Job description

  • Super cool industry: They serve the Amateur Sports / SportsTech space (they are the #1 in their space already, but that’s only like ~10% market share)
  • Diverse team, innovative culture: They strongly encourage and focus on hiring for diversity across all axes, which has led to an incredibly creative and innovative culture
  • Lots of growth in sight! They are making HUGE pivots to grow and take market share in an industry ripe for product-focused development to drive tons of new customers.
  • Unique balance of stability and growth: They’ve been around for 15+ years yet very small and nimble, with plenty of room for new “startup-like” initiatives and passionate innovators
  • An AI philosophy that doesn’t suck: They are AI-welcoming, but they want solid development fundamentals 1st (Good code and smart architecture will always rule the room).
  • Remote 1st, and rooted in that for almost their entire history … no RTOs happening here. They do remote RIGHT (with many awards to back them) … This includes remote workflows, async habits, and remote communication patterns that are well established.

Requirements

  • Strong, recent, production Backend coding execution with a Node / TypeScript focus
  • A highly product-focused engineering mentality
  • Proven depth in working and scaling with high-volume, high-scale products (ideally products with millions of users, using event-driven workflows, and asynchronous systems under heavy load)
  • Strong SQL relational database mastery
  • Demonstrated ability to mentor other engineers and clarify requirements during live coding, even when given ambiguous initiatives, without relying on AI tools as a crutch.
  • Connection to sports or passion mission-driven companies strongly preferred**

Benefits & conditions

The minimum salary for this role is $150K, with a budget of up to $185K base salary. If hired, you would also be eligible for a 5% bonus., This client offers a strong benefits package including the following:

  • 100% employer-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance premiums for both the employee and their entire family.

  • $1,500 annual learning and development stipend.
