organise this work and keep track of it?
- How would you get to know the property communities where you live well enough to genuinely introduce Flatmir to them?
- Where would you start?
We’re open to guerrilla tactics: an unconventional idea that would actually work interests us more than a polished answer.

Visuals & Content Operator

Remote · part-time or full-time

Marketing matters, and one of its most important parts is having the right visuals and the right content: the things that catch people’s attention.

Doing it in an unusual way matters just as much: fresh ideas, again and again. And that is getting more important every day. AI is moving fast and solving more and more, but good content still takes a genuinely creative human mind.

What you’ll do

Work with our marketing team to come up with ideas.
Turn them into content of every kind: images, short videos, posts and stories.
For Telegram, Instagram, TikTok and our site.
Whatever catches the eye of someone looking for a home, or for a tenant.

Who you are

Someone with ideas nobody else had, who can also make them real.
Use any tool you like, AI ones included. The idea is yours.
Russian is a strong plus: most of our audience speaks it.

Also send us

A few pieces of your work (links are fine).
One idea: how would you catch the attention of someone who has just moved to a new country and needs a flat?
