IMPORTANT:

This is a high-bar, builder-focused role.

We are ONLY considering candidates who have demonstrated exceptional builder ability, including owning and shipping real, customer-facing products.

Experience limited to internal tools or purely execution-based roles will NOT be considered. Profiles without clear evidence of ownership, product impact, or independent building (side projects, startups, GitHub) will NOT be considered.


Expert Software Product Engineer - Front End Leaning (React / TypeScript) – NYC (Onsite)

About the Company

We’re a venture-backed, early-stage startup building a marketplace transforming how brands discover and execute partnerships across sports, media, and live events.

This is a massive, historically offline market now being rebuilt from the ground up — introducing transparency, liquidity, and data into a space that has never had it. The opportunity sits at the intersection of marketplaces, AdTech, and real-world experiences, with clear potential to become a category-defining company.

The team is small, fast-moving, and product-focused, already working with major enterprise customers and scaling quickly.


The Opportunity

We’re hiring a Founding / Product Engineer (frontend-leaning) to join a small, high-caliber team and build the core product from 0→1.

This is a role for builders. You’ll own and ship critical, customer-facing features end-to-end — from idea to production — with direct impact on users and revenue.

You’ll work closely with founders, design, and customers, operating with high ownership, high expectations, and minimal hand-holding.


Working Style

  • Highly in-person (NYC, 5–6 days/week)
  • Fast-paced, high ownership environment
  • Engineers are expected to take ideas from 0→1 with minimal direction
  • Strong emphasis on quality, speed, and taste


What You’ll Do

  • Own and ship core frontend features end-to-end (design → production)
  • Building customer-facing features used in production
  • Experience working on products with real users, transactions, or scale
  • Build scalable, high-performance UI systems using React + TypeScript
  • Work closely with founders, design, and users to shape product direction
  • Contribute to product decisions, not just execution
  • Operate across the stack when needed (Node, GraphQL, APIs)
  • Thrive in a fast-paced, in-person startup environment


Tech Stack

  • Frontend: React, TypeScript, Next.js
  • Backend: Node.js, GraphQL, Prisma
  • Data: PostgreSQL, Redis, vector DBs
  • Infra: Cloud-based modern infrastructure
  • Integrations: Payments, auth, analytics, and AI APIs


Who This Is For

  • Engineers who build outside of their job
  • People who have launched products or side projects
  • Individuals who enjoy high ownership and moving quickly

Who This Is Not For

  • Engineers focused primarily on internal tools
  • Those looking for highly structured environments
  • Candidates without hands-on product-building experience


What We’re Looking For

  • Evidence of building products outside of work (side projects, startups, open source)
  • Track record of shipping quickly and owning features end-to-end
  • Strong product intuition and attention to UX/detail
  • Strong TypeScript + React experience
  • Experience building and shipping real, customer-facing product features
  • Evidence of building outside of work (side projects, startups, open source, hackathons)
  • Ability to own features end-to-end (frontend + some backend exposure)
  • Strong product sense and attention to detail
  • Experience building core product features (not internal tools)
  • Background from top-tier engineering orgs or high-growth startups
  • Strong product sense and ownership mentality
  • Ability to move fast and ship high-quality code
  • Early-career, high-trajectory profile preferred (0–5 years)
  • Bonus: founder experience, hackathons, or active GitHub presence, marketplace/product experience


Compensation

  • Base: $200K–$250K USD
  • Equity: 1-5%
  • Location: NYC (5–6 days onsite)


Why This Role

  • Founding-level impact on a high-growth product
  • Small, elite engineering team
  • Direct ownership of core features and product direction
  • Opportunity to build in a massive, underbuilt market
