Location: Remote - USA

  

Employment Type: Salaried

  

Team: Fanatics Collectibles

  

 **About the Team**

Fanatics Collectibles is a new company working at the intersection of
collectibles and technology. Backed by some of the best investors, sports
properties and operators in the world, we are integrating with Fanatics’
global digital sports platform – which includes 900 sports relationships and
more than 81 million reachable fans - to reimagine the collectibles business
for the 21st century.

  

We are a startup building products to transform the trading card industry. We
aren’t a startup in the traditional sense, though. While we _are_ a small team
building new products from the ground up, we also have the backing of Fanatics
– the world’s largest sports merchandiser with over 900 sports relationships
and more than 81 million reachable fans. We have exclusive licensing deals
with the MLB, NFL and NBA and the products we build will be used by millions
of trading cards fans from day 1. We are out to reinvent the trading card
industry, which is a bold and ambitious mission.



  

### What does this mean as a member of the engineering team?

  

  * We move fast. We have a lot to do and are looking for folks who will drive projects to completion with a sense of urgency, but not at the expense of quality, scalability and performance.
  * We think about scale. The trading card market is large and we will be the de facto entry point into the hobby.
  * We’re pragmatic. We embrace new technologies, but not just for the sake of it. We like server-rendered HTML, using a PaaS for deployments, and writing enough tests to give us confidence but not striving for code coverage numbers just for the sake of it.
  * We are product-focused. We’re building products that will reach millions and always tie our work back to how it will add value for our users.

  

 **The Role**

We are building a multi-product ecosystem. We’re starting with auctions and
“Breaking” (think Twitch meets Ebay). We’re looking for software engineers who
love building to join our team and help invent new products. Our teams are
cross-functional and own the end-to-end implementation of features.

  

### Some indicators that this role may be a good fit for you:

  

  * You like ownership and autonomy – we’re a small team and rely on our engineers to take problems and run with them. We believe that trust is the foundation of high performing teams and will give you the space to do your best work.
  * You sweat the details – sometimes it’s the little things that make or break a user’s experience and you don’t stop until a feature is complete, polished and ready to ship.
  * You’re interested in working across the entire stack – strictly speaking, this isn’t necessary, but we would love it if you want to work across the entire tech stack.
  * You like to work collaboratively – our teams are cross functional and work closely with Product managers to arrive at solutions. You should enjoy working closely with people who have other strengths and value open, clear communication.

  

### Some things you may want to know about us:

  

  * We’re a small team (growing fast!) and everyone wears lots of hats.
  * We’re remote (Michigan, Colorado, New York, and more)
  * We like to think about our product and the people using it – even when working on deeply technical projects, we’re continuously thinking about how our work impacts our UX and the goals of the business.
  * We work hard, but not all the time. We have families that we like to spend time with.

  

### Additional indications that this is the right role for you:

  

  * 3+ years of software engineering experience
  * You’ve used (or are interested in) React or other frameworks either production or in your spare time
  * You have experience with Rails or Phoenix or some other backend framework for building products for the web
  * You have experience with (or are interested in learning) Elixir
  * Experience with SQL databases (you may even love Postgres as much as we do)

  

 **If You’re Interested**

Go ahead and submit your application. We’ll get back to you as soon as
possible and if it seems like there could be a good fit, we’ll set up some
time to chat at your earliest convenience.
