Ask HN: Who is hiring? (January 2026)

Commercial Real Estate (CRE) is the world’s largest asset class. The annual transaction volume is 10% of US GDP, yet the industry remains slow and archaic because data is locked in PDFs and Excel files. We are transforming CRE into an AI-native asset class by helping investors understand their own assets better.

Senior/Staff AI/IE engineer (NYC)

Senior/Staff Full-stack engineer (NYC)

- Own the infrastructure and UI that power high-value investment decisions. - Design scalable data pipelines and cloud architecture. - Tackle complex business logic with domain-driven design.

*Who are you:*

- You build things for fun, obsess over craft, and have a lot of product ideas. - You have proven experience shipping production software to solve *ambiguous business problems*. - You have experience with end-to-end NLP/IE and complex data extraction.

We are MiLaboratories, the team behind Platforma.bio & MiXCR. We are building the "OS for Biology"—a platform that processes terabytes of genomic data to accelerate antibody discovery and drug development.

We are a deep-tech research lab, not a typical SaaS. We work fully on-site in Bilbao because the complexity of our problems (high-performance computing + biological nuances) requires high-bandwidth, in-person collaboration.

We are hiring for two core roles:

1. Senior Go Engineer: You will build distributed systems for high-load genomic data processing. This is not CRUD. We need someone who understands memory management, concurrency, and algorithmic efficiency at scale.

2. Bioinformatics Developer (Antibody Discovery): You will work on the scientific core, developing blocks for NGS data analysis and antibody structure prediction. You should be fluent in both code and biology.

The Offer:

Comp: Top-tier EU salaries (~€90k - €120k).

Tax Advantage: Bizkaia has independent tax autonomy. You qualify for the "Special Impatriate Regime" (30% salary tax exemption + expense deductions).

The Reality: Your effective tax rate drops to ~15-20%, yielding a significantly higher net income than London or Berlin.

Stock: We grant ESOP and treat equity as a life-changing wealth vehicle, not a "nice to have."

Relocation: Comprehensive "Soft Landing" package (Visa, temporary housing, school search).

Location: Bilbao is a hidden gem—ocean, mountains, and high quality of life with a low cost of living.

Process: No HR screening. You will talk directly to the engineering team.

Email me (I am the CEO): stanp@milaboratories.com. Please mention "HN" in the subject and include your GitHub.

There's definitely a way to do it without downtime.
